Palavras Repetidas [English translation]

The world is sunk into violence, war, pain and despairation

And we are watching it all, we are watching it all

On the mirror of us all, right under our noses...

We see it right before us... it's such an absurd

We see it... someone's watching you too, whether you want it or not

We see the darkness on the end of the tunnel

We see the darkness on the end of the tunnel

We see our death, already predicted for so long*

We see that our lives are worth nothing

I see blood showering over my garder

The sun looks beautiful, falling down like a grenade

There comes a car-bomb the wrong way

There comes a car-bomb the wrong way

The suicide-driver's just laughing behind the wheel

One gotta love the others as though there weren't a tomorrow

Because if you stop and think about it, you'll see there's no tomorrow actually

The bomb was left to explode on our hands**

Fear can be read on our faces

A mistake was done, everything's going wrong

Here's the mistake game, that never ceases...

7,8,9,10,... a hundres mistakes

They're my mistakes, your mistakes and God's mistakes too.

Insanity, simple mistakes

Cue ball/next target, burials and wakes

There's total loss, death's everywhere

whether it's sitting on bus seat or into a deluxe imported car

Did your son die? Mine too...

Mine got killed when mugging someone, mine got killed being assaulted in a street

There's sadness & longing, everywhere

It's such a cowardly torture, that snubs and destroys us

I see one Bin Laden, hidden in every favela

Hero of the miserables, worthy villain

There's sadness & longing, everywhere

It's such a cowardly torture, that snubs and destroys us

Bullets rushed through my window

As I slept, trying to have a dream

One gotta love the others as though there weren't a tomorrow

Because if you stop and think about it, you'll see there's no tomorrow actually

I'm a grain of sand in the eye of the hurricane

I'm just one amidst a thousand sand grains

Every one's seeking for his way, every one's got a compass to guiding his heart

Every one reads his way the very same uncertainty

Not always it's possible to keep the faith

as you feel losing the ground under feet,

Always believing in the chance of being happy

It's an eternal scar

I'm forever a learner of the choices I did

But without love, I would be nothing,

Even if I could speak the languages of all the tribes

Of all the groups and factions

Even if I could cry out the scream of all the legions.

These are the same usual words, I know...

But tell me, what are the words I want most to repeat in my life ?:

Happiness, peace, yes...

Happiness, peace, luck

Not always it's possible to keep the faith

But not always the weakness we may feel means we are not strong enough
