The Lifting

El Levantamiento

The Lifting

Enraizado, 5 a.mGrounded, 5 a.m
La luz nocturna reconfortaThe nitelite is comforting
Pero la gravedad te retieneBut gravity is holding you

Una vez que te has acomodado para dormirOnce settled into sleep
Has visto, en repeticiónYou have watched, on repeat
La historia de tu vidaThe story of your life
A lo largo del techoAcross the ceiling
Y en retrospectivaAnd in review

Has dicho que el aire cantabaYou've said the air was singing
Te llama, no lo creesIt's calling you, you don't believe
Estas cosas que nunca has vistoThese things you've never seen

'Buenos días, ¿cómo estás?"Good morning, and how are you?
El clima está bien, el cielo está azulThe weather's fine, the sky is blue
Es perfecto para nuestro seminario'It's perfect for our seminar"

'Ahora cierra los ojos"Now close your eyes
Y comienza a respirarAnd start to breathe
Permite que el ruido se desvanezcaAllow the noise to recede
...Permítete desvanecerte y volar lejos'...Allow yourself to drift and fly away"
Pero tú solo te quedasBut you just stay

Has dicho que el aire cantabaYou've said the air was singing
Te llama, no lo creesIt's calling you, you don't believe
Estas cosas que nunca has visto, nunca soñadoThese things you've never seen, never dreamed.

¿Escuchaste esas voces llamando?Did you hear these voices calling

Encerrado en la sala de conferenciasLocked into the conference room
'Solo somos lo que nuestras mentes asumen...'"We're only what our minds assume..."
Y la racionalidad te abandonaAnd rationale is leaving you

Esta idea, estos sistemas de creenciasThis conceit, these systems of belief
Tu consejero está de acuerdoYour counselor agrees
'Siempre has marcado estos límites, ahora eres libre...'"You've always marked these boundaries, now you're free..."
Y con alivioAnd with relief

Has dicho que el aire cantabaYou've said the air was singing
Te llama, no lo creesIt's calling you, you don't believe
Estas cosas que nunca has visto, nunca escuchado, nunca soñadoThese things you've never seen, never heard, never dreamed

Has dicho que el aire cantabaYou've said the air was singing
Te llama, no lo creesIt's calling you, you don't believe
Estas cosas que nunca has vistoThese things you've never seen

Nunca, nunca, nuncaNever, never, never

Una vez tuviste un sueñoOnce you had a dream
De océanos y ciudades hundidasOf oceans, and sunken cities
Recuerdos de cosas que nunca has conocidoMemories of things you've never known
Y que nunca has conocido.And you have never known.
