Estar Vivos
Santiago Cruz
Being Alive
They’ve fooled us so many times and we’ve believed so many times
One more time, what’s the difference
We try to find meaning in the most forgotten corners
What for
That urge to cling to what they say is important
Distracting from what really matters
As if just being here isn’t enough
Being the main witnesses to the forces of nature
As if just waking up and being aware
Of the simple miracle that is just being alive
So much more, just being alive
Battered by existence
Accumulating inconsistencies, each in their own way
In their final moments, they reveal their arrogance
Distracting from what really matters
As if just being here isn’t enough
Being the main witnesses to the forces of nature
As if just waking up and being aware
Of the simple miracle that is being alive
As if just being enough
As if just waking up and being aware
Of the simple miracle that is just being alive
So much more, just being alive
Just being alive and nothing more
