Con las ganas [English translation]

I remember on arriving that you didn't even look at me

I was only one more of hundreds

Nevertheless, they were yours,

the first ticketholders

Why didn't I realize

that there are forbidden elevators,

that there are shared sins,

and that you were so close

I disguise myself as you.

You disguise yourself as me.

And we play at being humans

in this gray room.

I try to help you with your problems1

You glide around me

and we play at being two cats

that don't want to go to sleep.

My anchors didn't stop your instincts,

nor yours my moans,

I let myself loosen up

and tingle with excitement.2

I don't want you to stop squeezing me

without me telling you anything

That your fingertips be dried tears

attached to my vertexes 3

I disguise myself as you.

You disguise yourself as me.

And we play at being humans

in this gray room

I try to help you with your problems.

You glide around me

and we play at being two cats

that don't want to go to sleep.

I don't know what just happened

I only felt darts inside.

Our uncomfortable position

dilated in space

The pain sinks into my side

the corners become blurry

I am thirsty and I'm swallowing,

I don't want to not be by your side

I disguise myself as you.

You disguise yourself as me.

And we play at being humans

in this gray room.

I try to help you with your problems.

You glide around me

and we play at being two cats

that don't want to go to sleep.

I will die of desire to tell you

that I will miss you...

And the words leave me,

my guts are empty

I pretend that I don't know, and that you haven't found out

I pretend that I don't like being with you...

And as I get lost inside myself

I remember you effortlessly

I will die of desire to tell you

that I will miss you...
