Tras La Corteza (feat. Gema)

Beyond the bark
Beyond the bark

I saw you leaving and I couldn't do anything
Today I feel your kisses in verses that pierce like swords
Fuck fairy tales if they end up leaving a scar
There's no happy ending here, in case you still doubted
Where were you when I needed you? I don't know
The flame goes out, the light already shipwrecks from your being
And I was dying day after day, unwillingly
I tried and tempted fate
Death, I know I can't defeat you
I saw it rain and I stayed still, completely absent
Empty and incomplete, why was it so sudden?
I hear the silence among the people and I'm farther than Neptune
Although there's a path and it's forward, as always
You were my compass, for you I lost my way
I wandered aimlessly, with fear and without a passport
My support collapsed and I was drunk with sadness
Although what's behind my bark, I don't think you care

I couldn't control it, no one helped me escape
Where do I go to find myself?
I hear the echo inside me
They are memories of your goodbye
Where do I go to find you?

There were days I thought about taking pills to forget
I'm my own worst enemy and the worst part is that I know it
I still wonder why, pain, I carry you with me
If I learned to live with you, but I didn't overcome you
You left me with an expressionless face, missing screws
Now everything spins me around, like a carousel
Depressed, alone, and too much mine, but I trusted
I was a vulnerable child to the cold, and yes, I was wrong
And from this dungeon I'm going to tell you a secret
No one fixed my pieces, broken, I felt like an object
And although I write through sobs, I always respected you
Alone at the bottom of this well, I'll get out of here, I promise you
They think they have the right, without deeds they judge like a judge
Yesterday I hit the ceiling and today it's the other way around
There's no victory or defeat in my chess game
I just know that this bark protects me a little less each time

I couldn't control it, no one helped me escape
Where do I go to find myself?
I hear the echo inside me
They are memories of your goodbye
Where do I go to find you?

Music heals me, you poison me like a drug
She sings me a lullaby, you suffocate me with the pillow
One gives me wings, the other ties the noose
You kill me when you cut me down and my bark is the one crying
I saw you leave, I split in two and this song is my therapy
No! You can't convince me with your words anymore
Even though I'm a tough guy, I bleed sap
What's behind this bark? Pain, disappointment, and anger
