At The End Of The Day
I made a rod
It was for my own back
At the time I could not see it
But now it is clear
I rattle my brain for words
That I thought I knew as certainly
As my own name
But they are disappeared
What does it mean
Does it mean anything
What does it mean
At the end of the day
What words were they
And how careless and arrogant was I
To think I owned them
Without giving them the respect
of being born onto a page
Gently by my own pen
Where they would stay
And live again and again and again
What was it for
Was it for anything
What does it mean
At the end of the day
What does it mean
Does it mean anything
What does it mean
At the end of the day
You live where you lived
You sit where you sat
Nothing seems to have changed
At the end of the day
No Final do Dia
Eu fiz uma vara
Era pra me dar uma lição
Na hora eu não percebi
Mas agora tá claro
Eu remexo minha cabeça em busca de palavras
Que eu achava que sabia com certeza
Como meu próprio nome
Mas elas sumiram
O que isso significa
Significa alguma coisa
O que isso significa
No final do dia
Quais palavras eram essas
E quão descuidado e arrogante eu fui
Pra achar que as possuía
Sem dar a elas o respeito
De nascerem numa página
Gentilmente pela minha própria caneta
Onde elas ficariam
E viveriam de novo e de novo e de novo
Pra que foi isso
Foi pra alguma coisa
O que isso significa
No final do dia
O que isso significa
Significa alguma coisa
O que isso significa
No final do dia
Você vive onde viveu
Você senta onde sentou
Nada parece ter mudado
No final do dia
