We Knew They Were Coming

Aquí está la casa que albergaba la buena vidaHere’s the house that held the good life
Aquí está la casa que albergaba la pesadilla que continuabaHere’s the house that held the nightmare that went on

El daño causado por extraños, como se predijoThe damage done by strangers, as foretold
Te maldigo, te odio, despreciamos tu llegadaI curse you, I hate you, we despise your arrival

Aquí está el lugar que albergaba todas las cosas verdaderasHere’s the place that held all things true
Un refugio de la norma en este valle gris del tiempoA shelter from the norm in this grey valley of time

El daño causado a extraños, como se esperabaThe damage done to strangers, as expected
La marea entra, salvaje, como olas de concretoThe tide comes in, savage, like waves of concrete

Todas esas aves enjauladas aquí para gobernarnos, desesperadasAll those caged birds here to rule us, desperate
Sabíamos que iban a venirWe knew they were coming
Esto es la nada que todos traen, el vacíoThis is the nothing they all bring, the emptiness
Sabíamos que veníaWe knew it was coming
Ciudades feas y pueblos pequeños muertos, páramosUgly cities and dead small towns, wastelands
Sabíamos que iban a venirWe knew they were coming

Como moscas, como abejas, como fuego rodeando todo lo hermosoLike flies, like bees, like fire surrounding everything beautiful
Alcanza el cielo nocturno, pero la luna te odiaReach out to the night sky, but the moon hates you

Y te odio tanto, retaliaciónAnd I hate you so much, retaliation
Sabíamos que iban a venirWe knew they were coming
Una sal diferente en su sangre, y sabíamos, simplemente sabíamosA different salt in their blood, and we knew, we just knew
Sabíamos que iban a venirWe knew they were coming

Aquí está la casa que albergaba la pesadilla que continuabaHere’s the house that held the nightmare that went on
