La Hiedra

The Ivy

La Hiedra

Life wrapped him up in its sweetLa vida lo enredó en su miel
And in its cruel thicketY en su cruel matorral
He has no ideas or joy,No tiene ideas ni placer,
No flowers to gatherNo hay flores para armar
He fears it without reason,Le teme y sin razón de ser,
Afraid of what’s to comeAl miedo de llegar

He no longer harvests love and nowYa no cosecha amor y hoy
His field is made of steel.Su campo es de metal.
The memories in his mind are rubbleLos recuerdos de su mente son escombros
And he must understandY debe entender
How to piece it all back togetherCómo unir de nuevo otra vez
What he didn’t want to breakLo que no quiso romper
And the tales of his story are swarmsY los cuentos de su historia son enjambres
And he must understandY debe entender

How to do it all over againCómo hacer de nuevo esta vez
So he won’t lose his faith.Para no perder su fe.
Life taught him once,La vida le enseño una vez,
To bend but not break.Doblarse y no quebrar.
He has no excuses for selling out,No tiene excusas por vender,
No flowers left to heal.No hay flores que curar.
He fears it and doesn’t want to see,Le teme y no lo quiere ver,
Afraid of forgettingAl miedo de olvidar

He no longer fits the role and nowYa no le cabe el rol y hoy
His guilt is just waitingSu culpa es esperar
The memories in his mind are rubbleLos recuerdos de su mente son escombros
And he must understandY debe entender
How to piece it all back togetherCómo unir de nuevo otra vez
What he didn’t want to breakLo que no quiso romper
And the tales of his story are swarmsY los cuentos de su historia son enjambres
And he must understandY debe entender
How to do it all over againCómo hacer de nuevo esta vez
So he won’t forget who he was.Para no olvidar quién fue
