Las Palabras
Enrique Bunbury
The Words
The words will stop flowing
Unintentionally hurting, leaving wounded
They have not wanted to miss the truth
And sincerity is not for you
The words choose the moment
Preferring silence over so much noise
They have decided to be silent
And let others continue on their way
One step first, the other next
Some prefer to stay asleep
And it makes no sense to talk to the wall
If a knock, knock, knock you don't answer
If the words get tangled in a spiral
Floating in the drunkenness of melancholy
They would prefer testimonial reality
To a dirty lie
The words can reach you
With blows of rhyme and kung fu
Backlit and in shadows
You name them and they are yours, no one else's
One step first, the other next
Some prefer to stay asleep
And it makes no sense to talk to the wall
If a knock, knock, knock you don't answer
