Grito de Alerta
Gonzaguinha
Warning Cry
First you bother me
Twist my head
Put in my mouth
A bitter taste of gall...
Then
Comes crying apologies
Kind of asking
Wanting to gain
A lot of honey...
Can't you see that then I tear myself apart
Choke, swallow
Reflect and extend my hand
And so our life
Is a river drying up
The stones cutting
And I keep asking:
How long?...
There are so many little things
Gnawing, eating
Slowly destroying
Our ideal
Lost phrases in a world
Of shouts and gestures
In a blame game
That does so much harm...
I don't want the reason
Because I know
How wrong I am
And how much I've already destroyed
I only feel in the air the moment
When the cup is full
And it's no longer
Possible to swallow...
Look!
Our situation
Is a slightly open door
And I sought
The most correct word
See if you understand
My warning cry
Look!
It's love stirring my heart
There's a needy side
Saying yes
And this life has people
Shouting no...(2x)
