Solitario Solo

The sun shortchanges the hours of the day
The night fills all my edges
So I keep rolling like a wounded bird
I get up, fall, and stand right back up
So I keep rolling like a wounded bird
The wind tangles me in its cold strings

The wind drags me with a wicked force
If it wants to keep my body up high
My bones fill with proud flames
The wind dresses me, brings me down right away
My bones fill with proud flames
The wind covers me with its long shirt

The light from the mountains blinds me
Just like the hand of a stubborn wet nurse
The clouds deliver their tears from above
With the light and the wind, they stretch my corner
The clouds deliver their tears from above
With the light and the wind, I stand right back up

Lonely alone like a shy moon
To spit out my sorrows, I’m out of saliva
The dry wind that always keeps watch
To bury me in its black breeze
The dry wind that always keeps watch
To bury me in cold ashes
