Falta
Tim Bernardes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nunca
Nunca, meu amor, não diga nunca
Sempre
Tente, cada vez é diferente
Sente
Calma, dê um espaço pra alma
Falta, falta, falta
Tesão, tesão eu sinto no corpo
Todo
Toda, tudo e total, tô à toa
Zoa
Voa, vai ver a vida te salva
Salta
Solta, que a alma volta mais alta
Falta
Falta, falta, falta
Uh-uh, falta
Uh, falta
Uh-uh-uh
Falta, falta
The lyrics to Tim Bernardes's song "Falta" convey a range of emotions and experiences. The character in the song is deeply connected to music, feeling it not only with their ears but also with their entire being. The mention of feeling it "com a nuca" (with the nape of the neck) suggests a powerful physical and emotional response to music. This connection is further emphasized through repetition, as the character asserts that they feel it "sempre" (always).
The song then shifts focus to the concept of "falta," which can be translated as "lack" or "missing." The character explores the idea that each time something is attempted, it is different. They encourage embracing this uncertainty and allowing oneself to feel and experience different emotions. The mention of "calma" (calm) suggests a need for patience and giving space for the soul to breathe and grow.
The repetition of "falta" in the chorus emphasizes a feeling of longing or absence. This feeling may be related to passion or desire, as the character also mentions feeling "tesão" (desire) in their body. This connects to a sense of being lost or aimless, as they feel "à toa" (without direction). The playful mention of "zoa" adds a sense of lightness or humor to the mix, perhaps encouraging the character to not take themselves too seriously.
The lyrics then take a turn towards finding salvation or release through experiencing life and taking risks. The mention of "voa" (fly) suggests freedom and exploration, while "salta" (leap) implies taking opportunities and embracing new possibilities. The mention of the soul returning "mais alta" (higher) indicates a sense of elevation or growth that comes from these experiences.
Once again, the chorus repeats the word "falta," emphasizing the feeling of longing or absence. The final repetition of "falta" is punctuated by interjections that add a sense of urgency or intensity to the longing expressed in the lyrics. The song leaves the listener with a lingering sense of something missing or lacking, inviting contemplation and introspection.

Tim, aos 3 anos, eu perdi meu pai.
Aos 6, deixei minha vó.
Aos 12, perdi partes de minha pele.
Aos 13, perdi meu primeiro amor.
Aos 14, perdi parte de minha mãe.
Aos 16, perdi minha alma.
Aos 17, perdi meu pudor.
Aos 18, perdi minha fé.
Eu sei que não deveria olhar apenas pro que perdi, mas poxa Tim, se tudo que foi é mais valioso que tudo que tenho, o que posso fazer com o pouco que me restou?
Como eu saio desse calabouço que eu não escolhi estar?
Por que a decisão das pessoas afetam TANTO a nossa vida e nós temos que nos adaptar a escolha DELAS?
