La Llama

2: The Flame

Sometimes I feel like I gulp life in one sip
I don't need excuses to leave everything behind
Lately, the passing of the years has weighed on me
And if I don't deceive anyone, I will always be the same as I am

I have seen my life pass by like someone going to the movies
I am not the one who lives it but someone else writes it
Although I have never been a believer in what they call destiny
I trace my own path, I dig my own grave

It's the flame that burns inside and doesn't leave me in peace
That takes away everything I want, relentlessly burning
And I can't stop thinking about the original question
Why is there something instead of nothing, why are we living

You have given me so much
I never ask for too much
Time passes slowly
When you're not around

And why do we resist
What we feel
If we sink so deep
When we're together
