For When You Don't Hear It Right
Every time I see you down,
I remind you,
that the world's still movin' around,
we're all breathin' in different beats,
to maintain the rhythm,
the sequence of living,
take that however you'll take it,
straight black,
sugar and cream,
laid back,
focused on the details,
whatever you say,
I know what you mean,
and then I get to your apartment,
you're lying there on the floor,
with the bottle in your hand,
a note you wrote 'cause you were tired,
of thinking the same hackneyed thoughts,
you're done trying to understand,
every time I see you down,
I remind you,
that the world's still movin' around,
we're all breathin' in different beats,
to maintain the rhythm,
the sequence of living,
take that however you'll take it,
straight black,
sugar and cream,
and then I get to your apartment,
you're lying there on the floor,
with the bottle in your hand,
a note you wrote 'cause you were tired,
of thinking the same hackneyed thoughts,
you're done trying to understand.
Para Cuando No Escuchas Bien
Cada vez que te veo abatido,
te recuerdo,
que el mundo sigue girando,
todos respiramos en diferentes ritmos,
para mantener el ritmo,
la secuencia de vivir,
toma eso como quieras,
café negro,
azúcar y crema,
relajado,
centrado en los detalles,
sea lo que sea que digas,
entiendo lo que quieres decir,
y luego llego a tu apartamento,
estás acostado en el suelo,
con la botella en tu mano,
una nota que escribiste porque estabas cansado,
de pensar en los mismos pensamientos trillados,
has dejado de intentar entender,
cada vez que te veo abatido,
te recuerdo,
que el mundo sigue girando,
todos respiramos en diferentes ritmos,
para mantener el ritmo,
la secuencia de vivir,
toma eso como quieras,
café negro,
azúcar y crema,
y luego llego a tu apartamento,
estás acostado en el suelo,
con la botella en tu mano,
una nota que escribiste porque estabas cansado,
de pensar en los mismos pensamientos trillados,
has dejado de intentar entender.
