Então Me Usa

Carlin Azevedo's song 'Então Me Usa' delves into the complex emotions of a tumultuous relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love that is both intoxicating and painful. The opening lines, 'Você me deu um banho de ilusão / Jogou água fria no meu coração,' suggest a sense of betrayal and disillusionment. The imagery of being taken 'beyond the clouds' only to fall back to the ground highlights the highs and lows of this emotional rollercoaster. This metaphor captures the essence of a relationship that promises much but delivers heartbreak.

The chorus, 'Então me usa, rasga minha blusa / Beija minha nuca pode morder,' is a raw and unfiltered plea for physical connection. Despite the emotional pain, the protagonist is willing to be 'used' for the fleeting moments of pleasure. This paradoxical desire underscores the complexity of human emotions, where the need for intimacy can sometimes override the pain it causes. The repetition of 'Me dá prazer, ei, ei, eh / Já que é só isso que cê sabe fazer' further emphasizes this point, suggesting that physical pleasure is the only thing the partner can offer.

The song also touches on the struggle between wanting to break free and being unable to resist. Lines like 'Da vontade de te bloquear / Te mandar pra aquele lugar pra você / Não me machucar' reveal a desire to end the relationship to avoid further hurt. However, the admission 'Mais eu não posso e nem quero evitar' shows an internal conflict, where the protagonist is both unwilling and unable to let go. This duality captures the essence of many real-life relationships, where love and pain are often intertwined.
