Dois Covardes

Henrique e Juliano's song 'Dois Covardes' delves into the complex emotions of a relationship where both parties are too afraid to admit their true feelings. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of two individuals who are caught in a cycle of pride and fear, unable to confront their emotions head-on. The opening lines, 'Quando eu te encontro, eu me perco / Entro na contramão e nem dou seta,' suggest a sense of disorientation and recklessness whenever they meet, indicating that their feelings are overwhelming and confusing.

The song continues to explore the theme of ego and pride, as seen in the lines, 'Quando você me liga pra se resolver / Meu ego cresce e o meu orgulho desperta.' Here, the act of trying to resolve issues only inflates their egos, making it even harder to bridge the emotional gap between them. This is a common scenario in relationships where both parties are too proud to admit their vulnerabilities, leading to a stalemate where neither side is willing to make the first move.

The chorus, 'Nós somos dois covardes / Fingindo que tá bem, forçando uma amizade,' encapsulates the essence of the song. It highlights the irony of their situation—they are 'two cowards' pretending to be fine and forcing a friendship, all the while hiding their true feelings. The rhetorical question, 'Quem foi que falou? Quem falou, errou / Então, quem de nós dois errou?' adds another layer of complexity, questioning who is to blame for their predicament. This song is a poignant reflection on the human tendency to hide behind facades, even when it comes at the cost of genuine connection.
