I am wasted, losing time
On a foolish, fragile spine
I want all that is not mine
I want him but we're not right
In the darkness, I will meet my creators
And they will all agree, that I'm a suffocator
I should go now quietly
For my bones have found a place to lie down and sleep
Where all my layers can become reeds
All my limbs can become trees
All my children can become me
What a mess I leave
To follow
To follow
To follow
To follow
In the darkness, I will meet my creators
And they will all agree that I'm a suffocator, suffocator, suffocator
Oh love
I'm sorry if I smothered you
I'm sorry if I smothered you
I sometimes wish I'd stayed inside
My mother
Never to come out
A Melancolia e Reflexão em Smother de Daughter
A música Smother, da banda Daughter, é uma expressão intensa de vulnerabilidade e introspecção. A letra, carregada de emoção, parece explorar temas de desejo, inadequação e a inevitável consequência de nossas ações. A frase inicial 'I'm wasted, losing time' sugere um sentimento de arrependimento e desperdício de tempo, talvez em relações ou em escolhas de vida. A autodeclaração de ser uma 'foolish, fragile spine' reforça a ideia de fragilidade e insegurança da narradora, que reconhece suas limitações e a dor de desejar algo ou alguém que percebe como inalcançável ou inadequado ('I want him but we're not right').
A repetição da linha 'In the darkness I will meet my creators' pode ser interpretada como um encontro com os aspectos mais profundos de si mesma ou, de forma mais literal, como um encontro com a morte ou o fim. Os 'criadores' podem ser vistos como figuras de autoridade ou até mesmo como uma representação de suas origens e essência. A admissão de ser uma 'suffocator' sugere uma luta interna com a tendência de sufocar ou oprimir, talvez em um contexto amoroso, onde o amor intenso pode se tornar opressivo ('I'm sorry if I smothered you').
A última estrofe da música traz uma imagem poderosa de retorno ao útero ('I sometimes wish I'd stayed inside / My mother'), que pode simbolizar um desejo de escapar das complexidades e dores do mundo exterior, buscando refúgio na pureza e segurança do início da vida. A música, portanto, é um mergulho na alma de alguém que lida com sentimentos de arrependimento, desejo e a busca por redenção ou aceitação, tanto interna quanto externa. A banda Daughter é conhecida por suas letras introspectivas e sombrias, e Smother é um exemplo marcante dessa característica, convidando o ouvinte a refletir sobre as profundezas da experiência humana.
I am wasted, losing time
Estou perdido, desperdiçando tempo
On a foolish, fragile spine
Em uma espinha frágil e tola
I want all that is not mine
Eu quero tudo que não é meu
I want him but we're not right
Eu o quero, mas não estamos bem
In the darkness, I will meet my creators
Na escuridão, encontrarei meus criadores
And they will all agree, that I'm a suffocator
E todos eles concordarão que eu sou um sufocador
I should go now quietly
Eu deveria ir agora silenciosamente
For my bones have found a place to lie down and sleep
Pois meus ossos encontraram um lugar para deitar e dormir
Where all my layers can become reeds
Onde todas as minhas camadas podem se tornar juncos
All my limbs can become trees
Todos os meus membros podem se tornar árvores
All my children can become me
Todos os meus filhos podem se tornar eu
What a mess I leave
Que bagunça eu deixo

In the darkness, I will meet my creators
Na escuridão, encontrarei meus criadores
And they will all agree that I'm a suffocator, suffocator, suffocator
E todos eles concordarão que eu sou um sufocador, sufocador, sufocador
Oh love
Oh amor
I'm sorry if I smothered you
Desculpe se eu te sufocava
I'm sorry if I smothered you
Desculpe se eu te sufocava
I sometimes wish I'd stayed inside
Às vezes, eu gostaria de ter ficado dentro
My mother
Da minha mãe
Never to come out
Nunca para sair
I am wasted, losing time
Estoy desperdiciado, perdiendo tiempo
On a foolish, fragile spine
En una columna tonta y frágil
I want all that is not mine
Quiero todo lo que no es mío
I want him but we're not right
Lo quiero a él, pero no somos adecuados
In the darkness, I will meet my creators
En la oscuridad, conoceré a mis creadores
And they will all agree, that I'm a suffocator
Y todos estarán de acuerdo en que soy un sofocador
I should go now quietly
Debería irme ahora en silencio
For my bones have found a place to lie down and sleep
Porque mis huesos han encontrado un lugar para descansar y dormir
Where all my layers can become reeds
Donde todas mis capas pueden convertirse en juncos
All my limbs can become trees
Todos mis miembros pueden convertirse en árboles
All my children can become me
Todos mis hijos pueden convertirse en mí

My mother

Never to come out
Sin salir nunca más
I am wasted, losing time
Je suis gaspillé, perdant du temps
On a foolish, fragile spine
Sur une colonne vertébrale stupide et fragile
I want all that is not mine
Je veux tout ce qui n'est pas à moi
I want him but we're not right
Je le veux lui, mais nous ne sommes pas bien ensemble
In the darkness, I will meet my creators
Dans l'obscurité, je rencontrerai mes créateurs
And they will all agree, that I'm a suffocator
Et ils seront tous d'accord, que je suis un suffocateur
I should go now quietly
Je devrais partir maintenant tranquillement
For my bones have found a place to lie down and sleep
Car mes os ont trouvé un endroit pour se coucher et dormir
Where all my layers can become reeds
Où toutes mes couches peuvent devenir des roseaux
All my limbs can become trees
Tous mes membres peuvent devenir des arbres
All my children can become me
Tous mes enfants peuvent devenir moi
What a mess I leave
Quel désordre je laisse

My mother

Never to come out
Jamais pour sortir
I am wasted, losing time
Ich bin verschwendet, verliere Zeit
On a foolish, fragile spine
Auf einem törichten, zerbrechlichen Rückgrat
I want all that is not mine
Ich will alles, was nicht meins ist
I want him but we're not right
Ich will ihn, aber wir passen nicht zusammen
In the darkness, I will meet my creators
In der Dunkelheit werde ich meine Schöpfer treffen
And they will all agree, that I'm a suffocator
Und sie werden alle zustimmen, dass ich ein Erstickender bin
I should go now quietly
Ich sollte jetzt leise gehen
For my bones have found a place to lie down and sleep
Denn meine Knochen haben einen Platz zum Liegen und Schlafen gefunden
Where all my layers can become reeds
Wo all meine Schichten zu Schilf werden können
All my limbs can become trees
Alle meine Gliedmaßen können zu Bäumen werden
All my children can become me
Alle meine Kinder können zu mir werden
What a mess I leave
Was für ein Durcheinander hinterlasse ich

Sono sprecato, perdo tempo
On a foolish, fragile spine

I want him but we're not right
Lo voglio lui, ma non siamo giusti
In the darkness, I will meet my creators
Nell'oscurità, incontrerò i miei creatori
And they will all agree, that I'm a suffocator
E tutti saranno d'accordo, che sono un soffocatore
I should go now quietly
Dovrei andare ora in silenzio
For my bones have found a place to lie down and sleep
Perché le mie ossa hanno trovato un posto per sdraiarsi e dormire
Where all my layers can become reeds
Dove tutti i miei strati possono diventare canne
All my limbs can become trees
Tutti i miei arti possono diventare alberi
All my children can become me
Tutti i miei figli possono diventare me

All my limbs can become trees
Semua anggota tubuh saya bisa menjadi pohon
All my children can become me
Semua anak saya bisa menjadi saya

All my limbs can become trees
