Just like the Hearse you die to get in again
We are so far from you
Burning on
Just like the match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you know
And what's the worst you take
From every heart you break?
And like the blade you'll stain
Well, I've been holding on tonight
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
Came a time
When every star fall
Brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold
And what's the worst you take
From every heart you break?
And like a blade you'll stain
Well, I've been holding on tonight
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend to leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
A Despedida Emocional de Helena: Uma Análise da Canção de My Chemical Romance
A música Helena da banda My Chemical Romance é uma poderosa mistura de emoção e energia, característica marcante do estilo emo-punk pelo qual o grupo é conhecido. A letra da canção parece abordar temas de perda, luto e a dificuldade de seguir em frente. A referência a um caixão ('hearse') e a um fósforo que incinera ('match you strike to incinerate') sugere uma metáfora para o fim de algo importante, possivelmente uma vida, e as consequências que isso traz para aqueles que ficam para trás.
A repetição do refrão 'What's the worst that I can say? Things are better if I stay. So long and goodnight' evoca a ideia de uma despedida que é ao mesmo tempo necessária e dolorosa. A ambiguidade das palavras 'Things are better if I stay' pode indicar uma luta interna entre a vontade de permanecer por mais tempo e a necessidade de deixar ir. A música também toca na ideia de que as ações de uma pessoa podem quebrar corações e deixar marcas, como uma lâmina que mancha ('like the blade you stain').
A parte final da música 'Can you hear me? Are you near me? Can we pretend to leave and then we'll meet again when both our cars collide?' traz uma sensação de esperança e reencontro, mesmo que seja sob circunstâncias trágicas ou metafóricas. A colisão de carros pode ser interpretada como um evento catastrófico que une as pessoas novamente, mesmo que seja o fim. Helena é uma música que fala sobre o impacto emocional da perda e a complexidade dos sentimentos envolvidos em dizer adeus, seja literal ou metaforicamente.

Há muito tempo
Just like the Hearse you die to get in again
Como o carro de funerária, você morre para voltar nele de novo
We are so far from you
Estamos tão distantes de você
Burning on
Queimando
Just like the match you strike to incinerate
Como um fósforo, você ataca para incinerar
The lives of everyone you know
A vida de todos que conhece
And what's the worst you take
E o que é o pior que leva
From every heart you break?
De cada coração que quebra?
And like the blade you'll stain
Como a lamina que suja
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Bem, tenho te esperado essa noite
What's the worst that I can say?
O que é o pior que posso dizer?
Things are better if I stay
As coisas estão melhores se eu ficar
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite
Came a time
Chegou um tempo
When every star fall
Em que toda estrela cai
Brought you to tears again
Te trazem lágrimas de novo
We are the very hurt you sold
Somos os feridos que você vendeu
And what's the worst you take
E o que é o pior que leva
From every heart you break?
De cada coração que quebra?
And like a blade you'll stain
Como a lamina que suja
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Bem, tenho te esperado essa noite
What's the worst that I can say?
O que é o pior que posso dizer?
Things are better if I stay
As coisas estão melhores se eu ficar
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite
Well, if you carry on this way
Bem, se você continuar desse jeito
Things are better if I stay
As coisas estão melhores se eu ficar
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite
Can you hear me?
Você está me ouvindo?
Are you near me?
Você está perto de mim?
Can we pretend to leave and then
Podemos fingir ir embora e então
We'll meet again
Nos encontramos de novo
When both our cars collide
Quando nossos dois carros colidirem
What's the worst that I can say?
O que é o pior que posso dizer?
Things are better if I stay
As coisas estão melhores se eu ficar
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite
And if you carry on this way
Bem, se você continuar desse jeito
Things are better if I stay
As coisas estão melhores se eu ficar
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite
So long and goodnight
Até mais e boa noite

Hace mucho tiempo
Just like the Hearse you die to get in again
Al igual que el coche fúnebre, mueres para volver a entrar
We are so far from you
Estamos tan lejos de ti
Burning on
Ardiendo
Just like the match you strike to incinerate
Al igual que la cerilla que enciendes para incinerar
The lives of everyone you know
Las vidas de todos los que conoces
And what's the worst you take
¿Y qué es lo peor que tomas
From every heart you break?
De cada corazón que rompes?
And like the blade you'll stain
Y como la cuchilla que mancharás
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Bueno, he estado aguantando esta noche
What's the worst that I can say?
¿Qué es lo peor que puedo decir?
Things are better if I stay
Las cosas son mejores si me quedo
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches
Came a time
Llegó un momento
When every star fall
Cuando todas las estrellas cayeron
Brought you to tears again
Te hicieron llorar de nuevo
We are the very hurt you sold
Somos el mismo dolor que vendiste
And what's the worst you take
¿Y qué es lo peor que tomas
From every heart you break?
De cada corazón que rompes?
And like a blade you'll stain
Y como la cuchilla que mancharás
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Bueno, he estado aguantando esta noche
What's the worst that I can say?
¿Qué es lo peor que puedo decir?
Things are better if I stay
Las cosas son mejores si me quedo
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches
Well, if you carry on this way
Bueno, si sigues así
Things are better if I stay
Las cosas son mejores si me quedo
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches
Can you hear me?
¿Puedes oírme?
Are you near me?
Estas cerca de mí
Can we pretend to leave and then
¿Podemos fingir que nos vamos y luego
We'll meet again
Vernos otra vez
When both our cars collide
Cuando nuestros autos choquen?
What's the worst that I can say?
¿Qué es lo peor que puedo decir?
Things are better if I stay
Las cosas son mejores si me quedo
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches
And if you carry on this way
Y si sigues así
Things are better if I stay
Las cosas son mejores si me quedo
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches
So long and goodnight
Hasta luego y buenas noches

Il y a longtemps
Just like the Hearse you die to get in again
Exactement comme le corbillard dans lequel t'as le privilège de mourir encore
We are so far from you
Nous sommes si loin de toi
Burning on
On n'arrête pas de brûler
Just like the match you strike to incinerate
Exactement comme l'allumette que tu allumes pour incinérer
The lives of everyone you know
Les vies de tous ceux que tu connais
And what's the worst you take
Et c'est quoi le pire élément de ce que tu prends
From every heart you break?
De chaque cœur que tu brises?
And like the blade you'll stain
Et comme la larme que tu tacheras
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Eh ben, j'essaye de tenir fort ce soir
What's the worst that I can say?
C'est quoi la pire chose que je pourrais dire?
Things are better if I stay
Les choses iront mieux si je reste
So long and goodnight
À la prochaine et bonsoir
So long and goodnight
À la prochaine et bonsoir
Came a time
Un jour est arrivé
When every star fall
Quand chaque étoile est tombée
Brought you to tears again
Ça t'a fait pleurer de nouveau
We are the very hurt you sold
Nous sommes la douleur même que tu as vendu
And what's the worst you take
Et c'est quoi le pire élément de ce que tu prends
From every heart you break?
De chaque cœur que tu brises?
And like a blade you'll stain
Et comme la larme que tu tacheras
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Eh ben, j'essaye de tenir fort ce soir
What's the worst that I can say?
C'est quoi la pire chose que je pourrais dire?
Things are better if I stay
Les choses iront mieux si je reste
So long and goodnight

So long and goodnight
À la prochaine et bonsoir
Can you hear me?
Peux-tu m'entendre?
Are you near me?
Peux-tu m'entendre?
Can we pretend to leave and then
Peut-on faire semblant de partir et puis
We'll meet again
On se rencontrera de nouveau
When both our cars collide
Quand nos deux bagnoles se rentrent dedans
What's the worst that I can say?
C'est quoi la pire chose que je pourrais dire?
Things are better if I stay
Les choses iront mieux si je reste
So long and goodnight
À la prochaine et bonsoir
So long and goodnight
À la prochaine et bonsoir
And if you carry on this way
Et si tu continues comme ça
Things are better if I stay
Les choses iront mieux si je reste
So long and goodnight

Vor langer Zeit
Just like the Hearse you die to get in again
Genau wie der Leichenwagen, in den man stirbt, um wieder hineinzukommen
We are so far from you
Wir sind so weit von dir entfernt
Burning on
Brennen weiter
Just like the match you strike to incinerate
Genau wie das Streichholz, das du anzündest, um zu verbrennen
The lives of everyone you know
Das Leben von jedem den du kennst
And what's the worst you take
Und was ist das Schlimmste, das du nimmst
From every heart you break?
Von jedem Herzen, das du brichst?
And like the blade you'll stain
Und wie die Klinge, die du beflecken wirst
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Nun, ich habe heute Nacht durchgehalten
What's the worst that I can say?
Was ist das Schlimmste, was ich sagen kann?
Things are better if I stay
Es ist besser, wenn ich bleibe
So long and goodnight
So lange und gute Nacht
So long and goodnight
So lange und gute Nacht
Came a time
Es kam eine Zeit
When every star fall
Als jeder Stern fiel
Brought you to tears again
Dich wieder zu Tränen rührte
We are the very hurt you sold
Wir sind der Schmerz, den du verkauft hast
And what's the worst you take
Und was ist das Schlimmste, das du nimmst
From every heart you break?
Von jedem Herzen, das du brichst?
And like a blade you'll stain
Und wie die Klinge, die du beflecken wirst
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Nun, ich habe heute Nacht durchgehalten

Can you hear me?
Kannst du mich hören?
Are you near me?
Bist du in meiner Nähe?
Can we pretend to leave and then
Können wir so tun, als würden wir gehen und dann
We'll meet again
Werden wir uns wiedersehen
When both our cars collide
Wenn beide Autos zusammenstoßen
What's the worst that I can say?
Was ist das Schlimmste, was ich sagen kann?
Things are better if I stay
Es ist besser, wenn ich bleibe
So long and goodnight
So lange und gute Nacht
So long and goodnight

Molto tempo fa
Just like the Hearse you die to get in again
Proprio come il carro funebre in cui muori per entrarci di nuovo
We are so far from you
Siamo così lontani da te
Burning on
Bruciando
Just like the match you strike to incinerate
Proprio come il fiammifero che accendi per incenerire
The lives of everyone you know
Le vite di tutti quelli che conosci
And what's the worst you take
E qual è il peggio che prendi
From every heart you break?
Da ogni cuore che spezzi?
And like the blade you'll stain
E come la lama ti macchierai
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Beh, ho resistito stasera
What's the worst that I can say?
Qual è il peggio che posso dire?
Things are better if I stay
Le cose vanno meglio se rimango
So long and goodnight
Addio e buonanotte
So long and goodnight
Addio e buonanotte
Came a time
È arrivato un momento
When every star fall
Quando ogni stella cade
Brought you to tears again
Ti ho fatto piangere di nuovo
We are the very hurt you sold
Siamo proprio il male che hai venduto
And what's the worst you take
E qual è il peggio che prendi
From every heart you break?
Da ogni cuore che spezzi?
And like a blade you'll stain
E come una lama ti macchierai
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Beh, ho resistito stasera
What's the worst that I can say?
Qual è il peggio che posso dire?
Things are better if I stay
Le cose vanno meglio se rimango

Quando entrambe le nostre auto si scontrano
What's the worst that I can say?

Dahulu kala
Just like the Hearse you die to get in again
Seperti kereta jenazah yang kau mati untuk masuk lagi
We are so far from you
Kita begitu jauh darimu
Burning on

Just like the match you strike to incinerate
Seperti korek api yang kau nyalakan untuk membakar
The lives of everyone you know
Kehidupan semua orang yang kau kenal
And what's the worst you take
Dan apa yang paling buruk yang kau ambil
From every heart you break?
Dari setiap hati yang kau hancurkan?
And like the blade you'll stain
Dan seperti pisau yang akan kau noda
Well, I've been holding on tonight
Nah, aku telah bertahan malam ini
What's the worst that I can say?
Apa yang paling buruk yang bisa aku katakan?
Things are better if I stay
Hal-hal akan lebih baik jika aku tinggal
So long and goodnight
Selamat tinggal dan selamat malam
So long and goodnight
Selamat tinggal dan selamat malam
Came a time
Datanglah waktu
When every star fall
Ketika setiap bintang jatuh
Brought you to tears again

From every heart you break?
Dari setiap hati yang kau hancurkan?
