Given (Fuyu No Hanashi) (Verão Em Português)

The song 'Given (Fuyu No Hanashi) (Verão Em Português)' by Given (anime) is a poignant exploration of loss, longing, and the struggle to move forward. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a heart frozen by the pain of a past that cannot be changed. The metaphor of snow that never melts symbolizes the enduring nature of this emotional coldness, suggesting that as long as the winter persists, the heart remains frozen. This imagery is powerful, evoking a sense of being trapped in a moment of sorrow that seems endless.

The song delves into the internal conflict of holding onto memories and the difficulty of letting go. The lines 'Sei que nunca me libertarei / Se tudo que eu senti / No peito eu guardei' reflect the burden of carrying past emotions and the realization that clinging to them prevents healing. The mention of an 'eternity' that is 'pior de se enfrentar pra quem está só' underscores the loneliness that accompanies this emotional stasis. The struggle to find strength to move on, yet being unable to say goodbye, is a central theme, highlighting the complexity of dealing with grief and the fear of facing the future alone.

The song also touches on the idea of a cursed dream, a future that will never be realized. This sense of hopelessness is captured in the lines 'Fui amaldiçoado por sonhar / Com o futuro que jamais será.' The internal scream that contrasts with an outward appearance of being fine ('Por fora pareço bem / Por dentro vou gritar') speaks to the silent suffering many experience. The recurring presence of a lost loved one, felt everywhere and in everything, adds to the haunting nature of the song. Ultimately, the song suggests that while the past cannot return, and goodbyes are inevitable, the memories of loved ones remain, offering a bittersweet comfort.
