Fingir
Canto dos Malditos na Terra do Nunca Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pior pra você se quando me vê
Eu não estou tão só assim
E quando xinga na mesma certeza
De que o erro foi só meu
Se deu por perder a razão
E fiz questão de não reagir
Se alguém agora procurar por você
Talvez não ache mais em mim

(refrão 2x)
Fingir, mentir
Quando não se pode mais evitar
Correr e fugir daqui pra qualquer lugar

Pior foi ser alguém que eu nem eu mesmo sei fingir
E os egoistas, a lágrima que caiu de mim
Agora vão sorrir





(refrão 2x)

Overall Meaning

The song "Fingir" by Canto dos Malditos na Terra do Nunca talks about a situation where someone is facing accusations and blame from another person. The first verse describes how the accuser feels that the fault lies only with the person being accused, even though they are not entirely alone and are not entirely at fault. The person being accused chooses not to react to the accusations and maintains composure, even though they feel that the other person is being unreasonable. The second verse talks about how the person being accused was forced to pretend to be someone they are not, and how the selfish behavior of others caused them to shed tears. The chorus talks about how, when one is in a situation that is difficult to handle, the only possible solution may be to pretend or lie and run away to any place possible.


Overall, "Fingir" speaks to the idea of how people sometimes need to pretend or hide their true feelings to protect themselves. It also touches upon the theme of selfishness and how it can lead to pain and suffering for others.
