La Vida Tranquila

It's six-thirty, dawn breaks in the city
June has always been rough on me
This allergy is killing me, won't let me chill
Breakfast in silence

The truth is the bar's always packed
And honestly, I know everyone here
But I'd rather skim the news
The opinions, the sports
I don't read much, to be honest
Sometimes I'm more interested in the gossip
Rodrigo and the guy from the fruit stand
They seem like good folks
It's almost seven, it's getting late, I grab my bike
Here we go

Who would have thought
That such a quiet life
Would end up choking me
That finally having silence
Wouldn't let me rest
That the happiest moments
I wouldn't get to enjoy
Who would have guessed it
Who would have believed it

'Cause I think way too much
About what's strict and necessary
And I always believe that in the end
An extraordinary discovery
Epic and unmatched
Will ease my suffering
Finally, in a radical way
And it's just so absurd
How I've lost my way already

I should try harder
'Cause my patience is running thin
And I'm not getting any younger

And the truth is I don't know what's gonna happen
Uncertainty always buries the truth
I'm worried about so many things and my head's pounding
I can't focus

I'm worried about the future, work, the decline
What awaits the girls, my health, the end of the world
I'm worried about pain, insomnia, time passing
I'm scared of death and sometimes people
Well, depending on the people
It's already dark, I grab my bike
Here we go

Who would have thought
That such a quiet life
Would end up choking me
That finally having silence
Wouldn't let me rest
That the happiest moments
I wouldn't get to enjoy
Who would have guessed it
Who would have believed it

'Cause I think way too much
About what's strict and necessary
And I always believe that in the end
An extraordinary discovery
Epic and unmatched
Will ease my suffering
Finally, in a radical way
And it's just so absurd
How I've lost my way already

Stop getting carried away
You never did much to stop imagining
That life would bring you the worst and the truth
Is that right now you can't let your guard down

I can't take it anymore
(Don't exaggerate)
Fear paralyzes me and won't let me react
(Same old story)
I need you to love me and help me forget
That I have no choice but to face reality

I can't take it anymore
You only think of yourself
I need to rest
Always true to the drama
Tell me when it'll pass
What do you think? We all suffer
This life in solitude

You only think of yourself
Always true to the drama
