Abismo
Abel Pintos
Abyss
Take away the smoke of pain,
take away the echo of your voice,
take away the fire and the poison
from the evil your kisses did to me.
I know I have to move on,
but I don't know the way.
I don't know how to forget you,
I search for you and find myself lost.
What a contradiction!
Take if you want my life,
take the remains of my heart.
Take the ungrateful habit, my love,
of dreaming that we both had.
Take if you want the shadow
that the dagger of your goodbye leaves in my blood.
Take everything, I beg you, so I don't die.
Take everything else,
if you take my dignity.
And don't talk to me about the same thing
throw me into the abyss of loneliness.
You know you will find me,
at some point, some place.
And even if I show myself as overcoming it,
inside I will be bleeding
and asking for mercy.
Take if you can my life,
take the remains of my heart.
Take the ungrateful habit, my love,
of dreaming that we both had.
Take if you can the shadow
that the dagger of your goodbye leaves in my blood.
Take everything, I beg you, so I don't die.
It's not your forgetfulness that hurts me, that kills me anymore,
it's the clumsiness of having loved you, ungrateful!
Please take my life,
take the remains of my heart.
Take the damn habit, my love,
of dreaming that we both had.
Please take the shadow
that the dagger of your goodbye leaves in my blood.
Take everything, I beg you,
so I don't die crying for you.
