Me Estoy Quedando Solo

I'm Left Alone

Me Estoy Quedando Solo

There are shreds of grudgesHay retazos de rencores
that have hiddenque se han escondido
in paths of nettlesen caminos de ortigas
where we became good friends,donde hicimos buenas migas,
there were goodbyes like anvilshubo adioses como yunques
and in your laughter tambourines soundedy en tu risa sonaron panderetas
that dried up my flowerpots,que secaron mis macetas,

with the little tears you didn't wantcon las lagrimitas que tú no querías
I've put affection in a water bathme he puesto el cariño al baño María
and now there's no one to stop me,y ahora ya no hay quien me pare,
and on clear nights my figure dancesy en las noches claras baila mi figura
on a stage made of trash canssubido a un tablao de cubos de basura
among the lights of the bars,entre las luces de los bares,

it must be the bad starha de ser la mala estrella
that kicks if it sees me from afar,la que pegue coces si me ve de lejos,
that tears off my skin,la que arranque mi pellejo,
or maybe the litany of bellso tal vez la letanía de campanas
that toll for the deadque toquen a muerto
when I look at myself in the mirror,cuando me mire al espejo,

but I still have the powerpero todavía tengo el poderío
to set boundaries to this rough seade ponerle lindes a este mar bravío
and to this waning moon,y a esta luna que se mengua,
to heal wounds with just one lick,de lavar heridas con solo un lamido,
to kill illusions without making a sound,de matar quimeras si hacer ni un ruido,
to lose you through my tongue,de perderte por la lengua,

I'm left alone,me estoy quedando solo,
there are no hugs in your arms,no hay abrazos en tus brazos,
you're taking them all away,te los vas llevando todos,
I'm left alone,me estoy quedando solo,
but I keep scraping,mas yo sigo rebañando,
there are still pieces of your love,de tu amor aún quedan trozos,

they were made for me, for me,se hicieron para mí, para mí,
dry mattressesjergones de secano
that hold my hustle,que guardan mi trajín,
that hold doubts like pianos,que guardan dudas como pianos,
they were made for you, for you,se hicieron para ti, para ti,
the mists that vanish,las brumas que se esfuman,
and violin shapesy hechuras de violín
that are bigger than my doubtsque son más grandes que mis dudas
