Man Who Died Of Nothing At All
You say that you're slipping away
As you turn from the hand that could save you
You fell like a drunk down a well
Like a dog into Hell you were sinking
And you took it all in as a joke
As if you didn't know you were broken
Hiding out in the rain you stood soaking
Breathing in the glass to your last lung
All blackened and cracking and blue
Creeping through the slums of your old world
Where nothing about you is new
They laughed and as they turned their backs
You slid into a crack no one saw
And stayed there for a very long time
Dying of nothing at all
Though you went to the doctor to cope
And he sold you the new antidote
And he told you that you had been broken
They say you gave yourself away for a moment
But no one would take you
You said, I'm alive, but you're dead
Cause nothing about you is new
Even though you had been diagnosed
And were given the new antidote
And were numb to the rain and the soaking
You have been and always will be broken
Hombre que murió de la nada
Dices que te estás alejando
Mientras te apartas de la mano que podría salvarte
Caíste como un borracho en un pozo
Como un perro en el infierno estabas hundiéndote
Y lo tomaste todo como una broma
Como si no supieras que estabas roto
Escondiéndote bajo la lluvia te quedaste empapado
Respirando en el cristal hasta tu último aliento
Todo ennegrecido y agrietado y azul
Arrastrándote por los suburbios de tu viejo mundo
Donde nada de ti es nuevo
Se rieron y al dar la espalda
Te deslizaste en una grieta que nadie vio
Y te quedaste allí por mucho tiempo
Muriendo de la nada en absoluto
Aunque fuiste al médico para sobrellevarlo
Y te vendió el nuevo antídoto
Y te dijo que estabas roto
Dicen que te entregaste por un momento
Pero nadie te aceptaría
Dijiste, estoy vivo, pero estás muerto
Porque nada de ti es nuevo
Aunque te habían diagnosticado
Y te dieron el nuevo antídoto
Y estabas insensible a la lluvia y al empapado
Has sido y siempre serás un quebrado
