Cerca De Las Vías

There are days that it seems
that the sun will never go out,
and others are sadder
than a farewell at the station.

It's the same as our life
that when everything is going well...
one day you turn a corner
and you twist too.

That spider web
hanging in my room
I don't remove it, it does nothing,
it just occupies its corner.

I have grown up near the tracks
and that's why I know,
that sadness and joy,
travel on the same train.
Do you want to see the world?
Look, it's beneath your feet.

With the passing of the years
nothing is as I dreamed.
If you don't close your eyes well,
many things are not seen.

I'm not afraid of the devil
Don't you see I can't burn?
There is no more fire in hell
than there is inside my skin.

Everything bad and good
can fit inside a paper.
Do you want to see the world?
Look, it's beneath your feet.
