Defensas Bajas
Ella Es Tan Cargosa
Low Defenses
after so much walking
having achieved a master's degree in loneliness
returning to take classes
nights 1, 2, and 3 at twice the age
this time
got the clearance from your skin
from afar I look good
like a used car, bodywork and paint job ok
if you look at me closer
I'm walking crooked, from that brutal crash
thank goodness today I can tell you
death tends to take souls with low defenses
it was quite a triumph not to fall into the hands of this medicated and damn cruel world
who said that once you hit rock bottom you won't fall again?
you can stay there
buried deep, no one will lift you up
thank goodness today I can tell you
death tends to take souls with low defenses
it was quite a triumph not to fall into the hands of this medicated and damn cruel world
I'm alive, lucky to be breathing
thank goodness today I can sing it to you...
