When I Die
Midnight Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A abstinência cegou os meus olhos
Em contraste à sua mente
A minha sofre e apodrece
Eu queimo enquanto me sufoco
Estou em uma gaiola
Clamando por libertação
E aqui me machuco
Deixo a consciência ser meu castigo, o que eu mereço por vir

If I should die for you I will do, willingly
May the Lord bring you peace
and love eternally
If I should die for you I would do, willingly




May the Lord bring you peace
and love eternally

The first verse begins with the line "Abstinência cegou os meus olhos" which translates to "Abstinence blinded my eyes."

However, they also acknowledge that they are the cause of their own suffering and use their conscience as a punishment. The second verse brings up the idea of sacrifice, as the singer expresses willingness to die for the person they are addressing. They hope that this sacrifice will bring them peace and eternal love.


Overall, the lyrics to "When I Die" explore the themes of self-inflicted suffering, sacrifice, and the consequences of one's actions. The verses paint a vivid picture of the singer's pain while also attempting to make amends and offer a gesture of love and submission.
