Translation

Dame... dame tu vida

Give... give me your life

dame y tendrás mi piedad

give, and you'll have my mercy

dame la sed de tus ojos acorazados

give me the thirst of your armored eyes

y dame tu insolencia también.

and give me your insolence as well.


Rara vez ésta vida tiene sentido, amor

Rarely does this life make sense, love

y así ves que hasta mi sombre brilla

and so you see that even my shadow shines

en ésta ciudad.

in this city.


Caen, caen al fin, caen los disfraces

Masks fall, finally, disguises fall

caen desnudándote

fall, revealing you

mientras unos fantasmas, fieles amigos

while some ghosts, faithful friends

ríen de vos y se roban tu fe.

laugh at you and steal your faith.


Vas copiando tu herida sobre un pañuelo rojo

You're tracing your wound on a red handkerchief

y ya sabés que jugando al borrego te van a carnear

and you already know that playing the lamb, they'll butcher you


Risas en el taller del diablo

Laughs in the devil's workshop

trampas para tu soñar

traps for your dreaming

no vas a ser esclava del paraíso

you won't be a slave to paradise

vas a bailar en un rock yugular.

you'll dance in a jugular rock.


Te ves en el pequeño espejo del mundo de hoy

You see yourself in the small mirror of today's world

y no querés que la lima del tiempo muerda otra vez.

and you don't want the file of time to bite again.


Dame... dame tu vida

Give... give me your life

dame y tendrás mi piedad

give, and you'll have my mercy

dame la sed de tus ojos acorazados

give me the thirst of your armored eyes

y dame tu insolencia también.

and give me your insolence as well.
