Corranse que no puedo ver
Move aside, I can't see
El sueño como me espera
How the dream awaits me
Detrás de un muro de contención
Behind a retaining wall
Con la sonrisa de alma muerta
With the smile of a dead soul
Como una fiera sangrando estoy
Like a beast, I'm bleeding
En una selva de mentes viejas
In a jungle of old minds
Habrá también que saber soñar
One must also know how to dream
Sobre una almohada de piedra
On a pillow of stone
Ahora que lejos quiero llegar
Now how far I want to reach
Nunca nada pudo estar tan cerca
Nothing could ever be so close
A cielo abierto quiso mostrar la noche su pensamiento
Under the open sky, the night wanted to show its thoughts
Why en los reflejos que más allá quisieran ver que despierto
And in the reflections that beyond would want to see me awake
Why en el dolor por existirse habrá de romper el tiempo
And in the pain for existing, time will have to break
Muestra el mundo su condición
The world shows its condition
Why yo siempre saltando el cerco
And I always jumping the fence
Corranse que no puedo ver
Move aside, I can't see
El sueño como lo espero
How I await the dream
Ahora que lejos quiero llegar
Now how far I want to reach
Nunca nada pudo estar tan cerca
Nothing could ever be so close
A cielo abierto quiso mostrar la noche su pensamiento
Under the open sky, the night wanted to show its thoughts
Why en los reflejos que más allá quisieran ver que despierto
And in the reflections that beyond would want to see me awake
Why en el dolor por existirse habrá de romper el tiempo
And in the pain for existing, time will have to break
Corranse que no puedo ver
Move aside, I can't see
El sueño como me espera
How the dream awaits me
Detrás de un muro de contención
Behind a retaining wall
Con la sonrisa de alma muerta
With the smile of a dead soul
Como una fiera sangrando estoy
Like a beast, I'm bleeding
En una selva de mentes viejas
In a jungle of old minds
Habrá también que saber soñar
One must also know how to dream
Sobre una almohada de piedra
On a pillow of stone
