Depois

Lauana Prado's song 'Depois' delves into the tumultuous aftermath of a passionate and intense relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love that has left an indelible mark on the protagonist's psyche. The opening lines describe a scene where the protagonist's actions are directly influenced by memories of their lover, highlighting how deeply intertwined their thoughts and behaviors have become. The mention of trying to move on with other people but failing due to psychological turmoil underscores the profound impact this relationship has had.

The chorus reveals the crux of the protagonist's struggle: the haunting memory of an intimate moment. The phrase 'Depois que cê gemeu no meu ouvido' (After you moaned in my ear) signifies a deeply personal and unforgettable experience that has left the protagonist mentally unsettled. This line is repeated, emphasizing the lasting effect of that moment. The juxtaposition of closing their eyes and seeing their lover naked, and then opening them to see a beer on the table, symbolizes the constant battle between memory and reality.

The song captures the essence of a 'crazy love' that leaves one 'crazy from the start.' This phrase encapsulates the whirlwind nature of the relationship and its lingering effects. Lauana Prado's emotive delivery and the raw, honest lyrics resonate with anyone who has experienced the lingering echoes of a love that was as exhilarating as it was destabilizing. The song is a poignant exploration of how certain relationships can leave a lasting imprint, making it difficult to return to a sense of normalcy.
