I sit at my desk and think of things to write I sit at my desk and think of things to write Eu sento na minha mesa e penso em coisas para escrever But they're not words they're little rats But they're not words they're little rats Mas elas não são palavras, são pequenos ratos I crawl with them through the cracks in the pavement I crawl with them through the cracks in the pavement Eu rastejo com eles através das rachaduras no pavimento We've found ways of getting through We've found ways of getting through Encontramos maneiras de atravessar Alone Alone Sozinho With ticking clocks in my head With ticking clocks in my head Com relógios tiquetaqueando em minha cabeça We're on the phone We're on the phone Estamos no telefone And smiling with my every lie And smiling with my every lie E sorrindo com cada mentira minha Lodged in the asbestos Lodged in the asbestos Alojado no amianto With my dirty little rats With my dirty little rats Com os meus ratinhos sujos I found the word that I've been looking for I found the word that I've been looking for Eu encontrei a palavra que eu estava procurando (But I forgot so all this it's) (But I forgot so all this it's) (Mas eu esqueci isso, então isso é tudo) And when I get back, I will let you know how things went And when I get back, I will let you know how things went E quando eu voltar, eu vou deixar você saber como as coisas foram Alone Alone Sozinho With ticking clocks in my head With ticking clocks in my head Com relógios tiquetaqueando em minha cabeça We're on the phone We're on the phone Estamos no telefone And smiling with my every lie And smiling with my every lie E sorrindo com cada mentira minha I'm telling lies (alone) I'm telling lies (alone) Eu estou contando mentiras (sozinho) I'm telling lies (alone) I'm telling lies (alone) Eu estou contando mentiras (sozinho) I'm telling lies I'm telling lies Eu estou dizendo mentiras I'm telling I'm telling Eu estou dizendo Alone Alone Sozinho With ticking clocks in my head With ticking clocks in my head Com relógios tiquetaqueando em minha cabeça We're on the phone We're on the phone Estamos no telefone And smiling with my every lie And smiling with my every lie E sorrindo com cada mentira minha I left my bike outside so long, it rusted; now it won't ride I left my bike outside so long, it rusted; now it won't ride Deixei minha bicicleta fora tanto tempo, ela enferrujou, e agora não vai andar All those things I said I'd do I promised (I promised), I guess I lied All those things I said I'd do I promised (I promised), I guess I lied Todas essas coisas que eu disse que faria e prometi (Eu prometi), eu acho que eu menti And the rats I'm sure they're dead (everything is dead); I've packed them six feet under And the rats I'm sure they're dead (everything is dead); I've packed them six feet under E os ratos eu tenho certeza que eles estão mortos (tudo está morto); Eu enterrei-os a sete palmos Surfacing like water, like spit Surfacing like water, like spit Vindo à superficie como a água, como cuspe
