Closure

ZeRO's song 'Closure' delves into the tumultuous emotions that accompany the end of a relationship marked by betrayal and confusion. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love that has gone awry, with the protagonist grappling with the duality of love and deceit. The opening lines, 'Hey, look at me / Why are you acting like that?' set the tone for a confrontation, questioning the authenticity of the partner's actions and intentions. The recurring theme of choosing sides in a 'war' suggests a relationship fraught with conflict and indecision.

The chorus, 'It’s over, I just barely know ya / We're just going down, down, down, down, down,' encapsulates the sense of disillusionment and the realization that the relationship is beyond repair. The imagery of 'two knives on my shoulder' symbolizes the burden of betrayal and the emotional scars left behind. The mention of 'closure' and 'midnight' implies a longing for resolution and peace, which remains elusive as the partner's presence continues to bring pain and confusion.

The song also incorporates metaphors related to gambling and card games, highlighting the risks and unpredictability of love. Lines like 'Vou apostar a minha sorte' and 'Eu sou o rei do blefe' suggest that the relationship was a gamble, with both parties playing their own deceptive games. The reference to 'angels with some broken wings, a bullet and a clover' further emphasizes the shattered hopes and the sense of betrayal. Ultimately, 'Closure' is a poignant exploration of the complexities of love, trust, and the painful journey towards healing and self-discovery.
