Hoje É Tudo Ou Nada Lyrics in English by Pedro Abrunhosa & Os Bandemónio

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Hoje É Tudo Ou Nada by Pedro Abrunhosa & Os Bandemónio from Portuguese to English.
Acordas longe de ninguém
You wake up far from nobody
Sentes que ontem foste além
You feel that yesterday you went beyond
Não mãos um mundo que morreu
You don't hold a world that died
Lá fora um outro que não é teu
Outside, another one that isn't yours
Na estrada o carro não parou
On the road, the car didn't stop
Talvez alguém que não acreditou
Maybe someone who didn't believe
Que o corpo serve para voar
That the body is for flying
Sempre que a dôr se deixe amar
Whenever the pain lets itself be loved
E dizes que hoje vais mudar de vida
And you say that today you're going to change your life
Mas só mais uma para te mostrar onde é a saída
But just one more to show you where the exit is
Que é Tudo ou Nada
That it's All or Nothing
Que hoje é Tudo ou Nada
That today it's All or Nothing
Que hoje é Tudo ou Nada
That today it's All or Nothing
Que hoje é Tudo ou Nada
That today it's All or Nothing
Os sonhos já são de papel
The dreams are already paper
As noites um sonho cruel
The nights a cruel dream
Em cada porta alguém ausente
Behind every door someone absent
Um som distante, um céu diferente
A distant sound, a different sky
O alcatrão a mil à hora
The asphalt at a thousand an hour
Um instante que demora
An instant that lingers
A luz corta como metal
The light cuts like metal
A terra tem um sabor banal
The earth has a banal taste
E dizes que hoje vais mudar de vida
And you say that today you're going to change your life
Mas só mais uma para te mostrar onde é a saída
But just one more to show you where the exit is
Que é Tudo ou Nada
That it's All or Nothing
Que hoje é Tudo ou Nada
That today it's All or Nothing
Que hoje é Tudo ou Nada
That today it's All or Nothing
Que hoje é Tudo ou Nada
That today it's All or Nothing

Did you like this lyrics translation?

alcatrãoasphalt

Alcatrão translates to "asphalt" or "tar". It's an interesting word because while it refers to a common material, it's not often featured prominently in song lyrics, making it somewhat unique and memorable.

In the context of the song, "O alcatrão a mil à hora" (The asphalt at a thousand an hour) evokes a sense of speed, urgency, and perhaps danger or a relentless journey, adding a vivid, almost cinematic image to the narrative of change and uncertainty.
