When I Die
Midnight Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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 lyrics to Midnight's song "When I Die" address the concept of sacrifice and the consequences of one's actions. The first verse begins with the line "Abstinência cegou os meus olhos" which translates to "Abstinence blinded my eyes." This line sets the tone for the rest of the verse, which highlights the singer's suffering and decay caused by their own choices. They contrast this with the mindset of the person they are addressing, who seems to be free from such pain.
The singer then uses the metaphor of a cage to describe their situation. They feel trapped and are "Clamando por libertação", or crying out for release. 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.
