Perdón Por La Alegría

I learned to fly
And not run away
I’ve come out unscathed from loneliness
And from intense love

I learned that everything takes effort
I learned that hate is a weird way to say I love you
As time goes by
It’s been so many years walking this dark path
Love doesn’t kill
But it doesn’t heal either

I learned from the wind
That all the leaves belonged to it
That eternal love
Was just a lie
That you die a little more each day

Once I asked for forgiveness
But I was wrong
The moon isn’t that big
If it’s made of paper

Sorry for the joy
Sarcastic and violent
From the love we were given

I learned to sing
Even if I’m dying
I’ve accepted the price of reality and its discontent

I learned that everything takes effort
I learned that hate is a weird way to say I love you
As time goes by
It’s been so many years walking this dark path
Love doesn’t kill
But it doesn’t heal either

I learned from the wind
That all the leaves belonged to it
That eternal love
Was just a lie
That you die a little more each day

Once I asked for forgiveness
But I was wrong
The moon isn’t that big
If it’s made of paper

Sorry for the joy
Sarcastic and violent
From the love we were given

I also learned about you
What was fair and necessary
Love is a mercenary of your voice
Damn it, of your voice

I learned from the wind
That all the leaves belonged to it
That eternal love
Was just a lie
That you die a little more each day

Once I asked for forgiveness
But I was wrong
The moon isn’t that big
If it’s made of paper

Sorry for the joy
Sarcastic and violent
From the love we were given
