The Dare
Sofi Tukker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Entre a coisa e o nome, a coisa
Entre o vinho e a taça, o vinho
Entre a boca e o batom, a boca
Entre a mão e a luva, a mão

Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might find them
Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might find them
Entre a coisa e o nome, a coisa
Entre o vinho e a taça, o vinho
Entre a boca e o batom, a boca
Entre a mão e a luva, a mão

Entre o pé e o salto, o pé
Entre a pele e o pano, a pele
Entre nós, nada

Between the thing and the name, the name
Between the wine and the cup, the wine
Between the skin and the clock, the skin
Between us, nothing

Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might find them
Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might find them





(Find them, find them, find them)
(Find them, find them, find them)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sofi Tukker's song "The Dare" explore the concept of duality and the spaces that exist between different elements. The repetition of phrases like "Entre a coisa e o nome, a coisa" (Between the thing and the name, the thing) and "Entre nós, nada" (Between us, nothing) emphasizes the idea of the in-between, the liminal spaces that separate two entities.


The lyrics suggest that there is something to be discovered in these intermediary spaces. The lines "Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might find them" convey the idea that if we truly focus and delve deep enough into something or someone, we might uncover hidden truths or aspects that we didn't notice before.


The use of repetition throughout the song creates a hypnotic and contemplative atmosphere. The verses are simple yet profound, encouraging the listener to reflect on the spaces in between, both metaphorically and literally. The song invites us to explore the unseen and discover new dimensions in our relationships and experiences.

Entre a coisa e o nome, a coisa
Entre o vinho e a taça, o vinho
Entre a boca e o batom, a boca
Entre a mão e a luva, a mão

Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might fall in love
Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might fall in love

Entre o vinho e a taça, o vinho
Entre a boca e o batom, a boca

Entre o pé e o salto, o pé
Entre a pele e o pano, a pele
Entre nós, nada

Between the thing and the name, the thing
Between the wine and the cup, the wine
Between the skin and the cloth, the skin
Between us, nothing

Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might fall in love
Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might fall in love

Between the skin and the cloth, the skin
Between us, nothing

Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might find them
Stare into anyone's eyes for long enough, you might find them

(Find them, find them, find them
Find them, find them, find them)
