Controlas mi destino [English translation]

When I think that this matter

can be solved,

you approach me and screw it up again

and fear made me much stronger than you

but you're going to defeat me just like that

but now I realize

that my pulse races and I tremble

My feelings are atrophying

My heartbeats stop

I'm not putting up with you controlling my destiny.

Have a bit of compassion for me

You don't see that I'm on the point of giving up

I am motionless from head to toe

and I sincerely don't know what to do.

Have a bit of compassion for me

You don't see that I'm on the point of giving up

I am motionless from head to toe

and I sincerely don't know what to do.

And now it tells me inside

that I've already forgotten fear

that the love in me is burning like fire

and the fear that burns me

turns and invades my land

that things may not work the way I want

but this emotion is stronger

than my thoughts

My feelings are atrophying

My heartbeats stop

I'm not putting up with you controlling my destiny.

Have a bit of compassion for me
