El Porqué de Tus Silencios

The Reason for Your Silences

El Porqué de Tus Silencios

The reason for your silencesEl porqué de tus silencios
What you want to hideQue quieres ocultar
The reason for so much timeEl porqué de tanto tiempo
Without speakingSin hablar

God forbid you from inventingDios te libre de inventar
From lying or keeping quietDe mentir o de callar
When you singCuando cantas
Like a defenseless birdComo un pájaro indefenso

Under the stormBajo la tempestad
You still find reasonsAún encuentras fundamentos
In the cruel ruinEn la ruina cruel
Of your memory when rememberingDe tu memoria al recordar

The reasonEl porqué
For your silencesDe tus silencios
And the footprints of your feetY las huellas de tus pies
In the sand in front of the seaEn la arena frente al mar
Erased by the ebb and flow of the watersBorradas por el vaivén de las aguas

The end is the beginningEl fin es el comienzo
No one is waiting for you anymoreYa nadie te espera
You don't know if you're going out or coming inNo sabes si sales o si entras
These are family mattersSon asuntos de familia
That cannot be dealt withQue no se pueden tratar

People don't changeLa gente no cambia
Genes don't deceiveLos genes no engañan
And your arrows never hitY tus flechas nunca dan
The centerEn el centro

Of the targetDel blanco de la diana
And the footprints of your feetY las huellas de tus pies
In the sand in front of the seaEn la arena frente al mar
Erased by the ebb and flow of the watersBorradas por el vaivén de las aguas

The end is the beginningEl fin es el comienzo
No one is waiting for you anymoreYa nadie te espera
You don't know if you're going out or coming inNo sabes si sales o si entras
How difficult it is to be able to put¡Qué difícil es poder poner
Every dayTodos los días
A little lightUn poco de luz
In your veins!En tus venas!

And the footprints of your feetY las huellas de tus pies
In the sand in front of the seaEn la arena frente al mar
Erased by the ebb and flow of the watersBorradas por el vaivén de las aguas

The end is the beginningEl fin es el comienzo
No one is waiting for you anymoreYa nadie te espera
You don't know if you're going out or coming inNo sabes si sales o si entras
