Tengo Miedo
Tomi Salómon
I'm Scared
Abstract, out of context
You're criticized for a text message
You got an honest job
A frustrated person complains and doesn't know about this
Life doesn't make sense
But surely you already knew that
What will possession be good for?
If no one cares if it's always ambiguous
And there they go, many more
They're scared and don't want to admit it
Because the truth is scary
And not knowing where to find it is even scarier
And there they go, many more
They're scared and don't want to admit it
Because the truth is scary
And not knowing where to find it is even scarier
(Jazz)
But it's a lie, everything out of context
We have plenty of photos and lack a manifesto
Surely there are several who believe my supposed truths
And they don't see clearly, I'm another broken one
Indigestible, without replacement, sometimes I also detest myself
The important things are postponed, I'll show you the little photo!
It's funny the sinister of putting so many excuses
To throw something of ours
And there I go, with the others
Having a fear and no longer pretending
Because the truth is scary
And not knowing where to find it is even scarier
And there we go, backwards
We're scared and whoever denies it will come
Because the truth is scary
But thinking that it no longer exists is even scarier
I was scared since I was a child of loud noises, of sleeping alone
I'm more scared every day of living by inertia and protocol
I'm scared of where the world is heading, of environmental collapse
(To the deepest power) Of not remembering my grandmother's voice
And I'm so scared that dying will hurt me
Not knowing how to take advantage of attitudes
And losing my life for crowds to applaud me
I'm terrified of others and their cynicism
But I'm much more scared of what I think of myself
And I'm scared and so are you
And I'm scared and so are you
And I'm scared and so are you
And I'm scared
And I'm scared
And I'm scared
And you too
