Huesos Pequeños
Ozcar Horna
Little Bones
She
Looks at me with pity and apologizes
Watching me sink in this lagoon
That spills over every time she thinks of him
She
Shares the joy that fades away
When the night rage approaches
From a thin pillow that smells of betrayal
I’m drowning
While I hold you, I’m your ground
Even though I have little bones
I’ll play with your tears
You hide
Under a candy-coated laugh
I’ve heard you cry in silence
For someone who shares my name
She
Finds in her dark circles a helping hand
To ease songs that are more than awkward
By Leonardo or José José
She
Looks for a new day while having breakfast
I search for myself among her kisses that float
Over what opened up when he left
I’m drowning
While I hold you, I’m your ground
Even though I have little bones
I’ll play with your tears
You hide
Under a candy-coated laugh
I’ve heard you cry in silence
For someone who shares my name
She cried
She cried just like today and yesterday
He was packing
He was packing and said
Let me talk
Wake the baby
He needs to know
I won’t be here tomorrow
Take care of your mother
I couldn’t do it
Sorry for being this way
That’s just how I had to be
I’m drowning
