A Culpa É Sua

In the song "A Culpa É Sua" by Bruno e Marrone, the lyrics delve into the emotional turmoil and consequences of neglecting a loving partner. The narrative is told from the perspective of a friend who observes the protagonist's behavior and warns him about the inevitable heartbreak that will follow if he continues down his current path. The phrase "Pau que nasce torto, torto vai ficar" (a crooked stick will remain crooked) sets the tone, suggesting that some behaviors are hard to change.

The song paints a vivid picture of a devoted partner waiting anxiously at home, filled with longing and hope for the protagonist's return. This partner is described as an angelic, sweet, and loyal companion, who spends her nights waiting by the door. In contrast, the protagonist is depicted as someone who spends his time wandering the streets, seeking love in all the wrong places. The friend warns that this behavior will lead to regret and sorrow, especially if the devoted partner decides to leave.

The chorus emphasizes the consequences of the protagonist's actions, highlighting the futility of seeking love from those who do not genuinely care. The repeated line, "Você vai chorar se ela for embora" (You will cry if she leaves), serves as a stark reminder of the pain that awaits. The imagery of a man crying from bar to bar underscores the depth of the impending heartbreak. Ultimately, the song conveys a powerful message about the importance of valuing and cherishing true love before it's too late, placing the responsibility squarely on the protagonist's shoulders with the line, "a culpa é toda sua" (the blame is all yours).
