Maldita Sustancia

Today I want to tell you a real storyHoy les quiero contar una historia real
It's about a friend who is not wellHabla de un amigo que se encuentra mal
He appeared out of nowhereApareció de la nada
That strange illnessEsa extraña enfermedad
His body failingSu cuerpo que le falla

And his pale faceY su cara pálida está
They offered it to him in the early hoursLe ofrecieron de madrugada
And he can't let it goY no la puede dejar
That damned substanceEsa maldita sustancia
That makes so many flyQue a tantos hace volar

He was falling little by littleFue cayendo poco a poco
And his family is sadY su familia triste esta
Because he doesn't respond anymorePorque él ya no responde
He just wants to flyEl solo quiere volar

Stop flying, you're killing yourselfDeja de volar que te estás matando
Stop dreaming, you won't get anywhereDeja de soñar a ningún lado llegarás
Stop flying, you're killing yourselfDeja de volar que te estás matando
Stop dreaming, you won't get anywhereDeja de soñar a ningún lado llegarás
Stop flying, you're killing yourselfDeja de volar que te estás matando

And now you're lying on a curbY ahora en un cordón te encontrás tirado
Life has its waysQué cosas tiene la vida
You are my friendTú eres mi amigo
My loyal friendMi amigo vas fiel
And I'm powerlessY soy un impotente
I can't find a solutionQue no encuentra solución

Now get up and walk once moreAhora ponte de piel y camina una vez más
Your children can't understand the reasonTus hijos no se explican el motivo
For this painDe este dolor
They offered it to him in the early hoursLe ofrecieron de madrugada

And he can't let it goY no la puede dejar
That damned substanceEsa maldita sustancia
That makes so many flyQue a tantos hace volar
He was falling little by little and his family is sadFue cayendo poco a poco y su familia triste está
Because he doesn't respond anymorePorque él ya no responde
He just wants to flyEl Solo quiere volar
Stop flying, you're killing yourselfDeja de volar que te estás matando
