Something happens suddenly
And changes everything, never stays as it is
What's the recipe for the best ingredient
When the emptiness already overflows non-stop?
Every night I'm becoming transparent
And my shadow can't find me
How does everything end so suddenly?
I no longer see the horizon bend
But why die today
If tomorrow I'll be better?
Nobody can live forever
The thing is not to be alone
But why die today
If tomorrow I'll be better?
Nobody can live forever
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to be alone
The world is changing differently
Than we used to imagine
Evil now attacks us from the front
And from behind it keeps provoking
No drug is enough for me anymore
No medicine can cure me
No speech seems coherent to me
No love is willing to love me
Lairará
But why die today
If tomorrow I'll be better?
Nobody can live forever
The thing is not to be alone
But why die today
If tomorrow I'll be better?
Nobody can live forever
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to stay
But why die today
If tomorrow I'll be better?
Nobody can live forever
The thing is not to be alone
But why die today
If tomorrow I'll be better?
Nobody can live forever
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to stay
(Oh oh)
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to stay
The thing is not to be alone
The thing is not to stay

transbordaoverflows

Transborda means "overflows" or "spills over". It's a vivid and evocative verb that paints a strong picture of something exceeding its capacity.

In the song, Paulinho Moska uses it to describe an emotional state: "Quando o vazio já transborda sem parar?" (When the emptiness already overflows without stopping?). This metaphorical use of "overflows" for emptiness is particularly striking, suggesting a profound and overwhelming sense of void.

Have you ever felt like everything is changing too fast and not for the better? Paulinho Moska's "Jeito É Não Ficar Só" captures this feeling perfectly. The lyrics paint a picture of someone feeling lost and empty, as if they're becoming "transparente" (transparent) and even their own shadow can't find them. The world seems confusing and hostile, and nothing—not medicine, not speeches, not even love—seems to offer a cure for this deep sense of unease.

But just when things seem darkest, the chorus shines a light of hope. The song asks a powerful question: "Mas pra quê morrer hoje / Se amanhã eu estarei melhor?" (But why die today / If tomorrow I will be better?). It acknowledges that life is temporary—"Viver pra sempre ninguém pode" (No one can live forever)—but offers a simple, profound solution to the pain of existence: "O jeito é não ficar só" (The way is not to be alone). It's a beautiful reminder that even when the world feels overwhelming, human connection is the key to getting through it.
