Forzar Las Cosas

Why, why force things
Think it through
Why force things?

I remember everything we did
All that we lived
And you and I chose
I want to avoid falling into drama
You say "everything will be fine" but it’s not that simple

Yeah, it could be, maybe it’s just one of those bad days
Far from everything, speaking in Spanish and tied to my past
I get why they didn’t care
And faded away, they took refuge
I recorded their faces, ignored their faults
I finished my cigarette, we went home
And then, and then

Give me a truth to believe in
A promise to depend on
A secret to keep the weapons to protect
If it’s worth it

Here it goes again, the brilliant misunderstood genius
Carries diplomas, medals on his back
And in his chest, an empty heart
No one by his side could stand it
Always talking about himself, always complaining
Maybe it was too late to let his guard down
He said "I need you," she didn’t say anything
And then, and then

Give me a truth to believe in
A promise to depend on
Something that can replace, regenerate, rewind
It doesn’t move me
I’ve stopped competing
Since the deadly summers turn against me
And the lilies in the field and all that
I’ll lay down my burdens, all that
It’s easier said

And if you’re right
We’re so afraid of losing control

I’ve stopped competing
Since the deadly summers turn against me
For centuries we’ve been going in circles
I’ll step aside and stay with you
