Comunismo

I arrived home and had the impressionhe llegado a la casa y he tenido la impresión
That it took a century to get here,de que tardo un siglo en llegar,
Took a year to climb up,de que tardo un año en subir,
Took an hour to walk inde que tardo una hora en entrar
And a second to see you and laugh.y un segundo en verte y reir.
I always have this rush, I don't knowSiempre tengo esa prisa no sé
If it's because I want to tell yousi será que te quiero contar
How the day's skin is like a bookcomo libro el pellejo del día
Absorbing water from the salt.absorviendole el agua a la sal.
I think the height of lifecreo que el colmo de la vida
Is to tell what happens to us,es contar lo que nos pasa,
To make a flowery fable of our tragedy.Hacer la fábula florida de nuestra tragedia.
Some don't risk men to go to the moonunos no arriesgan a los hombre para ir a la luna
And Palestinians are murdered in batches of thousands,y se asesinan palestinos por tandas de miles,
I don't know what to say anymore...yo ya no se que decir es...
The height of lifeel colmo de la vida
Is to tell what happens to us,es contar lo que nos pasa,
While old mistakesmientras los viejos errores
Demand silence.reclaman silencio.
And I'm just a man passing byy yo soy sólo un hombre que pasa
A man selling his neck on the streetsun hombre que vende su cuello en las calles
Like everyone here.cual todos aquí.
Every year I put on clean clothestodos los años me pongo ropa limpia
And go to you.y salgo a ti.
As if you wash away my liescomo si tu me lavaras las mentiras
And go to you.y salgo a ti.
As if you wash away my bloodcomo si tu me lavaras la sangre
And go to you.y salgo a ti
Every year I arrive hometodos los años yo llego a mi casa
And go to you.y salgo a ti
As if you were communismcomo si tu fueras el comunismo
And go to you...y salgo a ti...
As if you were communismcomo si tu fueras el comunismo
And go to you...y salgo a ti...
