House of love
She was full of lies and boredom
It came as no surprise that she would cheat
Her nails were long and sharp
But she didn't play the harp
She wasn't an angel I told her
But she wasn't able to understand my words
Rich pickings in reverse
I wasn't shakespeare
It's simple
Did she expect me
To kiss her feet
A very acidic tongue
Waggled in her head
Life was lots of fun
At times I had to smile
In front of everyone
We seemed the best of friends
Life had just begun
When on the roof a tile began to slip
The house of love caved in and that was it
She was full of tears by nature
It came to me so clear that she would creep
Her eyes were stale and spun
Like marbles in the sun
She wasn't a princess I told her
And so I witnessed the slaying of my life
That lasted half the night
I wasn't jesus
Believe me
Our love was seedless
And incomplete
Casa del amor
Ella estaba llena de mentiras y aburrimiento
No fue sorpresa que ella engañara
Sus uñas eran largas y afiladas
Pero no tocaba el arpa
No era un ángel, se lo dije
Pero no pudo entender mis palabras
Una cosecha rica al revés
No era Shakespeare
Es simple
¿Acaso esperaba ella
Que le besara los pies?
Una lengua muy ácida
Se movía en su cabeza
La vida era muy divertida
A veces tenía que sonreír
Frente a todos
Parecíamos los mejores amigos
La vida apenas comenzaba
Cuando en el techo una teja empezó a resbalar
La casa del amor se derrumbó y eso fue todo
Ella estaba llena de lágrimas por naturaleza
Me quedó claro que ella se arrastraría
Sus ojos estaban apagados y perdidos
Como canicas en el sol
No era una princesa, se lo dije
Y así presencié el asesinato de mi vida
Que duró media noche
No era Jesús
Créeme
Nuestro amor era estéril
E incompleto
