Tanto Faz, Tanto Fez

Guilherme e Gustavo's song 'Tanto Faz, Tanto Fez' is a poignant exploration of heartache and the emotional aftermath of a lost love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person who has endured immense emotional pain, symbolized by drinking 'água de pranto' (water of tears) and feeling the bitterness of ingratitude. The singer's nights are filled with loneliness, as they sleep with saudade (a deep sense of longing) and wake up to solitude. This imagery sets the tone for a narrative steeped in sorrow and regret.

The song delves deeper into the emotional turmoil by describing encounters with fleeting happiness, only to find oneself going in the wrong direction ('entrei na contra-mão'). The singer has paid the price of passion, experiencing the highs and lows of love. The metaphor of 'naufraguei meu coração' (I shipwrecked my heart) in the 'mar da vida' (sea of life) captures the sense of being lost and overwhelmed by sadness. The use of nautical imagery emphasizes the vastness and depth of the singer's despair, as they navigate through a 'nave de tristeza' (ship of sadness) and lose themselves in the immensity of their emotions.

The chorus encapsulates the essence of the song, expressing a sense of aimlessness and resignation. The singer admits to not knowing where they come from or where they are going, highlighting the disorientation that comes with living without love. The phrase 'Tanto faz, tanto fez' (It doesn't matter) reflects a deep sense of apathy and indifference towards life. Whether it's day or night, rain or shine, the singer feels like 'o resto do nada' (the rest of nothing) from a love story that has ended. This powerful conclusion underscores the profound impact of lost love and the lingering emptiness it leaves behind.
