Supermarket
Aisle two invites me to buy, unneeded items
And the commercial placation, the forced laugh
And it's just that now nothing's the same, he's avoiding my gaze
Could it be we're wrong or defenseless?
Aisle two, an animal is resting, a passenger
The guest stays over for dinner, but I dislike it
And it's just that now it doesn't taste the same, he's avoiding my gaze
Could it be that we're wrong, and we are defenseless?
Such insecurity
Could it be that fear has trained us?
And there's such instability
Could it be that we're standing in the dark,
and the weapons, should we put them away?
How easily words come, in the supermarket.
The novelty is approaching its end, the mourning 1 begins
The credit isn't enough for anything more, being a prisoner
And it's just that now nothing's the same, he's avoiding my gaze
Could it be that we're wrong, and we are defenseless?
Such insecurity
Could it be that fear has trained us?
And there's such instability
Could it be that we're standing in the dark,
and the weapons, should we put them away?
How easily words come, in the supermarket.
And everything will pass
Today was strange
A national chain
We leave in cardiac arrest
Such insecurity
Could it be that fear has trained us?
And there's such instability
Could it be that we're in the dark,
and the weapons, should we put them away?
How easily words come, in the supermarket.
- 1. The song being about the aftermath of a couple's fight at the supermarket makes the meaning of the word "duelo" ambiguous. "Duelo" can mean either "duel", a face-off between two parties, or "mourning", the period of grief after a loss, which could be interpreted here as the result or aftermath of a conflict. Depending on which definition is understood, the meaning of the lyric changes slightly.
