As Tortas e as Cucas
Jupiter Apple Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Flutuou minha mente compreendendo
Falei com minha sombra, tem vida própria sim
Abrindo as tortas e as cucas
Gentilmente sentei na pedra, tornei-me parte desta pedra
Ninguém me compreendia, nem nada que eu fazia
Os passarinhos me acalmaram!!!!
Uhh aaaaahhh
Uhhhhhh
Uhhhhhh
Abrindo as tortas e as cucas
Foi quando então eu percebi
Eu tava no meu guarda-roupa
Em posição fetal, achando tão normal, rolando um
Flash Back maternal
Uhh aaaaahhh
Uhh aaaaahhh
Uhhhhhh
Uhhhhhh
Abrindo as tortas e as cucas
The lyrics of "As Tortas e as Cucas" by Jupiter Apple depict a psychedelic and introspective journey. The singer describes a transformative experience where their body melts and their mind expands. They communicate with their shadow, recognizing its independent existence. As they open "as tortas e as cucas," which can be metaphorical for unveiling hidden truths or revealing secrets, they find a sense of peace.
The lyrics continue with the singer sitting on a stone, feeling one with it. They express a feeling of being misunderstood by others, as nobody comprehends their actions. However, the presence of birds brings them comfort. The repetition of "Uhh aaaaahhh" emphasizes a transcendental state of being, where words falter, and only primal sounds remain.
In the second part of the song, the singer realizes that they were inside their own wardrobe, in a fetal position, perceiving it as normal. This moment triggers a maternal flashback, perhaps suggesting a return to a primal state or the discovery of deep-rooted emotions.
Overall, "As Tortas e as Cucas" conveys a surreal and introspective experience that touches on themes of self-discovery, transformation, and the mysterious nature of the mind.
