Grey Dream - Sonho Cinzento
I want to remember the colours of my grey dream
and the geography of valleys and mountains
rivers and deserts
seas and oceans
but my subconscious only draws decadent cities
yes those are very tangible
crumbled in the blood that flows through the building facades
till being the heaped and shapeless planet
of my dream.
Quero lembrar-me das cores do meu sonho cinzento
e da geografia dos vales e montanhas
rios e desertos
mares e oceanos
porém meu subconsciente só desenha cidades decadentes
essas sim bem nítidas
a desfazerem-se no sangue que escorre pelas fachadas dos prédios
até serem o planeta amontoado e disforme
do meu sonho.
