Tres Tristes Tigres

Sadness is always
Like a sponge
It absorbs the water of life
Until it dies
Feeling desire
And strangling it at the same time
Is to fill the sea with stones
And try to cross it
When you see that you can't bear
The emptiness of loneliness
If strength only lies in your saliva
Learn to act

When you feel the need
It's not good to just give of yourself
The kind part and 'everything is fine'
Learn to cry
Learn to cry
The marks that life leaves
Are seen on the face
The traces that love leaves
Are read in the heart
The marks that life leaves
Are seen on the face
The traces that love leaves
Are read in the heart
Learn to see and to read
