Cruz Diablo

He looked at his hands later than sooner
And the cliff where his love fell apart.
He thought about his name, about the woman and the man;
About the weathered skin and a sun that no longer warms
Do you see?, do you see? the flesh loosens at some point
Do you see?, devil's cross, I'll follow later.

He looked at his photos, lit a cigarette
And fell asleep in sinking smoke clouds.
He dreamed about children, his neighborhood, his mother,
About his brothers, his dog, and his father.
Do you see?, do you see? we all lack at some point
Do you see?, devil's cross, devil's cross.

You didn't lose all at once
Nor did your luck turn to rubble with a deadly blow.
I saw you losing slowly, slowly, always slowly
Like the shadows of the sunset that slowly fade away,
That's how I see you, that's how I saw you; that's how they saw you and how they see you:
Losing slowly, always slowly - devil's cross -

A new day offered him calmness,
The bitter mate, a smoke, and the departure.
He counted the money, paid the worker's ticket
And went to work as an old passenger.
Do you see?, do you see? the flesh loosens at some point
Do you see?, do you see? we all lack at some point
Do you see?, but these things are not seen
Do you see?, devil's cross, I'll follow later.
