Nada
Toranja Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Implora porquês que não vou responder
Geme a chorar, que te faz bem,
Sangra o teu mundo só para eu ver
Afoga-te em tudo o que não queres ter,
Que é só o que te vou mostrar
Vou fazer-te só o que não queres ser,
Quero-te assim...
Sacrifica o teu ar, que te faz bem,
Sufoca entre panos vestidos de azul
Tortura os teus olhos para veres bem,
Que arranhas a voz em tosses sem som
Afoga-te em águas e cores de lua
Sente o céu a quebrar!
Desfaço-te em tudo o que é teu
E vais-me amar...
Quero-te... assim
Só para mim
Só quando o sol te comer a pele
E o luar te roer a alma
Na lama que te arranca as asas
Quando fores ave amarrada
Vais voar no meu céu negro!
vais ser nada...nada...nada...nada...
Vem rastejar, que te faz bem,
Sangra o teu mundo, que te faz bem.
The song "Nada" by Toranja is a dark, haunting tune filled with intense and conflicting emotions. The lyrics describe a disturbing and sadistic relationship, where one person takes pleasure in inflicting pain on the other. The singer of the song, who is most likely the dominant figure in the relationship, implores the other to do things that cause them physical and emotional harm because it gives them pleasure. The lyrics are full of imagery that creates a sense of suffocation, drowning, and being trapped, emphasizing the idea that the person being dominated is completely trapped in the relationship and unable to escape.
The repeated refrain of "Quero-te assim" ("I want you like this") is particularly chilling, as it suggests that the person inflicting the pain is getting exactly what they want, and enjoying the power they hold over the other. The final verse of the song is particularly gruesome, describing how the person being dominated will eventually be reduced to "nothing" and will be completely enslaved to the other, even in death.

Vem rastejar, que te faz bem,
Come crawl, it feels good to you,
Implora porquês que não vou responder
Beg all you want, I won't answer why
Geme a chorar, que te faz bem,
Moan and cry, it feels good to you,
Sangra o teu mundo só para eu ver
Bleed your world just so I can watch
Afoga-te em tudo o que não queres ter,
Drown yourself in everything you don't want,
Que é só o que te vou mostrar
Because it's all I will show you
Vou fazer-te só o que não queres ser,
I'll make you only what you don't want to be,
E vais gostar...
And you'll like it...
Quero-te assim...
I want you like this...
Sacrifica o teu ar, que te faz bem,
Sacrifice your air, it feels good to you,
Sufoca entre panos vestidos de azul
Suffocate between blue cloth,
Tortura os teus olhos para veres bem,
Torture your eyes to see clearly,
Que arranhas a voz em tosses sem som
Scratch your voice in silent coughs
Afoga-te em águas e cores de lua
Drown yourself in waters and moon colors
Sente o céu a quebrar!
Feel the sky breaking apart!
Desfaço-te em tudo o que é teu
I'll undo everything that's yours
E vais-me amar...
And you'll love me...
Quero-te... assim
I want you... like this,
Só para mim
Only for me
Só quando o sol te comer a pele
Only when the sun eats your skin
E o luar te roer a alma
And the moon gnaws on your soul
Na lama que te arranca as asas
In the mud that tears away your wings
Quando fores ave amarrada
When you're a tied-up bird
Vais voar no meu céu negro!
You'll fly in my dark sky!
Vais ser nada...nada...nada...nada...
You'll be nothing...nothing...nothing...nothing...
Vem rastejar, que te faz bem,
Come crawl, it feels good to you,
Sangra o teu mundo, que te faz bem.
Bleed your world, it feels good to you.
