By day we're dormant By day we're dormant De dia somos dormentes Because it's too hot outside now Because it's too hot outside now Pois é muito quente lá fora Nocturnal notions (as we leave or cocoons) Nocturnal notions (as we leave or cocoons) Noções noturnas (enquanto deixamos nossos casulos) Antennae tuned to inuman vibrations Antennae tuned to inuman vibrations Antenas sintonizadas para vibrações não-humanas Shading the cities of the world to come Shading the cities of the world to come Sombreando as cidades do mundo que chegam I listen to the sound, the endless construction I listen to the sound, the endless construction Eu escuto o som, a infinita construção Inside the termite mound Inside the termite mound Dentro do cupinzeiro I walked past the nursery I walked past the nursery Eu passei pelo berçário All the children have gone now All the children have gone now Todas as crianças se foram (The rules we taught them are what they've become) (The rules we taught them are what they've become) (As regras que nós as ensinamos são o que eles se tornaram) Move past the people (they make me feel so indifferent) Move past the people (they make me feel so indifferent) Eu passo pelas pessoas (elas me fazem sentir tão indiferente) Serving their purpose Serving their purpose Servindo seus propósitos It's their purpose to serve It's their purpose to serve É o seu propósito servir A thousand lights from this hneycombed labyrinth A thousand lights from this hneycombed labyrinth Mil luzes desse labirinto de abelhas do favo de mel These winding tunnels lead to my place of desire These winding tunnels lead to my place of desire Estes túneis sinuosos guiam-me para o lugar que eu desejo Bars and bazaars of self-gratification Bars and bazaars of self-gratification Bares e bazares de auto-gratificação Live to consume Live to consume Viver para consumir Live for momentary pleasures Live for momentary pleasures Viver para prazeres momentâneos I listen to the sound, the endless construction I listen to the sound, the endless construction Eu escuto o som, a infinita construção Inside the termite mound. Inside the termite mound. Dentro do cupinzeiro.
