When We Start to Be Born

When we start to be born
The mind begins to understand
That you are you and you have a life

How little reality is
Better to continue, better to dream
And what matters is not the day
But the sun is there
It's not made of paper, it's real

You have a mouth to speak
And you start to ask
And you get to know the lie

With your legs you will walk
But they start to confine you
And there you stay with your routine

And what are you going to do?
One gets tired of running

You fill your suitcases with love and leave
To find the body of a woman
And you discover that love is more than one night
And together watch the sunrise

Little by little you settle
If it's not love, it's yours anyway
And you give them what they ask for

But if they offer you the end
You will say: I will stay the same
Because it's me, because it's my life
