Bicho do Mato

See this skin of mine
Is made of sun, and leaves, and trees
And if you look really close, you’ll see
There is rot, and bugs and seeds

Hear the silent steps

Watch them grow, and feed, and run

And see the blood, the birth, and the love

Maybe then you will learn


Where is this? Where am I?

Where is this? That’s not mine!


Please, put me back

In the body I belong

I’m a finger lost

Where’s my leaves? And where’s my bones?

Please, put me back

In the forest I belong

I’m a finger lost

Where’s my leaves? And where’s my bones?

Please, put me back

Whooooooah

Oh, put me back!

Where’s my leaves? And where’s my bones?


Look into my mouth

You’ll see the sky, the moon, the clouds

And if I decide to make it rain

Will you drown? And who’s to blame?


Where is this? Where am I?

Where is this? That’s not mine!


Please, put me back

In the body I belong

I’m a finger lost

Where’s my leaves? And where’s my bones?

Please, put me back

In the forest I belong

I’m a finger lost

Where’s my leaves? And where’s my bones?

Please, put me back

Whooooooah

Oh, put me back!

Where’s my leaves? And where’s my bones?


Like a beast, like a bird

Like a seed and like a tree

See, we are together since we’re born

And when I die, she’s what I’ll see


Please, put me back

In the body I belong

I’m a finger lost

Where’s my leaves? And where’s my bones?

Please, put me back

In the forest I belong

I’m a finger lost

Where’s my leaves? And where’s my bones?

Please, put me back

Whooooooah

Oh, put me back!

Where’s my leaves? And where’s my bones?
