Al lado del camino

Elan Elan

By the Side of the Road

I like being by the side of the road
Smoking the smoke while everything passes
I like to open my eyes and be alive
Having to deal with the hangover
Then sailing becomes necessary
On ships that crash into nothingness
Living tormented by meaning
I think this, yeah, is the heaviest part
In times when no one listens to anyone
In times when everyone’s against everyone
In selfish and petty times
In times when we’re always alone
We’ll have to declare ourselves incompetent
In all market subjects
We’ll have to declare ourselves innocent
Or we’ll have to be vile and soulless
I no longer belong to any isthmus
I consider myself alive and buried
I put the songs on your record
Time put me somewhere else
I’ll have to do what’s right and what’s not
I’ll have to do good and do harm
Don’t forget that forgiveness is divine
And to err is sometimes human
It’s never good to make enemies
Who aren’t up to the conflict
Who think they’re waging a war
And piss themselves like children
Who roam around sinister ministries
Making a parody of the artist
That everything that shines in this world
Only gives them dandruff and envy
I was a sad and enchanted girl
Of Fito, Yanis, and wonders
Books, songs, and pianos
Movies, betrayals, enigmas
My parents, beer, pills, mysteries, bad whiskey
Oils, love, stages
Hunger, cold, crime, money, and my aunts
Made me this tangled woman
If you ever cross me on the street
Gift me your kiss and don’t be sad
If you see I’m thinking of something else
It’s nothing bad, just a breeze passed
The breeze of death in love
That hovers like a killer angel
But don’t be scared, it always passes
It’s just the intuition of my destiny
I like being by the side of the road
Smoking the smoke while everything passes
I like coming back from oblivion
To remember in dreams my home
Of the girl who played ball
Of 313796
No one promised us a rose garden
We talk about the danger of being alive
I didn’t come to entertain your family
While the world falls apart
I like being by the side of the road
I like feeling you by my side
I like being by the side of the road
To have you sleep every night in my arms
By the side of the road
By the side of the road
By the side of the road
It’s more entertaining and cheaper
By the side of the road
By the side of the road
