Perdida
E-MET Lyrics

The lyrics in E-MET's song "Perdida" describe the pain and longing that comes after losing someone they loved. The opening line, "Feito bala perdida atingiu o meu peito," (like a stray bullet, hit me in the chest) illustrates the suddenness and intensity of the heartbreak. The following line, "Você mudou meu coração pro lado direito" (You turned my heart to the right side) suggests that the person who left also caused a big shift in their life. The chorus repeats the idea that the person who left is still with them in the form of memories and longing - "Atravessou minha vida e a saudade, Tá morando comigo, que perigo" (You crossed my life and the longing is living with me, what a danger).

The second verse further expresses the depth of their pain. The line, "Agora sim, meu riso anda muito sem graça" (Now, my laughter is without fun) introduces the idea that their life has lost its joy. They feel stuck in their pain – "O mundo gira, mas pra mim o tempo não passa" (The world keeps turning, but time doesn't pass for me) – and the longing stays with them, as expressed by "E a saudade, aqui do lado esquerdo, Tá morando comigo, é castigo" (And the longing, here on my left side, is living with me, cruel punishment). The verse ends with the singer wishing they could go back in time to when things were different and they were happily in love.

In the final lines, the singer pleads for their lost love to come back to them. "Se eu fosse você, eu voltava pra mim" (If I were you, I would come back to me) is an expression of hopefulness and desperation, hoping that their love will return and they can find happiness again.

Overall, "Perdida" is a powerful song about the lingering heartbreak after a lost love.
