Modus Operandi

Yago OPróprio's 'Modus Operandi' delves into the complexities of love, loss, and the passage of time. The song's lyrics reflect a deep emotional struggle, as the narrator grapples with the recurring temptation to rekindle a past relationship. The phrase 'sempre a mesma instiga de tentar você de volta' (always the same urge to try to get you back) sets the tone for the song, highlighting the cyclical nature of their emotions and the difficulty of moving on.

The lyrics also explore the pain and confusion that come with these feelings. The narrator admits to spending sleepless nights searching for answers, only to find themselves more confused as time goes on. The line 'eu não mereço todas dores desse mundo' (I don't deserve all the pains of this world) underscores the emotional toll this relationship has taken. Despite the pain, there's a nostalgic longing for simpler times when 'nós era tudo' (we were everything), suggesting that the relationship once brought immense joy and fulfillment.

As the song progresses, there's a sense of hope and realization. The narrator acknowledges the necessity of certain actions and experiences for personal growth, even if they were painful. The repeated idea of freezing time to avoid mistakes ('se eu pudesse congelar o tempo, eu evitava tudo') reflects a desire to learn from the past and prevent future heartache. Ultimately, the song ends on a hopeful note, with the belief that a new day will dawn and bring better times, encapsulated in the lines 'um novo dia há de amanhecer, você vai ver como nóis chega lá' (a new day will dawn, you'll see how we get there).
