I saw cities swallowed by the ocean I saw cities swallowed by the ocean Vi cidades engolidas pelo oceano I saw children crying in the streets I saw children crying in the streets Vi crianças chorando nas ruas Hundreds stranded on the overpass Hundreds stranded on the overpass Centenas presas nos viadutos Bodies rotting in the brutal heat Bodies rotting in the brutal heat Corpos em decomposição com o calor brutal Cries for help fell on deaf ears Cries for help fell on deaf ears Gritos de socorro caíram em ouvidos surdos 5 days passed and no one came 5 days passed and no one came 5 dias se passaram e ninguém veio Pointing fingers while the people died Pointing fingers while the people died Dedos apontando enquanto as pessoas morriam I saw a nation hang it's head in shame I saw a nation hang it's head in shame Eu vi uma nação pendurar sua cabeça de vergonha Have I awakened Have I awakened Acordei Deep inside some madman's dream? Deep inside some madman's dream? dentro de algum sonho louco? This is not my country This is not my country Este não é o meu país This is not what I believe This is not what I believe Este não é o que eu acredito Have I awakened Have I awakened Acordei Deep inside some madman's dream? Deep inside some madman's dream? dentro de algum sonho louco? I can barely recognize I can barely recognize Eu mal posso reconhecer The place this used to be The place this used to be O que esse lugar costumava ser Anarchy in the empty streets Anarchy in the empty streets Anarquia nas ruas vazias The law dissolved like so much smoke The law dissolved like so much smoke A lei dissolvida como fumaça A dying prayer for the humanity A dying prayer for the humanity A prece morrendo para a humanidade That washed away when the levees broke That washed away when the levees broke Que foram lavados quando os diques romperam A year went by and nothing changed A year went by and nothing changed Um ano se passou e nada mudou No justice left for the destitute No justice left for the destitute Não há mais justiça para os necessitados Abandoned cities, abandoned souls Abandoned cities, abandoned souls Cidades abandonadas, almas abandonadas Tomorrow's dream is yesterday's news Tomorrow's dream is yesterday's news O sonho de amanhã é uma notícia de ontem
