A Flor De Piel
Mikel Erentxun
On the Surface
Listen to me
the beyond
is closer than you.
Understand me,
I am just a hostage
in love with my slavery.
I am willing
to cling
to a burning nail
to be with you,
and nothing
of what
they tell me
would make me back down.
Listen to me
the beyond
is closer than you.
Understand me,
I know I am very capable
of living a love so real.
I still carry you on the surface
like a tattoo
made of memories,
I still carry you on the surface
without more baggage,
without regrets.
You know you will always find
a passage in my heart
in case you want to fly with me,
in case you decide to fly.
For you it's easy to
kick someone when they're down
and I was the one with everything to lose;
I am reborn from my ashes
and the truth is
I might make the same mistake again.
Listen to me
tell me if you're there
hibernating in some heart.
Ignite me,
a light to guide me
to the outskirts of your love.
I still carry you on the surface...
