Eu me lembro muito bem
I remember it very well
Como se fosse amanhã
As if it were tomorrow
O sol nascendo sem saber
The sun rising unaware
O que iria iluminar
Of what it would illuminate
Eu abri meu coração
I opened my heart
Como se fosse um motor
As if it were an engine
E na hora de voltar
And when it was time to return
Sobravam peças pelo chão
Pieces were left on the ground
Mesmo assim eu fui à luta
Still, I fought the fight
Eu quis pagar pra ver
I wanted to pay to see
Aonde leva essa loucura
Where does this madness lead
Qualé a lógica do sistema
What's the logic of the system
Onde estavam as armas químicas
Where were the chemical weapons
O que diziam os poemas
What the poems used to say
Afinal de contas
After all
O que nos trouxe até aqui
What brought us here
Medo ou coragem
Fear or courage
Talvez nenhum dos dois
Maybe neither of the two
Sopra o vento, um carro passa pela praça e já foi
The wind blows, a car passes through the square and it's gone
Já foi
It's gone
Por acaso eu fui à luta
By chance, I went into the fight
Eu quis pagar pra ver
I wanted to pay to see
Aonde leva essa loucura
Where does this madness lead?
Qualé a lógica do sistema
What's the logic of the system?
Onde estavam as armas químicas
Where were the chemical weapons?
O que diziam os poemas
What the poems used to say
O tempo nos faz esquecer
Time makes us forget
O que nos trouxe até aqui
What brought us here
Mas eu lembro muito bem
But I remember very well
Como se fosse amanhã
As if it were tomorrow
Quem prometeu descanso em paz
Who promised peace and rest
Pra depois dos comerciais
For after the commercials
E quem ficou pedindo mais
And those who kept asking for more
Armas químicas e poemas
Chemical weapons and poems
Armas químicas e poemas
Chemical weapons and poems
