Lyrics

Español

Te importó destrozarme la vida y arrastrar mi esperanza al espanto. Te importó que se hundieran en llanto, mi amor y mis sueños. ¿No es cierto que no? Te importó que grité de rodillas, no me hagas sufrir de este modo. Y querés que me olvide de todo, cerrando mis ojos a tanto dolor. Vos me has hecho mucho daño, te adoraba y me mentías. ¡Pero tanto, tanto daño, todo, todo el que podías! ¿Te parece todavía que te puedo perdonar? Vos serás como una herida para el resto de mi vida, pero otra cosa, ¡jamás! Si era yo quien te hubiese mentido, quien te hubiera llenado de agravios. Con la pura verdad en tus labios, no es cierto que harías, lo mismo que yo. Te callás porque se lo que digo, porque puedo gritar lo que siento, porque ahora no sos mi tormento, no sos mi locura, ni quiero tu amor.

English · machine translation

You cared about destroying my life and dragging my hope to horror. You cared that my love and my dreams should sink in tears, my love and my dreams. Didn't you? You cared that I cried out on my knees, don't make me suffer like this. And you want me to forget everything, closing my eyes to so much pain. You have hurt me so much, I adored you and you lied to me. But so much, so much damage, all, as much as you could! Do you still think that I can forgive you? You will be like a wound for the rest of my life, but something else, never! If it was me who had lied to you, who would have filled you with grievances. With the pure truth on your lips, it's not true that you would do the same as me. You keep quiet because I know what I say, because I can shout what I feel, because now you are not my torment, you are not my madness, nor do I want your love.
