Tell me the truth
There is no vanity anymore
I'll stay on the street
And drink just one more glass
I open a wine, I still drown
Waiting for an image of you
Tell me the truth
You don't have to miss me
Because I'm not just yours
I'll drink just one more glass
I open a wine, I still drown
Waiting for an image of you
Verse 1
I'm waiting for the call you rarely make
And I want to hear what your fate says
There you are with your poems
I want that space
Write your songs on my scars
And pay attention to the paragraph
Enter my metric
I want you to understand
To me, you're not just aesthetics
But I was never yours
Match with me
Come find me on my street
Giving Cupid a dance
Or grab the glass, come closer
Sit next to me
And don't say you're not just mine if you look at me like that
So if you want the truth
I feel longing
And today I'm the one who insists you come by here
Come see my house
I want to feel you close when the light goes out
I love your scent on my pillow
And even if you don't come tomorrow
Listen to the rain hitting the tiles
While the night doesn't end
Today I'll go home thinking of you
Tomorrow I insist on not even passing by here
In every street a blackout
Turn off the crimson light
I throw the glass on the ground just to put an end
To this night
To this night
Tell me the truth
You don't have to miss me
Because I'm not just yours
I'll drink just one more glass
I open a wine, I still drown
Waiting for an image of you
Outro
Tell the truth, my fado singer

SONG MEANING

“Fala-me A Verdade” (Tell Me the Truth) drops us into a late-night Lisbon scene where Piruka, glass in hand, wrestles with love, freedom and the famous Portuguese saudade. Over a hypnotic beat colored by Bia Caboz’s fado-tinged vocals, he begs for honesty while admitting he might drown his feelings in “só mais um copo” – just one more drink. The song plays like a dialogue: he insists he is not exclusively hers, yet he keeps waiting for her call, her scent on his pillow and the spark that turns the streetlights crimson. The push-and-pull creates a relatable portrait of modern romance – half bravado, half vulnerability.

Under the party lights we find deeper questions about identity and connection. Piruka uses rap verses to carve his own “métrica,” inviting her poetry to heal his scars, while Bia’s voice echoes the bittersweet fatalism of traditional fado. Between their lines we hear the clash of independence versus attachment: Can we claim our own space and still crave another’s presence? The answer is never simple, so the singer pours another glass, listens to the rain on the roof tiles and hopes the night lasts long enough for truth to finally arrive.
