Ausencia
hillier Lyrics

The lyrics of "Ausência" by Hillier speaks about the pain of missing someone who is no longer with us. The song begins with a question, "não se vá, como tá?" which means "don't leave, how are you?". This shows that the singer is trying to reach out to the person who has left and is desperate to know how they are doing. The next line goes, "não te vejo faz um tempo, toda noite só lamento" which means "I haven't seen you for a while, every night I just mourn". This shows that the singer has been trying to find the person but has been unsuccessful in doing so.

The next lines convey the singer's desire to be close to the person, "queria te ter perto, não atiro certo nessa vida merda", which means "I wanted to have you close, I can't aim right in this shitty life". There's a sense of hopelessness in these lines, as the singer realizes that life can be unpredictable, and he can't control everything that happens.

The chorus, "pego o violão canto uma canção mas não é a mesma coisa sem você aqui perto de mim", which means "I pick up the guitar, sing a song but it's not the same without you here with me" emphasizes the pain of missing someone special. The guitar playing and singing are two things that seem to bring comfort to the singer, but even those things are not enough without the person they miss.
