Novo Endereço

In Alcione's song "Novo Endereço," the lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who has decided to move on from a past relationship. The opening lines, "Nem lágrima nem dor, só uma ponta de mágoa sem rancor," suggest a sense of closure without bitterness. The protagonist has found a new place to live, metaphorically and literally, as indicated by the lines "Tenho novo endereço pra morar, Rua: não vou mais voltar." This new address symbolizes a fresh start and a conscious decision to leave behind the illusions and disappointments of the past.

The song continues with the protagonist detailing their new life, emphasizing the lack of a phone number and the vague postal code, "Telefone: não, O meu Cep é: duzentos e tal." This signifies a desire to cut off communication and avoid any potential reconnections with the past. The mention of living on the "5 andar" (fifth floor) could symbolize a higher perspective or a new level of understanding and self-awareness.

Alcione's soulful delivery adds depth to the lyrics, making the listener feel the weight of the protagonist's decision. The final lines, "O coração não sente o que o olhar não vê," encapsulate the essence of the song. It suggests that by removing themselves from the situation, the protagonist can heal and move forward. This song is a powerful anthem of self-respect and the courage to embrace change, even when it means leaving behind what was once familiar.
