To The Deeds We Missed
To all those rays of hope, to those flops and blunders
Opportunities which just slipped through my fingers
To those boats I never caught and to tormented sleep
To those folks I wanted to be, only idols, not for keeps
Misunderstandings, words unspoken, all the lies
The moments I thought shared that fade before my eyes
Things said so quickly that you don't mean what you say
To those who couldn't see things my way
To the deeds we missed
Those years wasted in trying to act the clown
The walls in front of me that I could not push down
To all those things I missed, which now remain unknown
To all those things I'd much better not have known
The world with its pains, I no longer am afraid
The notes, the melodies, I really wish I'd played
All the words that others put in rhyme that left me stunned
Like so many children who never knew to land of the living
To the deeds we missed
To loves that break apart because they'd loved too much
Faces and their features that were only light brushed
To treasons that I made that left me so untouched
To those living who should not be as such
To our destinies for which we have no control
To an the masks that circumstances made me put on
To our weaknesses, our forgetfulness and our desperations
To fears which must remain in our possession
To the deeds we missed
A Los Actos Que Perdimos
A todos esos rayos de esperanza, a esos fracasos y errores
Oportunidades que simplemente se me escaparon de las manos
A esos barcos que nunca atrapé y al sueño atormentado
A esas personas que quise ser, solo ídolos, no para siempre
Malentendidos, palabras no dichas, todas las mentiras
Los momentos que pensé compartidos que se desvanecen ante mis ojos
Cosas dichas tan rápidamente que no significan lo que dices
A aquellos que no pudieron ver las cosas a mi manera
A los actos que perdimos
Esos años desperdiciados intentando actuar como payaso
Las paredes frente a mí que no pude derribar
A todas esas cosas que perdí, que ahora permanecen desconocidas
A todas esas cosas que hubiera preferido no haber conocido
El mundo con sus dolores, ya no tengo miedo
Las notas, las melodías, desearía haber tocado realmente
Todas las palabras que otros pusieron en rima que me dejaron atónito
Como tantos niños que nunca supieron del mundo de los vivos
A los actos que perdimos
A amores que se desmoronan porque amaron demasiado
Rostros y sus rasgos que solo fueron ligeramente acariciados
A traiciones que hice que me dejaron tan impasible
A aquellos vivos que no deberían ser como tal
A nuestros destinos sobre los cuales no tenemos control
A todas las máscaras que las circunstancias me obligaron a poner
A nuestras debilidades, nuestro olvido y nuestras desesperaciones
A los miedos que deben permanecer en nuestro poder
A los actos que perdimos
