Todo Mal
Ivan Herzog
All Bad
I don't understand the dance
That serves as your main language
Your excess of air
When you see that something could go wrong
The four rules that point out my crimes
Talking about love and dressing it as punishment for your own good
I don't understand the art
Of your bronze skin halfway caressing
Your separate point
Colliding with my questioning
The absurd crying that bursts the argument
That reason that tells you I'm lying and it's not true
And this won't be one of those topics
So exaggerated that they push you away
I swear I sing because telling it is not my thing
What do you want me to say
I've gotten used to following you
Unpacking my life
And serving it to you in a crystal glass
All bad, all bad
But I'm not complaining
What do you want me to say
I'm not made of cement or metal
This soul has no beams
And I've seen you with a face of endurance
You talk to me about Mars
About the moons of Saturn and Pluto
About a separate world
That maybe perhaps would be for both of us
But I'm not that adventurous astronaut
I love my homeland and I call being single my earth, that's how I am
I'm the brave one in the face of the easy
Opportunist on occasion
The one who promises the sky and sea
Because he never had a choice
Let them throw stones to kill the jailer
I'll trade my freedom for your neck in my noose
What do you want me to say
You like having me here behind you
Unpacking my life
And taking it easy and non-stop
All bad
But that's how I choose it
What do you want me to say
You're not made of cement or metal either
This soul has no beams
And you've grown tired of enduring
And I've let myself fall dead weight
