Lyrics

Español

Nació de ti... buscando una canción que nos uniera, y hoy sé que es cruel brutal -quizá- el castigo que te doy. Sin palabras esta música va a herirte, dondequiera que la escuche tu traición... La noche más absurda, el día más triste. Cuando estés riendo, o cuando llore tu ilusión. Perdóname si es Dios, quien quiso castigarte al fin... Si hay llantos que pueden perseguir así, si estas notas que nacieron por tu amor, al final son un cilicio que abre heridas de una historia... ¡Son suplicios, son memorias... fantoche herido, mi dolor, se alzará, cada vez, que oigas esta canción!... Nació de ti... mintiendo entre esperanzas un destino, y hoy sé que es cruel, brutal -quizá- el castigo que te doy... Sin decirlo esta canción dirá tu nombre, sin decirlo con tu nombre estaré yo. Los ojos casi ciegos de mi asombro, junto al asombro de perderte y no morir.

English · machine translation

Born from you... looking for a song to unite us, and today I know that it's cruel and brutal -perhaps- the punishment I give you. Without words this music will hurt you, wherever your betrayal hears it... The most absurd night, the saddest day. When you're laughing, or when your illusion cries. Forgive me if it is God Who wanted to punish you at last... If there are cries that can haunt so, if these notes that were born for your love, in the end are a cilice that opens wounds of a story... They are tortures, they are memories... wounded puppet, my pain, it will rise, each time, you hear this song!... It was born of you... lying between hopes of a destiny, and today I know that it is cruel, brutal -perhaps- the punishment I give you... Without saying it this song will say your name, without saying it with your name I will be me. The almost blind eyes of my astonishment, together with the astonishment of losing you and not dying.
