My Reason

Mi Razón

I have lost foreverHe perdido para siempre
What was once the great love of my lifeLo que fuera de mi vida el gran amor
I have lost, because of cowardiceHe perdido por cobarde
What my heart held so dearLo que tanto venero mi corazón

I never meant to hurt herYo no quise hacerle daño
Or lead her down paths of painNi llevarla por caminos de dolor
And today, I walk away like a strangerY hoy me alejo como extraño
Making way for reasonDando paso a la razón

Here I am, among the bottlesAquí estoy entre botellas
Drowning my pain in wineApagando con el vino mi dolor
Celebrating in my own wayCelebrando a mi manera
The defeat of my poor heartLa derrota de mi pobre corazón

And, if by chance, I'm already unconsciousY si acaso ya inconsciente
Overwhelmed by the fumes of alcoholAgobiada por los humos del alcohol
Don't mock me if I shout at herNo se burlen si le grito
If, through my tears, I call out to her, everything has its reasonSi entre lágrimas le llamo, todo tiene su razón

(Can you hear me, you good-for-nothing?)(¿Me estás oyendo, inútil?)

Here I am, among bottlesAquí estoy entre botellas
Drowning my pain in wineApagando con el vino mi dolor
Celebrating in my own wayCelebrando a mi manera
The defeat of my poor heartLa derrota de mi pobre corazón

And, if by chance, I'm already unconsciousY si acaso ya inconsciente
Overwhelmed by the fumes of alcoholAgobiada por los humos del alcohol
Don't mock me if I shout at herNo se burlen si le grito
If, through my tears, I call out to her, everything has its reasonSi entre lágrimas le llamo, todo tiene su razón
