Mentiras Sinceras

Honest Lies

Mentiras Sinceras

There are silences that say it allHay silencios que lo dicen todo
And words that say nothingY palabras que no dicen nada
There are sanities that drive me crazyHay corduras que me vuelven loco
And dark nights of hopeY noches negras de esperanza

There are riches that make us poorHay riquezas que nos hacen pobres
And forgiveness that only accuseY perdones que tan solo acusan
Great freedoms, hidden censorshipGrandes libertades, que censura esconden
And disguises that strip youY disfraces que te desnudan

And there are shots that life gives meY hay disparos que me da la vida
And loves that truly killY amores que matan de veras
There are insults that are poetryHay insultos que son poesía
And laughs that hold sadnessY risas que guardan tristezas
It's always the same ironyEs siempre la misma ironía
The arrow has two endsTiene dos puntas la flecha
There are truths that are lies and honest liesHay verdades que son mentiras y mentiras sinceras

There are dangers that ultimately save meHay peligros que al final me salvan
Courages that awaken fearsValentías que despiertan miedos
Among labyrinths that guide the wayEntre laberintos, que el camino encausan
Footprints that don't touch the groundHuellas que no tocan el suelo

And there are shots that life gives meY hay disparos que me da la vida
And loves that truly killY amores que matan de veras
There are insults that are poetryHay insultos que son poesía
And laughs that hold sadnessY risas que guardan tristezas
It's always the same ironyEs siempre la misma ironía
The arrow has two endsTiene dos puntas la flecha
There are truths that are liesHay verdades que son mentiras

That's the lesson I learn every dayEsa es la lección que aprendo cada día
I'll only close my eyes when I want to seeSolo cerrare mis ojos cuando quiera ver

And there are shots that life gives meY hay disparos que me da la vida
And loves that truly killY amores que matan de veras
There are insults that are poetryHay insultos que son poesía
And laughs that hold sadnessY risas que guardan tristezas
It's always the same ironyEs siempre la misma ironía
The arrow has two endsTiene dos puntas la flecha
There are truths that are lies and honest liesHay verdades que son mentiras y mentiras sinceras
