The present paper constitutes an enunciative study of the discursive genre of song lyrics and aims at analyzing the sense of death, which arises from the lyrics of the song Canto para minha morte, by Raul Seixas, in face of the intersubjective relation between the speaker and listener. The proposition of instersubjectivity in language, a theory in which Benveniste approaches the marks of person, space and time as categories that validate such a thesis is mentioned. The research is descriptive-qualitative. The methodological procedures employed were the identification and analysis of the marks that guide subjectivity and how these marks are organized in an intersubjective relation. Based on such findings, it is suggested that the play of linguistic marks (person, space, time) in Canto para minha morte makes evident the progressive construction of meanings of death.
