Los Términos de Mi Rendición
Enrique Bunbury
The Terms of My Surrender
Now that one exploits oneself
And believes they are fulfilling
That strangers treat you like a friend
Once a colossus, now a vampire
And I write
With the disorder
Of urgency
I know the breaking of a wave
Cannot explain the entire sea
And I have given up too much
In recent years
Making
A total effort
For a modest result
I know what is normal for the spider
Is fucking chaos for a fly
And that it's hard to defeat
Someone who doesn't give up
Today I write
With the disorder
Of urgency
I know the breaking of a wave
Cannot explain the entire sea
And I have given up too much
In recent years
Making
A total effort
For a modest result
Without deviating from the norm
Progress cannot move forward
But no pleasure
Seems to last long enough
If I stay here
Lying in the park
I get the impression
That I'm not missing anything anymore
