Quiero Cantar

I Want to Sing

Quiero Cantar

Not imagining a world without bordersNo imaginar un mundo sin fronteras
It ties us and condemns usNos amarra y nos condena
To this divided map without reasonA este mapa dividido sin razón

A river that doesn't bleed poisonUn río que no sangre en el veneno
A love without prisoners or labelsUn amor sin prisioneros ni etiquetas
Just unconditional loveSolo amor sin condición

A verse that doesn't offend and defendsUn verso que no ofenda y que defienda
That doesn't think and doesn't thinkQue no piense y que no piensa
And doesn't take the song hostageY que no tome de rehén a la canción

I'm not talking about judging or setting an exampleNo hablo de juzgar ni dar ejemplo
God is not the same as a templeNo es lo mismo Dios que un templo
As the one that burns with meaning in a heartQue el que arde con sentido en un corazón

We had reached an agreementHabíamos llegado a un acuerdo
We wouldn't say the thingsNo diríamos las cosas
that would dig graves of disillusionque cavaran fosas de desilusión

To avoid falling into this spacePara evitar caer en este espacio
Where yesterday was a prefaceDonde ayer era un prefacio
To the inevitable of this conclusionDe lo inevitable de esta conclusión

But it doesn't matter, we're not perfectPero no importa, no somos perfectos
Don't hold me accountable for what I sayNo me des cuentas por esto que te digo
It's one of those days where it all mixes upEs un día de esos donde se me mezcla
Childhood, adolescence, the figure without presenceLa niñez, la adolescencia, la figura sin presencia
And my head is going to explodeY mi cabeza va estallar
And I become a little crazy to singY yo me vuelvo un poco loco por cantar

I want to sing, just singQuiero cantar, solo cantar
I want to aim for the sky and take offQuiero apuntar al cielo y despegar
I want to sing, just singQuiero cantar, solo cantar
Break myself a little, belong to everyoneDespedazarme un poco, ser de todos
I want to singQuiero cantar

As soon as dawn breaks on the other sideApenas amanezca al otro lado
I will return to the center of the earthVoy a regresar al centro de la tierra
In the ritual of songsEn el ritual de las canciones

And all this neurosis and these nervesY toda esta neurosis y estos nervios
Will calm their pretensionsCalmarán sus pretenciones
I'll call, I'll say I'm sorryLlamaré, diré lo siento
I'm getting betterYa me estoy poniendo bueno
I can sense itYa lo puedo presentir

I want to sing, just singQuiero cantar, solo cantar
I want to aim for the sky and take offQuiero apuntar al cielo y despegar
I want to sing, just singQuiero cantar, solo cantar
Break myself a little, belong to everyoneDespedazarme un poco, ser de todos
I want to singQuiero cantar

A river that doesn't bleed poisonUn río que no sangre ni el veneno
A love without prisoners or labelsUn amor sin prisioneros ni etiquetas
Just unconditional loveSolo amor sin condición
