Yo Era Yo

I Was Me

Yo Era Yo

I write so many thingsEscribo tantas cosas
Like leaves the wind fliesComo hojas vuela el viento
Like themes I have left behind due to remorseComo temas he dejado atrás por el remordimiento
Like fingertips pressing on the throatComo yemas de mis dedos apretando en la garganta
Begging for all that sin to come outSuplicando que saliese todo aquel pecado en acta

I laugh, they wouldn't understandMe río, no lo entenderían
Pills after pillsPastillas tras pastillas
Always the same monotonySiempre la misma monotonía
Was I born to be that girlAcaso nací yo para ser esa niña
Who marries the reflection of the one who runs away every dayQue se casa con el reflejo del que huye día a día
Blessed idle hours, to lose consciousnessBenditas horas muertas, para perder la conciencia
To not be that weight that weighs on my headPara no ser yo ese peso que me pesa en la cabeza
So that my eyes close and close the wounds within mePara que mis ojos se cierren y cierren las heridas que hay en mi

Without their support, I drag my body rubbleSin su apoyo tiro de mi cuerpo escombro
Spitting blood against the currentEscupiendo sangre con la corriente en mi contra
And if I drown, don't worry, fatherY si me ahogo, no te rayes padre
That's not what mattersNo es eso lo que importa

It's just the memory that at that moment ITan solo es el recuerdo de que en su momento yo
Was meEra yo
I was meYo era yo
