Ninguém Me Ouviu

Nobody listened to me.

Ninguém Me Ouviu

From a young age, I learned to say: Everything's alrightDesde pequeno, aprendi a dizer tá tudo bem
Even when my chest screamed that it wasn't there eitherMesmo quando o peito gritava que não tava também
He spoke softly, without knowing who he was speaking toFalava baixo, sem saber pra quem
Nobody was listening, and I pretended I was fineNinguém escutava, e eu fingia que tava bem

Every time I said I was fine, it was to disguise the painToda vez que falei tô bem, foi pra disfarçar a dor
To hide from myself what's left of lovePra esconder de mim mesmo o que sobrou de amor
And every word I tried to sayE cada palavra que tentei soltar
It was coming back to me, with no one to hear itVoltava pra mim, sem ninguém pra escutar

What if I spoke about what I've been hiding from myself?E se eu falasse o que escondi de mim?
Would anyone stay until the end?Será que alguém ficava até o fim?
Or was he just pretending to understand me?Ou só fingia me entender
So you'll have something to say after I'm gone?Pra ter o que dizer depois que eu partir?

Nobody heard me, nobody felt meNinguém me ouviu, ninguém sentiu
I got lost in the pain that time builtMe perdi nas dores que o tempo construiu
I screamed so loud that even I disappearedGritei tão alto que até eu sumi
And the rest pretended I never livedE o resto fingiu que nunca vivi

I grew up thinking that being strong meant keeping quietCresci achando que ser forte era calar
That crying in front of others was a sign of weaknessQue chorar na frente dos outros era fraquejar
And today I only speak when the pain allows me toE hoje eu só falo quando a dor permite
Because I've learned that nobody insistsPorque já aprendi que ninguém insiste

I turned pain into a song, fear into a homeFiz da dor um canto, do medo um lar
I got used to not expecting anythingMe acostumei a não esperar
And now that I've learned not to speakE agora que aprendi a não falar
That's when the world comes looking for meÉ quando o mundo vem me procurar

And if I disappear, will they even notice?E se eu sumir, será que vão notar?
Or do you only remember when it's time to post?Ou só lembrar quando for pra postar?
Because true love doesn't come from storiesPorque amor de verdade não vem de stories
It comes from those who remain when the world is oddVem de quem fica quando o mundo é impare

Nobody heard me, nobody felt meNinguém me ouviu, ninguém sentiu
I got lost in the pain that time builtMe perdi nas dores que o tempo construiu
I pretended to be strong until I fellFingi ser forte até cair
Just to prove that I could pretendSó pra provar que eu podia fingir

They told me that everything passes, but they didn't say where it passesMe disseram que tudo passa, mas não disseram pra onde
Maybe go inside, maybe hideTalvez vá pra dentro, talvez se esconda
And when the voice fades, the heart speaksE quando a voz some, o coração fala
But nobody understands what he keeps silent aboutMas ninguém entende o que ele cala

It's too late now, I've learned to accept itAgora é tarde, aprendi a aceitar
Not all pain needs to be screamedNem toda dor precisa gritar
Perhaps I've said too muchTalvez eu tenha falado demais
For those who never wanted to listen to me, everPra quem nunca quis me escutar jamais

Today the wind speaks for meHoje o vento fala por mim
Carry what's left from hereCarrega o que sobrou daqui
What if nobody remembers what I've been through?E se ninguém lembrar do que eu vivi
Everything's fine, I listened to myself, finallyTá tudo bem, eu me ouvi, enfim

Nobody heard me, nobody felt meNinguém me ouviu, ninguém sentiu
I got lost in the pain that time builtMe perdi nas dores que o tempo construiu
But if this is my last voiceMas se essa for minha última voz
Let it stay on the air, just to show that I existedQue ela fique no ar, só pra mostrar que eu existi
