Egreso

When I wake up I feel the weightDespierto y siento el peso
Of a tomorrow I don’t even wantDe un mañana que ni quiero
The room speaks to me in silenceLa habitación me habla en silencio
Whispering stories I can’t confrontSusurra historias que ni yo tolero
I walk without directionCamino sin certeza
Shadows trailing my hesitationSombras siguiendo mi torpeza
And I try not to stumbleY aunque intento no caer
But every step shows what I can’t faceCada paso me recuerda lo que no quiero ver

How many times can a soul burn¿Cuántas veces puede un alma arder
Without losing what it wants?Sin perder lo poco que quiere tener?
How many times can I hold myself up¿Cuántas veces puedo sostenerme
If my mind just wants me to fade?Si mi mente solo busca desvanecerme?

I'm still here while everything shakeI'm still here while everything shakes
While the fear grows stronger and breaksWhile the fear grows stronger and breaks
I say I'm fine, but it's a lieI say I'm fine but it's a lie
There's a desert burning in my mindThere's a desert burning in my mind
I'm an echo no one can hearI'm an echo no one can hear
A truth biting down on its fearA truth biting down on its fear
Just the remnants trembling inside meJust the remnants trembling inside me
When I don't know if I should move or disappearWhen I don't know if I should move or disappear

The future keeps chasing meEl futuro me persigue
Like a fire that never diesComo un fuego que jamás se extingue
It promises new roads, I knowPromete rutas nuevas lo sé
But they all lead back to where I dont want to goPero todas vuelven al lugar que abandoné
And doubt has become my sentenceY la duda es mi condena
The studies dont concludeLa universidad eterna
A test that never endsUn examen sin final
Asking who I am and I don’t know where I standQue pregunta quién soy y no sé qué contestar

Sometimes I think survivingA veces creo que sobrevivir
Means learning how to break and go onEs aprender a romperse para seguir
That resisting isn’t courageQue no es valentía resistir
But accepting there are days I want to dieSino aceptar que ahí hay días en que quiero morir

I'm still here while everything shakeI'm still here while everything shakes
While the fear grows stronger and breaksWhile the fear grows stronger and breaks
I say I'm fine, but it's a lieI say I'm fine but it's a lie
There's a desert burning in my mindThere's a desert burning in my mind
I'm an echo no one can hearI'm an echo no one can hear
A truth biting down on its fearA truth biting down on its fear
Just the remnants trembling inside meJust the remnants trembling inside me
When I don't know if I should move or disappearWhen I don't know if I should move or disappear

What if this path was never for me?¿Y si este camino no es para mí?
If the ending was never designed?¿Y si el final nunca quiso existir?
I scream not so they hear meGrito no para que me escuchen
I scream to remind myself I’m aliveGrito para recordar que sigo aquí
Because if I stay silent, I sinkPorque si callo me hundo
I dissolve into the deepest groundMe disuelvo en el fondo más profundo
And I don’t want to be my own woundY no quiero ser mi propia herida
In this war already lostEn esta guerra ya perdida

I'm still here while everything shakeI'm still here while everything shakes
While the fear grows stronger and breaksWhile the fear grows stronger and breaks
I say I'm fine, but it's a lieI say I'm fine but it's a lie
There's a desert burning in my mindThere's a desert burning in my mind
I'm an echo no one can hearI'm an echo no one can hear
A truth biting down on its fearA truth biting down on its fear
Just the remnants trembling inside meJust the remnants trembling inside me
When I don't know if I should move or disappearWhen I don't know if I should move or disappear

If I wake up, it’ll be the sameSi despierto será lo mismo
Another step into the edgeOtro paso hacia el abismo
And if the world remains unchangedY si el mundo sigue en lo mismo
I’ll lose myself inside my paceMe perderé en mi propio ritmo
Let it be clear in what remainsQue quede claro en mi despojo
There was no light, only the soakingNo hubo luz, solo el remojo
Of a soul submerged in its own angerDe un alma hundida en su propio enojo
