La Voz Dormida

I'm from a place, from a spot
From a time that
They call eternity
And to the wind, my home

Where reality
You can change it
If you know how to ask
And don't take anything for granted

What does pain taste like?
Is love eternal?
Is bitterness a woman?
What are dreams made of?

How much does a goodbye weigh?
Why is peace silent?
Can betrayal sleep?
Ask yourself!

And you'll see that my voice
Lives in you, I am the sleeping voice
Of those whom the holy office
Managed to silence

If you want to follow me
We'll fly over the rainbow
Where sorrows die
And kisses blossom
My voice lives in you

I have seen Rome fall
And Egypt die
And Jesus of Nazareth
Breathe his last without knowing

That in his name a sect of power
Was going to be born
Traffickers of illusion
Merchants of broken souls

Why is faith deaf?
And the believer blind?
Does a prayer know how to kiss?
How much does celibacy cost?

Is the altar for sale?
Or do you rent it out?
For the use of a dictator?
Hitler once fornicated on one

And you'll see that my voice
Lives in you, I am the sleeping voice
Of those whom the holy office
Managed to silence

If you want to follow me
We'll fly over the rainbow
Where sorrows die
And kisses blossom
My voice lives in you

I descended to your hell
And asked your fears
Where do failures live?
And if they accept a bribe
I ascended to their heaven
Their God did not receive me
To his right is Franco
And between them there's a gap
For Pinochet

And you'll see that I am the sleeping voice
Follow me, my voice lives in you

And you'll see that my voice
Lives in you, I am the sleeping voice
Of those whom the holy office
Managed to silence

If you want to follow me
We'll fly over the rainbow
Where sorrows die
And kisses blossom
My voice lives in you

I have burned in a thousand fires
I was violated in Peru
I have lived through the Holocaust
The Inquisition, apartheid
Dictatorships, power, pedophilia
The devil's mark is the cross
