Pra Onde Vai?
Gabriel O Pensador
Where Are You Going?
Another life thrown away
A heart that no longer beats, rest in peace
Dreams that go away, before their time
Dreams that are left behind
Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Where does the Sun go when the night falls?
And now?
The pain is as big as a building
The house without him will be boring
There's no remedy, no explanation, no turning back
Friends don't accept it, the brother rebels
The family doesn't believe what happened
No one can understand why the boy died
They took from us such an innocent young man
And his grandmother, who was a believer, now is angry at God
His father grew older, more serious, and sadder
And his mother simply can't resist
Besides losing her son, she lost her love for life
And the daughter-in-law now has suicidal tendencies
And the girlfriend he dreamed of marrying
Everyone all the time feels like crying
When they remember the plans the boy made
He used to say: I want to be someone someday
He dreamed of the future since he was a child
No one could imagine his destiny
Another victim of a violent world
If God is just, then who made the judgment?
Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Where does the Sun go?
When the night falls?
Why does a young man who lived smiling lose his life so suddenly?
Especially a guy who loved to live
It's really impossible to understand
No answer will bring peace back to the boy's family
Their lives will never be the same
And they look at his picture on the shelf
That sparkle in his eyes and his childlike manner
Now are just a memory
And the hope that he is well, wherever he is
Doesn't diminish the void he left
It's unbearable when his birthday comes
And his clothes in the closet seem to wait for him to come back as a surprise
To take his empty seat at the table
Sadness is sometimes so strong
Sadness is sometimes so strong that it's easier to pretend there was no death
Because every time he comes to kill the longing
He comes with that happy face
Brightening dreams and wanting to say that his soul will never grow old
And that suffering is not the solution
It's better to keep a flame burning in the heart
And the certainty in the mind that one day they will meet again
Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Where does the Sun go when the night falls?
Where are you going?
Where does the Sun go
Where are you going?
When the night falls?
When everything turns to ashes
Where does the Sun go
When the night falls?
When the Sun goes away?
When everything passes?
When we cry?
Where does it go?
