Aprendiendo a Vivir

That child I wasEse niño que fui yo
Who looks so much like youQue se parece tanto a ti
The one who wanted to be olderEl que quería ser mayor
To escape, to choosePara escapar, para elegir
Southern colt, drunk with lightPotro del sur, ebrio de luz
Apprentice playerAprendiz de jugador
The world was nothingEl mundo no era más
But an impossible rock and rollQue un imposible rock and roll
Twelve o'clock mass, barracks courtyardMisa de doce, patio de un cuartel
Black sheep, rich kidsOvejas negras, niños bien
Today everything was decidedHoy todo estaba decidido
Regulation gave no actionRegularon nada daba acción
To kids like meA los chavales como yo
That young man I amEse joven que soy yo
Who looks so much like youQue se parece tanto a ti
Still keeps insideAun conserva en su interior
Something of that child I wasAlgo del niño aquel que fui
That guy heart, will be strippedEse tipo corazón, lo va a deshojar
When smoking the peace pipeAl fumar la pipa de la paz
Just like youAl igual que tu
If I stay afloat it's becauseSi me mantengo a flote a sido porque
I've never stopped swimmingNunca he dejado de nadar
Learning to liveAprendiendo a vivir
Learned to know how to say noAprendido a saber decir que no
Learning to sufferAprendiendo a sufrir
The saliva of incomprehensionLa saliva de la incomprensión
Learning to liveAprendiendo a vivir
In this fierce centuryEn este siglo feroz
Learning to keep goingAprendiendo a seguir
Against all odds being myselfContra viento y marea siendo yo
That guy heartEse tipo corazón
Learning to liveAprendiendo a vivir
To catch the bus on the goA coger en marcha el autobús
Learning to readAprendiendo a leer
In the eyes of the crowdEn los ojos de la multitud
Learning to liveAprendiendo a vivir
Loving against the clockAmando contrarreloj
Learning to keep goingAprendiendo a seguir
To the beat of imaginationEl compás de la imaginación
Learning to liveAprendiendo a vivir
