Fixação

Kid Abelha's song 'Fixação' delves into the intense and often overwhelming nature of obsession. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who is utterly captivated by another person, to the point where their presence is felt everywhere. The song opens with the protagonist seeing the object of their fixation on TV, describing them as a 'miracle' and 'perfection in the smallest details.' This sets the stage for the recurring theme of an inescapable presence that haunts the protagonist's every move.

The chorus, with its repeated use of the word 'Fixação' (which translates to 'fixation' or 'obsession'), emphasizes the depth of this infatuation. The protagonist feels haunted by the eyes in a photograph, describing them as 'ghosts in my room.' This metaphorical language suggests that the obsession is not just a fleeting thought but a persistent and intrusive force in their life. The line 'I want to be alone' adds a layer of complexity, indicating a desire to escape this overwhelming fixation, yet feeling powerless to do so.

Throughout the song, there is a sense of longing and desperation. The protagonist dreams of a chance to touch the person they are obsessed with, to 'capture the vibration' they feel from their image. This longing is so intense that they close their eyes to see the person, even though the person is unaware of their feelings. The song captures the paradox of obsession: the intense desire to be close to someone, coupled with the torment of knowing that this desire may never be fulfilled. Kid Abelha's 'Fixação' is a poignant exploration of the darker side of love and infatuation, where admiration turns into an all-consuming fixation.
