Antes de Partir (feat. Shé e Dante)

Love, so prone to leaving a wound
Like the edge of a knife in the hands of a suicide
If you don't write to me, don't expect me to write to you
Because the time you ask for only stones us

It hurts much more what you don't say
Your gaze already warned that it would leave scars
If walls could talk, they would presume to be happy
Without knowing what is lost behind their gray walls

How do I explain to the heart that doesn't reason?
Ignoring those who seek us and seeking those who ignore us
Not always those you value, value you
And sometimes the more we give, the less it works

I learned that we learn through movement
And that another attempt is not asking for time to waste it
Love is not decided, nor is it enough to deserve it
And some lose much more by not trying than by doing

That nothing matters is what matters
Let's not say forever if nothing is as it was before
I want a love that shines, but not like a diamond
That is only hard on the outside, but shatters when hit

If you expect me to wait for you, it will be late
But I have what you want in case you come looking for me
I don't even know how I intend to fall in love
If even though you know I'm crazy about you, it gets complicated until I'm tired

When it hurts more to stay than to give up
Break me into pieces before leaving
The wounds that heal leave a scar
Giving everything to those who made you suffer
Is a waste of time, and it's losing yourself
Love also teaches how to let go

Love, so expert in matters of war
Capable of making even a heart of stone beat
If you don't look at me, don't ask me to look at you
Because when love hurts, even the looks break you, and

How do you love without it hurting so much?
They say everything ends, the question is: when?
There is nothing more valuable than a smile after crying
Nor a hug, after that goodbye that still hurts to remember

Tell me who we are, in case I ever forget
And where we are going, in case I lose sight of the path
If it's true that we were, or perhaps another lie
One that we only tell when everything is lost

Tell me if you have felt with someone what you feel with me
If you think we are chance, or rather destiny
Loving is quite a challenge, but when you love seriously
Excuses evaporate, and only reasons exist

I'm addicted to everything that hurts
To all the things I pursue, the ones that can't be
I'm like that first drop, that touches you every time it rains
Like a broken soul that doesn't live, but never dies

You are my silence, my four walls
The story I will remember when my pain flies
The hand I will caress when my end comes
The way one loves is what defines who you are

We ask for time that we lose
Out of fear of admitting what we will have to tell each other
I chose not to choose to avoid missing
And I understood that there is a forgiveness we owe to ourselves

We lose out of fear of fear itself
We waste the little time left due to selfishness
Always in search of the missing piece of the puzzle
Wanting to know what you think instead of wanting to feel it

When it hurts more to stay than to give up
Break me into pieces before leaving
The wounds that heal leave a scar
Giving everything to those who made you suffer
Is a waste of time, and it's losing yourself
