When I died

Quando Eu Morri

When I died

A Terra estava quente demais,The Earth was too hot,
o ar estava rarefeitothe air was too thin
Eu tirei minhas roupasI took off my clothes
Eu tirei minha peleI took off my skin
Eu rastejei até o marI crawled to the sea
que estava rastejando de mimthat was crawling from me
pra eu poder nadar...so I could swim...
é, pra eu poder nadar!yeah, so I could swim!

Eu estava cansado da terraI was sick of the land
Eu estava doente do calorI was sick from the heat
Eu estava cansado do sol, do céu e das árvoresI was sick of the sun and the sky and the trees
Sobre o ar que eu precisava respirarOver the air that I needed to breathe
Quando eu segurava com as mãosWhen I held with my hands
Quando eu andava com os pésWhen I walked on my feet
Eu tirei minhas roupasI took off my clothes
Eu tirei minha peleI took off my skin
Comecei a despir meus braçosStarted shedding my arms
Pra começar a ganhar minhas nadadeirasTo start getting my fins
Rastejei até o mar que estava me chamandoCrawled to the sea that was calling for me
pra eu poder nadar, nadar no oceano vastoso I could swim, swim the ocean wide
Eu estava apenas passando pela correntezaI was only just past the riptide
Quando eu morriWhen I died
Quando eu morriWhen I died

É, quando eu morriYeah when I died
Minha cabeça inchouMy head did swell
Eu disse pra mim mesmoI said to myself
A natureza deve levar seu tempoNature should take its sweet time
Eu já estava perdendo minha colunaI was already losing my spine
Eu estava doente com (?) e minha cortina caiuI was sick with (?) and my curtain fell
É o fim da história que eu tinha certeza de contarIt's the end of the story I was certain to tell
Observando os rostos enquanto me puxavam do marWatching their faces as they pulled me from the sea
Sentindo pelo lugar onde eu achava que minhas brânquias estariamFeeling for the place I thought my gills would be
Quebrado e destruídoBusted and wrecked
Justamente infectadoJustly infected
Meu corpo além de consertoMy body beyond repair
Não tinha objeção, senhorHad no objection sir
Minhas únicas perguntas eramMy only questions were
Pra onde eu vou e vou saber quando chegar láWhere do I go and will I know when I'm there
Mas eu realmente não poderia dizer que me importavaBut I really couldn't say that I cared
Quando eu morriWhen I died
Quando eu morriWhen I died

É, quando eu morriYeah when I died
Minha cabeça inchouMy head did swell
Eu disse pra mim mesmoI said to myself
A natureza deve levar seu tempoNature should take its sweet time
Eu já estava perdendo, é!, minha colunaI was already losing, yeah!, my spine
