The Painter

O Pintor

The Painter

O pintor fez um retrato nossoThe painter painted a portrait of us
Éramos livres, sem amarras e talvez apaixonadosWe were free and unanchored and maybe in love
Mas ele pintou tudo de branco pra recomeçarBut he painted it white to start over again
Agora a tela tá cheia do que poderia ter sidoNow the canvas is thick with what could have been
E eu tô tentando não esquecer o que foiAnd I'm trying not to forget what was

Rabiscos e narizes, ereções e peitosSquiggles and noses, erections and tits
Ele pinta o obsceno, o absurdo e é elogiado por issoHe paints the obscene, the absurd and is praised for it
Ele vê a beleza nas cenas que deixamos passarHe sees the beauty in the sights we pass by
Ele se intriga com a calma que nunca vai encontrarHe’s intrigued by the stillness that he’ll never find
E eu vou sentir falta de chamá-lo de meu amigoAnd I’ll miss calling him a friend of mine
