O sorriso na minha cara 00:03
Não diz bem como estou 00:07
Às vezes ponho a capa 00:11
E quando o dia acaba 00:13
Eu esqueço-me quem sou 00:14
Mente-me na cara 00:18
E diz que já passou 00:22
Visto de coragem 00:26
Só que é tanta bagagem 00:28
Que eu nem sei pra onde vou 00:30
Na, na, ra, na 00:32
Eu sem ti, não vou chegar 00:35
Sei que é tarde pra voltar 00:38
Mas no fim, tu vais lá estar 00:43
Acorda-me, quando acabar 00:46
O sorriso na minha cara 00:50
Não diz bem como estou 00:54
Às vezes ponho a capa 00:58

Acorda-me, quando acabar 01:33
Tentar outra vez 01:37
Ou esquecer-me de vez 01:41
Já tentei fintar, mas 01:45
Está tudo apontar ao meu peito furado 01:47
São pregos e cravos 01:51
Eu sem ti, não vou chegar 01:53
Sei que é tarde pra voltar 01:57

[English]
The smile on my face
It doesn't say how I'm really feeling
Sometimes I put on my disguise
And when the day is over
I forget who I am
Lie straight to my face
And say it's already passed
Putting on courage
But it's so much baggage
That I don't even know where I'm headed
Na, na, ra, na
Without you, I won't make it
I know it's late to turn back
But in the end, you'll be there
Wake me up when it's over
The smile on my face
It doesn't say how I'm really feeling
Sometimes I put on my disguise
And when the day is over
I forget who I am
Na, na, ra, na
...
Without you, I won't make it
I know it's late to turn back
But in the end, you'll be there
Wake me up when it's over
Try again
Or forget me forever
I've already tried to dodge it, but
Everything points to my wounded chest
Nails and nails
Without you, I won't make it
I know it's late to turn back
But in the end, you'll be there
Wake me up when it's over
The smile on my face
It doesn't say how I'm really feeling
Sometimes I put on my disguise
And when the day is over
I forget who I am
Na, na, ra, na
...
Without you, I won't make it
I know it's late to turn back
But in the end, you'll be there
Wake me up when it's over
The smile on my face
It doesn't say how I'm really feeling
Sometimes I put on my disguise
And when the day is over
I forget who I am
Na, na, ra, na
I forget who I am
...
