Odeio
Manu Gavassi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Eu odeio o seu sorriso
E seu jeito de falar
Eu odeio quando você me olha e dou risada sem pensar
Eu odeio quando você me chama para conversar
Eu odeio quando você vem, odeio mais ainda te esperar
Eu não sei o que fazer
Outra canção pra me fazer entender
Que eu te odeio tanto porque gosto de você
Eu nunca acreditei que era mesmo pra valer
Eu nunca admiti que me importava com você
Agora tanto faz, não quero mais me esconder
Estou falando na sua frente que eu te odeio
Por gostar tanto assim de você
Eu odeio dar conselhos que voce nem vai usar
Eu odeio quando voce fala dela e eu finjo não ligar
Eu odeio ver você com alguém que não tem nada a ver
Eu odeio ela ser tão sem graça
E você nem perceber
Eu não sei o que fazer
Não tem ninguém aqui pra me impedir de te escrever
Outra canção pra me fazer entender
Que eu te odeio tanto porque gosto de você
Eu nunca acreditei que era mesmo pra valer
Eu nunca admiti que me importava com você
Agora tanto faz não, quero mais me esconder
Estou falando na sua frente que eu te odeio
Por gostar tanto assim de
Você...
Vai acordar num dia e perceber
Que mesmo sendo um pouco estranha do meu jeito
Eu tentei te convencer
Que hoje eu acredito que é mesmo pra valer
Confesso, eu admito, que me importo com você
Agora tanto faz, não quero mais me esconder
Estou falando na sua frente que eu te odeio
Por gostar tanto assim de você.
The song "Odeio" by Manu Gavassi is a complex expression of conflicting emotions. The opening lines set the tone with a statement of hatred for the subject's smile, speech, and even their presence. However, as the lyrics continue, it becomes clear that the true root of this hatred is actually deep affection. The singer struggles with their feelings for the subject, torn between the desire to express their emotions and the fear of rejection. Even though they claim to hate the subject, they cannot help but write songs about them and feel jealous when they are with someone else. The song ends with an admission of true feelings and a resolution to no longer hide them.
The song's structure is reflective of the emotional journey of the singer, with a mix of anger and vulnerability expressed through the verses juxtaposed against a more hopeful and open chorus. The lyrics also convey a sense of confusion and frustration, as the singer seems to be struggling with not only their feelings for the subject but also their own identity and sense of self-worth.
