Hoy

Today I woke up losing another revolutionHoy amanecí perdiendo otra revolución
And I did nothing to changeY no hice nada por cambiar
Today I didn't want to see the misery of another hungry boyHoy no quise ver la miseria de otro chico hambriento
While the establishment made another millionMientras el establishment ganaba otro millón

Today I lost because I didn't try to winHoy perdí porque no intenté ganar,
Today I went to sleep without imagining I wouldn't wake upHoy me fui a dormir sin imaginar que no iba a despertar
And I understood that dreaming is no longer usefulY entendí que ya no sirve soñar
Because today looks like yesterday and tomorrow already looks badPor que hoy se ve como ayer y mañana ya se ve mal

Today technological development aimedHoy el desarrollo tecnológico apuntó
Its tests on another citySus testeos sobre otra ciudad
And I could witness the cynicism that guides progressY pude asistir al cinismo que guía al progreso
When I saw bombs falling on televisionCuando vi caer bombas por televisión

Today I lost because I didn't try to winHoy perdí porque no intenté ganar,
Today I went to sleep without imagining I wouldn't wake upHoy me fui a dormir sin imaginar que no iba a despertar
And I understood that dreaming is no longer usefulY entendí que ya no sirve soñar
The exhausted antinomy in denouncingLa antinomia agotada en denunciar

Moving their lips without speakingQue mueve sus labios sin hablar
Demanding changes without knowing how to changeReclamando cambios sin saber cambiar

Today I lost because I didn't try to winHoy perdí porque no intenté ganar,
Today I went to sleep without imagining I wouldn't wake upHoy me fui a dormir sin imaginar que no iba a despertar
And I understood that dreaming is no longer usefulY entendí que ya no sirve soñar
Because today looks like yesterday and tomorrow already looks badPor que hoy se ve como ayer y mañana ya se ve mal
