Turtles All the Way Down

Lyrics Translation

Introducing Metamodern Sounds in Country Music

I've seen Jesus play with flames
In a lake of fire that I was standing in
Met the devil in Seattle
And spent nine months inside the lions den
Met Buddha yet another time
And he showed me a glowing light within
But I swear that God is there
Every time I glare into the eyes of my best friend

Says my son, "It's all been done
And someday you're gonna wake up old and gray
So go and try to have some fun
Showing warmth to everyone
You meet and greet and cheat along the way"

There's a gateway in our minds
That leads somewhere out there, far beyond this plane
Where reptile aliens made of light
Cut you open and pull out all your pain
Tell me how you make illegal
Something that we all make in our brain
Some say you might go crazy
But then again, it might make you go sane

Every time I take a look
Inside that old and fabled book
I'm blinded and reminded of
The pain caused by some old man in the sky
Marijuana, LSD
Psilocybin, and DMT
They all changed the way I see
But love's the only thing that ever saved my life

So don't waste your mind on nursery rhymes
Or fairy tales of blood and wine
It's turtles all the way down the line
So to each their own 'til we go home
To other realms our souls must roam
To and through the myth that we all call space and time

Apresentando Metamodern Sounds in Country Music
I've seen Jesus play with flames
Eu vi Jesus brincar com chamas
In a lake of fire that I was standing in
Em um lago de fogo em que eu estava de pé
Met the devil in Seattle
Encontrei o diabo em Seattle
And spent nine months inside the lions den
E passei nove meses dentro da toca do leão
Met Buddha yet another time
Encontrei Buda mais uma vez
And he showed me a glowing light within
E ele me mostrou uma luz brilhante dentro de mim
But I swear that God is there
Mas eu juro que Deus está lá
Every time I glare into the eyes of my best friend
Toda vez que olho nos olhos do meu melhor amigo
Says my son, "It's all been done
Diz meu filho, "Já foi tudo feito
And someday you're gonna wake up old and gray
E um dia você vai acordar velho e cinza
So go and try to have some fun
Então vá e tente se divertir
Showing warmth to everyone
Mostrando calor para todos
You meet and greet and cheat along the way"
Você encontra e cumprimenta e engana pelo caminho"
There's a gateway in our minds
Há um portal em nossas mentes
That leads somewhere out there, far beyond this plane
Que leva a algum lugar lá fora, muito além deste plano
Where reptile aliens made of light
Onde alienígenas répteis feitos de luz
Cut you open and pull out all your pain
Te cortam e tiram toda a sua dor
Tell me how you make illegal
Me diga como você torna ilegal
Something that we all make in our brain
Algo que todos nós fazemos em nosso cérebro
Some say you might go crazy
Alguns dizem que você pode enlouquecer
But then again, it might make you go sane
Mas, por outro lado, pode te fazer ficar são
Every time I take a look
Toda vez que dou uma olhada
Inside that old and fabled book
Naquele velho e famoso livro
I'm blinded and reminded of
Fico cego e lembro
The pain caused by some old man in the sky
Da dor causada por algum velho no céu
Marijuana, LSD
Maconha, LSD
Psilocybin, and DMT
Psilocibina e DMT
They all changed the way I see
Todos mudaram a maneira como eu vejo
But love's the only thing that ever saved my life
Mas o amor é a única coisa que já salvou minha vida
So don't waste your mind on nursery rhymes
Então não desperdice sua mente com rimas infantis
Or fairy tales of blood and wine
Ou contos de fadas de sangue e vinho
It's turtles all the way down the line
São tartarugas até o fim da linha
So to each their own 'til we go home
Então, cada um com o seu até irmos para casa
To other realms our souls must roam
Para outros reinos nossas almas devem vagar
To and through the myth that we all call space and time
Para e através do mito que todos chamamos de espaço e tempo

I've seen Jesus play with flames
He visto a Jesús jugar con las llamas
In a lake of fire that I was standing in
En un lago de fuego en el que estaba parado
Met the devil in Seattle
Conocí al diablo en Seattle
And spent nine months inside the lions den
Y pasé nueve meses dentro del foso de los leones
Met Buddha yet another time
Conocí a Buda otra vez
And he showed me a glowing light within
Y me mostró una luz brillante dentro
But I swear that God is there
Pero te juro que Dios está ahí
Every time I glare into the eyes of my best friend
Cada vez que miro a los ojos de mi mejor amiga
Says my son, "It's all been done
Dice mi hijo, "Todo se ha hecho
And someday you're gonna wake up old and gray
Y algún día te despertarás viejo y gris
So go and try to have some fun
Así que ve y trata de divertirte
Showing warmth to everyone
Mostrando calidez a todos
You meet and greet and cheat along the way"
Los que te encuentres, saludes y engañes en el camino"
There's a gateway in our minds
Hay una puerta de entrada en nuestras mentes
That leads somewhere out there, far beyond this plane
Que lleva a algún lugar allá afuera, mucho más allá de este plano
Where reptile aliens made of light
Donde reptiles extraterrestres hechos de luz
Cut you open and pull out all your pain
Te rajan y sacan todo tu dolor
Tell me how you make illegal
Dime cómo haces ilegal
Something that we all make in our brain
Algo que todos hacemos en nuestro cerebro
Some say you might go crazy
Algunos dicen que podrías volverte loco
But then again, it might make you go sane
Pero, de nuevo, podría volverte cuerdo
Every time I take a look
Cada vez que miro
Inside that old and fabled book
Dentro de ese libro viejo y legendario
I'm blinded and reminded of
Quedo cegado y recuerdo
The pain caused by some old man in the sky
El dolor causado por algún viejo en el cielo
Marijuana, LSD
Marihuana, LSD
Psilocybin, and DMT
Psilocibina y DMT
They all changed the way I see
Todos cambiaron mi forma de ver
But love's the only thing that ever saved my life
Pero el amor es lo único que me salvó la vida
So don't waste your mind on nursery rhymes
Así que no desperdicies tu mente en rimas infantiles
Or fairy tales of blood and wine
O cuentos de hadas de sangre y vino
It's turtles all the way down the line
Son todos tortugas al final de la línea
So to each their own 'til we go home
Así que cada uno por su cuenta hasta que nos vayamos a casa
To other realms our souls must roam
A otros reinos nuestras almas deben vagar
To and through the myth that we all call space and time
Hacia y a través del mito que todos llamamos espacio y tiempo

Vers et à travers le mythe que nous appelons tous l'espace et le temps

แนะนำเสียงเมทาโมเดิร์นในดนตรีคันทรี
I've seen Jesus play with flames
ฉันเคยเห็นพระเยซูเล่นกับเปลวไฟ
In a lake of fire that I was standing in
ในทะเลสาบแห่งไฟที่ฉันยืนอยู่
Met the devil in Seattle
พบปีศาจในซีแอตเทิล
And spent nine months inside the lions den
และใช้เวลาเก้าเดือนในถ้ำของสิงโต
Met Buddha yet another time
พบพระพุทธเจ้าอีกครั้งหนึ่ง
And he showed me a glowing light within
และพระองค์ได้แสดงแสงสว่างภายในให้ฉันเห็น
But I swear that God is there
แต่ฉันสาบานได้ว่าพระเจ้าอยู่ที่นั่น
Every time I glare into the eyes of my best friend
ทุกครั้งที่ฉันจ้องตาเพื่อนฉันที่ดีที่สุด
Says my son, "It's all been done
ลูกชายของฉันบอกว่า "ทุกอย่างมันเกิดขึ้นแล้ว
And someday you're gonna wake up old and gray
และวันหนึ่งคุณจะตื่นขึ้นมาพร้อมกับผมหงอก
So go and try to have some fun
ดังนั้นไปและพยายามสนุกสนานบ้าง
Showing warmth to everyone
แสดงความอบอุ่นต่อทุกคน
You meet and greet and cheat along the way"
ที่คุณพบเจอและโกงไปตามทาง"
There's a gateway in our minds
มีประตูทางเข้าในจิตใจของเรา
That leads somewhere out there, far beyond this plane
ที่นำไปสู่ที่ใดสักแห่งที่อยู่ไกลเกินกว่าโลกนี้

ที่มีเอเลี่ยนจำพวกสัตว์เลื้อยคลานที่ทำจากแสง
Cut you open and pull out all your pain
ผ่าคุณออกและดึงความเจ็บปวดทั้งหมดออกมา

บอกฉันว่าคุณทำอย่างไรให้ผิดกฎหมาย
Something that we all make in our brain

ข้างในหนังสือเล่มโบราณนั้น
I'm blinded and reminded of
ฉันถูกทำให้ตาบอดและรำลึกถึง

So don't waste your mind on nursery rhymes
ดังนั้นอย่าเสียเวลาของคุณกับเพลงกล่อมเด็ก
Or fairy tales of blood and wine
หรือนิทานเรื่องเลือดและไวน์
It's turtles all the way down the line
มันเป็นเต่าตลอดทาง
So to each their own 'til we go home
ดังนั้นแต่ละคนจะมีของตัวเองจนกว่าเราจะกลับบ้าน
To other realms our souls must roam
ไปยังอาณาจักรอื่นที่วิญญาณของเราต้องเดินทาง
To and through the myth that we all call space and time
ไปและผ่านตำนานที่เราทุกคนเรียกว่าอวกาศและเวลา
