Lyrics

I heard it, the silent surrender of everything we made

I heard the quiet acceptance of the end of everything we created.

It came in, forgot it, now all we got is

It arrived, was forgotten, and now all that remains are...

Promises they never even kept

Unfulfilled promises they never honored.

Sainthood for the ones who hide their pain

Admiration for those who conceal their pain.


We all live here

We all exist in this place.

Buried in fear

Buried in fear.


Been holding on to a memory so lost, now forever means the same to us

We've clung to a lost memory, where 'forever' now holds the same meaning for us.

A people gone with the lies they swallowed up, time and time again it always does

A community lost due to the repeated consumption of lies; time continues its cycle.


A dream of better waters, a dream of what I was

A vision of a better future, a reflection of what I once was.


Que siga la fiesta yo no quiero mas na

Let the celebration continue, I want nothing more.

Con dos palos me enciendo y ciego yo veo más

With two sticks, I light up and blind myself; in blindness, I see more.


Don't look away now, all is yours tonight

Do not avert your gaze now; everything is yours tonight.

The secret's out, nothing left to hide

The secrets are revealed, nothing remains hidden.


En el velorio

At the wake or funeral.

En el velorio
