Na Sua Estante Lyrics in English Pitty

Home / Lyrics Translation / Pitty / Na Sua Estante

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Na Sua Estante by Pitty from Portuguese to English.

I see you messing up and that's no sin

Except when you make somebody bleed

I see you dreaming and that's scary

Lost in a world nobody can enter

You're walking out of my life

And it looks like it'll take a while

If you don't know how to come back, at least send word

You think I'm crazy

But everything will fall into place

I'm making the most of every second

Before this turns into a tragedy

And it's no use even looking for me

In other tones, other laughs

I was here the whole time

Only you didn't see

And it's no use even looking for me

In other tones, other laughs

I was here the whole time

Only you didn't see

You're always coming and going, it's okay

This time I've already put on my armor

And even if nothing works

I'll be standing, chin up

Then you'll see me blushing and find it funny

But I wouldn't look good on your shelf

I'm making the most of every second

Before this turns into a tragedy

And it's no use even looking for me

In other tones, other laughs

I was here the whole time

Only you didn't see

And it's no use even looking for me

In other tones, other laughs

I was here the whole time

Only you didn't see

Just for today I don't wanna see you anymore

Just for today I won't take my dose of you

I'm tired of crying over wounds that won't close

Won't heal

And this withdrawal will pass eventually

SONG MEANING

“Na Sua Estante” feels like opening a secret diary where heartbreak meets punk-rock courage. Pitty sings from the perspective of someone who has finally spotted the toxic cycle in a stop-start relationship: she watches the other person drift away, warns them about the damage they cause, then steels herself with emotional “armor.” The shelf in the title is a clever metaphor: she refuses to be an ornamental trophy, waiting passively while her partner comes and goes. Each line mixes vulnerability (“I see you dreaming and it scares me”) with defiance (“Even if nothing works, I will be standing, chin up”), capturing that raw moment when pain turns into self-respect.

By the chorus, her message is crystal clear: I was right here all along, you just never noticed. The song balances gritty guitars with poetic Portuguese, showing that breaking free can be both tragic and empowering. In the final verse she swears off her “dose” of the other person, promising that withdrawal will heal her wounds. It is an anthem for anyone ready to step off someone else’s shelf and reclaim their own spotlight.
