Dezembros (feat. Zeca Baleiro)

Fagner's song 'Dezembros,' featuring Zeca Baleiro, is a haunting exploration of desolation, longing, and the passage of time. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a world where the natural beauty of the morning is lost to the artificiality of urban life. The imagery of a 'building without windows' where the protagonist draws the eyes of a loved one amidst bullet traces and the glow of a television suggests a sense of confinement and yearning for something more genuine and profound.

The recurring theme of 'dezembros' (Decembers) symbolizes the passage of time and the cold, barren months that often represent the end of a cycle. The protagonist's journey through 'oceans and deserts' while feeling the proximity of death underscores a profound existential struggle. The line 'my life in your hands' indicates a deep emotional dependency and vulnerability, as if the protagonist's very existence hinges on the presence of the loved one.

The metaphor of the train leaving in a 'night without stars' and the subsequent arrival of a day where neither the protagonist, the train, nor the loved one exists, encapsulates a sense of loss and the inevitability of change. The song's melancholic tone and reflective lyrics invite listeners to contemplate the transient nature of life, the impact of urbanization on human connections, and the enduring hope for a return to something pure and untainted by modern life's harsh realities.
