Por Primera Vez

For the First Time

Por Primera Vez

For the first time I didn't even put my hands inPor primera vez no metí ni las manos
And in self-defense I endured the fallY en defensa propia aguante la caída
I, who was fleeing from a world of deceitYo que estaba huyendo de un mundo de engaños
Came face to face with the worst of life.Vine a dar de lleno con lo peor de la vida.

The first time I held you in my armsLa primera vez que te tuve en mis brazos
You were crying, saying you hadn't sinnedMe decías llorando que no habías pecado
But you already had I don't know how many failuresPero ya tenías no sé cuantos fracasos
And you wanted to erase your past with my love.Y querías borrar con mi amor tu pasado.

Your face was already covered in kisses!Ya tenías el rostro cubierto de besos!
And on your skin the mark that sorrows leaveY en tu piel la huella que dejan las penas
But instead of loving you, they gave you contemptPero en vez de amarte te dieron desprecios
I shouldn't pay!Yo no he de pagar!
I shouldn't pay!Yo no he de pagar!
I don't have to payYo no tengo que pagar
I shouldn't have to pay for others' debts!Yo no debo de pagar por las deudas ajenas!

I could swear I loved you madlyTe podría jurar que te amé con locura
And didn't think you'd end up losing yourselfY que no pensé que llegaras a perderte
But instead of love, you gave me bitternessPero en vez de amores me diste amargura
And as you are, I prefer to lose youY así como eres yo prefiero perderte
The first time I held you in my armsLa primera vez que te tuve en mis brazos
You were crying, saying you hadn't sinnedMe decías llorando que no habías pecado
But you already had I don't know how many failuresPero ya tenías no sé cuantos fracasos
And you wanted to erase your past with my love.Y querías borrar con mi amor tu pasado.

Your face was already covered in kisses!Ya tenías el rostro cubierto de besos!
And on your skin the mark that sorrows leaveY en tu piel la huella que dejan las penas
But instead of loving you, they gave you contemptPero en vez de amarte te dieron desprecios
I shouldn't pay!Yo no he de pagar!
I shouldn't pay!Yo no he de pagar!
I don't have to payYo no tengo que pagar
I shouldn't have to pay for others' debts!Yo no debo de pagar por las deudas ajenas!
