Revolver
Walter Franco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Esquecer de lembrar
Cansar de dormir
Dormir descansar
Sorrir de doer
Doer de sangrar
Sangrar de morrer
Morrer de lembrar
Esquecer de lembrar
Cansar de dormir
Dormir descansar
The lyrics to Walter Franco's song Revolver are complex and open to interpretation. On one hand, they seem to speak to the cyclical nature of life; the idea that we often find ourselves caught in an endless loop of forgetting and remembering, sleeping and waking, smiling and hurting. This constant up-and-down can be exhausting, and we may find ourselves longing for respite - for a moment of peace and stillness.
However, the lyrics also suggest that these highs and lows are fundamentally connected. One cannot exist without the other; to forget is to remember, to sleep is to wake, to smile is to hurt. In this way, the song seems to be saying that we must embrace the difficult moments along with the good ones; that pain and joy are two sides of the same coin. And ultimately, that it is through this acceptance - this willingness to experience the full spectrum of human emotion - that we can find rest and renewal.
Overall, the lyrics to Revolver are a poignant reminder of the complexities of life, and the importance of staying present in each moment - even the difficult ones.
