The Animal

Living is not very complicated
if you can be reborn and change several things,
the frivolities and so much stupidity.
You lie, you lie well.
When I have you next to me, you prove me right
and I would like to tell you that I prefer to be alone,
and the beast that I carry inside
has never let me be happy.
It steals everything from me, even the coffee.
It turns me into a slave of my passions,
never giving up, and never waiting.
And the beast that I carry inside loves you.
Inside me sparks of fire
and the water that will extinguish it.
If you want to see how it burns, spread it in the air
or leave it on the ground.
And the beast that I carry inside
has never let me be happy.
It steals everything from me, even the coffee.
It turns me into a slave of my passions,
never giving up, and never waiting.
And the beast that I carry inside loves you.
