Libre

Free

Libre

The sound of a train wakes me upEl ruido de un tren me despierta
It's been 2 hours and a half that I've sleptFueron dos horas y media las que dormí
For breakfast I have a cigarY me desayuno un cigarro
And the mirror tells me I've never been thinnerY el espejo me dice estas más flaco que nunca
My room is a chaos of objectsMi cuarto es un caos de objetos
Nothing's in it's placeNada en su lugar

It's been a month since they've cut my phoneHace un mes me cortaron el teléfono
And this black and white TVY esta tele en blanco y negro
Doesn't want to workNo quiere funcionar
And your photo smiling on the sideY tu foto risueña a un costado
Although it seems cornyAunque parezca cursi
It brings me a tearMe provoca una lágrima
And the dog that was my only friendY el perro que era mi único amigo
Has found anotherSe busco otro amo

And I'm still hereY sigo aquí
As alone as a blonde in HarlemTan solo como un rubio en Harlem

And I'm free and it doesn't workY soy libre y no me sirve
Why would a tiger want freedom in the Moon?¿Para qué quiere la libertad en la Luna un tigre?
It doesn't workNo me sirve
I've shared my bed a hundred times and I want to leaveHe compartido mi cama cien veces y quiero irme
What's happening to me?¿Qué me pasa?
Where I live since you've been gone is no longer called homeA dónde vivo desde que no estás ya no le llamo casa

The night falls and all is silentCae la noche y todo es silencio
There is no one on the street thirty threeQueda sin nadie la calle treinta y tres
Tonight I will have to light a candleY esta noche hay que encender una vela
For not paying they cut my lightPor no pagar me cortaron la luz
And to top it all off the lady tells meY para colmo la señora me avisa
My rent is dueMi alquiler esta en mora

And I'm still hereY sigo aquí
As alone as a hippie in SiberiaTan solo como un hippie en Siberia

And I'm free and it doesn't workY soy libre y no me sirve
Why would a tiger want freedom in the Moon?¿Para qué quiere la libertad en la Luna un tigre?
It doesn't workNo me sirve
I've shared my bed a hundred times and I want to leaveHe compartido mi cama cien veces y quiero irme
What's happening to me?¿Qué me pasa?
Where I live since you've been gone is no longer called homeA dónde vivo desde que no estás ya no le llamo casa

And I'm free and it doesn't workY soy libre y no me sirve
Why would a tiger want freedom in the Moon?¿Para qué quiere la libertad en la Luna un tigre?
It doesn't workNo me sirve
I've shared my bed a hundred times and I want to leaveHe compartido mi cama cien veces y quiero irme
What's happening to me?¿Qué me pasa?
Where I live since you've been gone is no longer called homeA dónde vivo desde que no estás ya no le llamo casa
