Don Quijote

I thought it was the end, but here I am
Madness sang to me in the night

I already had the hours counted
But I lost count of the bullets
Before starting, everything ends
If you try to put out the fire with past water

Give me the shovel, I'll dig the hole
Look me in the face as I throw myself into the stream
I don't believe anything, stop the nonsense
And no matter what I do, it's just me!

Me-against-me, with myself against myself
I-am-so, I punish myself if I exist
I-was-not-born, lost in this abyss
C-G-A, I'm still here for a record

Do-you-want-to? That they don't listen to your pleas
God looks at you with his immaculate tunic
Is-my-song playing in that clinic?
Re-mi-fa-done, I'm alive
For the music!

I thought it was the end, but here I am
I was about to forget who I am
Madness sang to me in the night
I'm a giant and you're my Don Quixote

I thought it was the end but here I am
And even though I don't really know where I'm going
I'm not afraid anymore of the voices coming
I'll tell them that I am Don Quixote

My mouth is dry, spit on me
Today I'll be your enchanted poet
Here's everything, there's nothing to worry about
Throwing everything in the toilet, even the teacup

I'm out of breath, words are too many
Cut off my wings, I've learned to fly without them
Grant me this dance, or are you not so fierce anymore?
Because you see that this damn tragicomedy is ending

And now I understand how you could manipulate me at your will
But I'm sorry, I won't let you drive me crazy
I wasted my time thinking about lost time and that's enough!
Sometimes fear can overpower damn hope

But it's very hard to have your executioner inside you
Feeling naked and so mute with no one to turn to
Seeing that your future is dark and not knowing where the end is
I know I'm raw but you're not a reason to die, no!

I thought it was the end, but here I am
I was about to forget who I am
Madness sang to me in the night
I'm a giant and you're my Don Quixote

I thought it was the end but here I am
And even though I don't really know where I'm going
I'm not afraid anymore of the voices coming
I'll tell them that I am Don Quixote

As they say in movies, I have good news and bad news
Which one do you want to know first, the bad one?
That I will never be able to put into words the suffering you have caused me
And the good one?
That if by now you haven't managed to take my life
What you have achieved is making me much stronger
