Perdón Por La Alegría

Sorry for the Joy

Perdón Por La Alegría

I learned to flyAprendí a volar
And not run awayY no salir huyendo
I’ve come out unscathed from lonelinessHe salido ileso de la soledad
And from intense loveY del amor intenso

I learned that everything takes effortAprendí que todo se hace con esfuerzo
I learned that hate is a weird way to say I love youAprendí que el odio es una forma rara de decir te amo
As time goes byComo pasa el tiempo
It’s been so many years walking this dark pathYa van tanto años de seguir andando este camino a oscuras
Love doesn’t killEl amor no mata
But it doesn’t heal eitherPero tampoco cura

I learned from the windAprendí del viento
That all the leaves belonged to itQue todas las hojas le pertenecían
That eternal loveQue el amor eterno
Was just a lieSolo era mentira
That you die a little more each dayQue uno va muriendo con el día a día

Once I asked for forgivenessAlguna vez pedi perdon
But I was wrongPero me equivoqué
The moon isn’t that bigLa luna no es tan grande
If it’s made of paperSi está hecha de papel

Sorry for the joyPerdón por la Alegría
Sarcastic and violentSarcástica y violenta
From the love we were givenDel amor que se nos dio

I learned to singAprendí a cantar
Even if I’m dyingAsí esté muriendo
I’ve accepted the price of reality and its discontentHe asumido el precio de la realidad y su descontento

I learned that everything takes effortAprendí que todo se hace con esfuerzo
I learned that hate is a weird way to say I love youAprendí que el odio es una forma rara de decir te amo
As time goes byComo pasa el tiempo
It’s been so many years walking this dark pathYa van tanto años de seguir andando este camino a oscuras
Love doesn’t killEl amor no mata
But it doesn’t heal eitherPero tampoco cura

I learned from the windAprendí del viento
That all the leaves belonged to itQue todas las hojas le pertenecían
That eternal loveQue el amor eterno
Was just a lieSolo era mentira
That you die a little more each dayQue uno va muriendo con el día a día

Once I asked for forgivenessAlguna vez pedí perdòn
But I was wrongPero me equivoqué
The moon isn’t that bigLa luna no es tan grande
If it’s made of paperSi está hecha de papel

I also learned about youTambién supe de ti
What was fair and necessaryLo justo y necesario
Love is a mercenary of your voiceEl amor es mercenario de tu voz
Damn it, of your voiceMaldita sea, de tu voz

I learned from the windAprendí del viento
That all the leaves belonged to itQue todas las hojas le pertenecían
That eternal loveQue el amor eterno
