vampire
Letra:
[English]
I hate to give the satisfaction asking, "How you're doing now?"
How's the castle built off people you pretend to care about?
Just what you wanted
Look at you, cool guy, you got it
I see the parties and the diamonds
Sometimes when I close my eyes
Six months of torture you sold as some forbidden paradise
I loved you truly
You gotta laugh at the stupidity
'Cause I've made some real big mistakes
But you make the worst one look fine
I should've known it was strange
You only come out at night
I used to think I was smart
But you made me look so naive
The way you sold me for parts
As you sunk your teeth into me, oh
Bloodsucker, dream crusher
Bleeding me dry like a damn vampire
...
And every girl I ever talked to
Told me you were bad, bad news
You called them crazy
God, I hate the way I called them crazy too
You're so convincing
How do you lie without flinching?
(How do you lie? How do you lie? How do you lie?)
Ooh, what a mesmerizing, paralyzing, tragic little thrill
Can't figure out just how you do it, and God knows I never will
Went for me and not her
'Cause girls your age know better
I've made some real big mistakes
But you make the worst one look fine
I should've known it was strange
You only come out at night
I used to think I was smart
But you made me look so naive
The way you sold me for parts
As you sunk your teeth into me, oh
Bloodsucker, dream crusher
Bleeding me dry like a damn vampire
...
You said, "It was true love", but wouldn't that be hard?
You can't love anyone, 'cause that would mean you had a heart
I tried you help you out, now I know that I can't
'Cause how you think's the kind of thing I'll never understand
...
I've made some real big mistakes
But you make the worst one look fine
I should've known it was strange
You only come out at night
I used to think I was smart
But you made me look so naive
The way you sold me for parts
As you sunk your teeth into me, oh
Bloodsucker, dream crusher
Bleeding me dry like a damn vampire
...

Gramática:
-
I hate to give the satisfaction asking, "How you're doing now?"
➔ Infinitivo de propósito (to give)
➔ O infinitivo "to give" expressa o *propósito* do ódio. O orador odeia a ideia de conceder satisfação *ao* perguntar como a outra pessoa está.
-
How's the castle built off people you pretend to care about?
➔ Oração relativa reduzida (built off)
➔ "built off" é uma oração relativa reduzida. A oração completa seria "How's the castle *that was* built off people...". O pronome relativo "that" e o verbo auxiliar "was" são omitidos.
-
Six months of torture you sold as some forbidden paradise
➔ Pretérito simples (sold) e oração 'that' implícita (you sold (it) as..)
➔ O verbo "sold" está no pretérito simples, descrevendo uma ação concluída no passado. Também podemos adicionar a palavra "it" após o verbo "sold", que representa os "six months of torture". Portanto, a frase contém a conjunção 'that' oculta enquanto a oradora diz que foi enganada.
-
You gotta laugh at the stupidity
➔ "Gotta" (got to) - contração informal que expressa obrigação/necessidade.
➔ "Gotta" é uma contração coloquial de "got to," que significa "have to" ou "must." Implica um sentimento de necessidade de rir em resposta à estupidez.
-
I should've known it was strange
➔ Verbo modal de arrependimento (should have + particípio passado)
➔ "should've known" expressa arrependimento ou uma oportunidade perdida. Significa que o orador agora percebe que algo era estranho no passado, mas não o reconheceu naquele momento.
-
And every girl I ever talked to told me you were bad, bad news
➔ Oração Relativa (I ever talked to), Pretérito Imperfeito no Discurso Indireto (you were bad, bad news)
➔ "I ever talked to" é uma oração relativa que modifica "every girl". Isso especifica a quais garotas ela está se referindo. A frase "you were bad, bad news" é discurso indireto; a declaração original feita pelas garotas provavelmente foi "you are bad, bad news."
-
You said, "It was true love", but wouldn't that be hard?
➔ Pretérito Simples (said, was), Oração Condicional Tipo 1 (wouldn't that be hard?)
➔ "You said" e "It was" estão ambos no pretérito simples, descrevendo ações concluídas no passado. "Wouldn't that be hard?" é uma pergunta condicional do tipo 1. A oração condicional completa implícita seria algo como "*If it were true love,* wouldn't that be hard?"
