There's a world outside but i can't really make it There's a world outside but i can't really make it Há um mundo lá fora, mas eu realmente não posso fazê-lo There's a life to lead but i can't exactly fake it There's a life to lead but i can't exactly fake it Há uma vida para levar, mas eu não posso exatamente fingir Yet the mood feels right Yet the mood feels right No entanto, o humor se sente bem But my island is sinking out of sight But my island is sinking out of sight Mas a minha ilha está afundando fora da vista I made jetties so they'd catch all the sediment I made jetties so they'd catch all the sediment Fiz molhes para que pegaria todo o sedimento Removed the rocks and every impediment Removed the rocks and every impediment Removidas as rochas e todo impedimento But the tide's rising high to wash away my island in the night But the tide's rising high to wash away my island in the night Mas subir a maré alta para lavar a minha ilha no meio da noite The sheltering sky was to be my everlasting lullaby The sheltering sky was to be my everlasting lullaby O céu abrigando era para ser minha canção de ninar eterno They said that islands were solid as bedrock They said that islands were solid as bedrock Eles disseram que as ilhas eram sólidos como rocha Standing firm forevermore Standing firm forevermore Firmes para sempre But over time even basement wastes away to the unrelenting shore But over time even basement wastes away to the unrelenting shore Mas com o tempo, mesmo porão definha à costa implacável There's a lonely seed waiting to be planted There's a lonely seed waiting to be planted Há uma semente só esperando para ser plantada I've instructions but desire is wholly absent I've instructions but desire is wholly absent Eu tenho instruções, mas o desejo é totalmente ausente I'm just a petrel in the storm I'm just a petrel in the storm Eu sou apenas um petrel na tempestade My island can't protect me anymore My island can't protect me anymore Minha ilha não pode me proteger mais
