These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Meu pé anda com medo do meu próprio passo
My foot is afraid of my own stride
Pisando no vazio por falta de espaço
Stepping into the void for lack of space
A quem me prometeu amor, eu devolvi cansaço
To those who promised me love, I returned tiredness
Fiquei sentindo falta de um outro pedaço
I missed another piece
O começo de um fim sempre tá no meio
The beginning of an end is always in the middle
Nem adianta mais tentar usar o freio
No use it's no use trying to use the brake
Se você não queria, então por que veio?
If you didn't want to, then why did you come?
Só pra se arriscar ou perder o passeio?
Just to take a chance or miss the ride?
Eu já fui careca, já fui cabeludo
I've been bald, I've been hairy
Já fui recipiente, já fui conteúdo
I've been a container, I've been content
Um dia te traí, no outro eu fui escudo
One day I betrayed you, the next I was a shield
Às vezes quase nada, e outras mais que tudo
Sometimes almost nothing, and sometimes more than anything
Eu já fui poeira, eu já fui planeta
I've been dust, I've been a planet
E até contei os grão que caem da ampulheta
And I even counted the grain that fall from the hourglass
Já fui o movimento de uma estatueta
I was once the movement of a statuette
Eu quis ser tão maluco que fiquei careta
I wanted to be so crazy, I stared
