De Repente Desperté

Today I dreamed that everything is a lie
That neither war nor peace exist
Nor the sick nor the medicines
That flags do not exist
Nor messenger doves

Today I dreamed that everything is a lie
That the unemployed by right do not exist
And that the politician is made of clay
And that there is no disaster
That any tailor cannot fix

And suddenly I woke up
And what a surprise it was
When on the news on channel 3
A man was beating his children with sticks
To get revenge on his ex-wife

Suddenly I woke up
And as if it were a dream
I saw that the world was a paper
Where the powerful scribble
To wash their hands afterwards

Suddenly I woke up
And as always this damn world
As strange as it is absurd
As cruel as it is taciturn
Started to walk backwards

Today I dreamed that everything is a lie
That there was no inequality in the world
And that children do not die of AIDS
And that there are no first
Or last because of foreigners

And suddenly I woke up
And I saw four individuals on TV
Fighting for power
While in the street a enslaved people
Looked for food in the garbage

Suddenly I woke up
And I saw how behind a movement
There was always a reason
That in the name of peace I saw dictators being killed
Who were more than put there by you

Suddenly I woke up
And as always this damn world
As strange as it is absurd
As cruel as it is taciturn
Started to walk backwards

And now I don't know what is the dream
And what is reality
We think we go without an owner
Lack of truth
Lack of truth

And there is no worse than the one who does not want to see
No matter how hard it is to look
It is so difficult for me
To believe in destiny
When everyone dances
If four pull a string
And although this humble ballad
May never serve any purpose
Today I will sleep more peacefully
