Canción de la Esperanza

Imagining a dignified death in you and you splattered the wall
We were an ear, a heartbeat, a heart and while you splattered the wall
We waited with fear for the break, you know why
So many people didn't sleep in their homes, you know why

We always suspected that life wasn't yours, you, the old ghostly story
You were the habit, the gun, and the altar, a broken mirror in the attic
The impossible and unfortunate nightmare, the glass bell
One day they will tell us that you didn't exist, just a dream in reality
Let hope not cease, cornered with a vote we hardly changed anything
Let hope not cease, cornered hope, the dog died but the rage didn't go away

It was almost easy to rebel against you in a union, on paper
All politics were against you, you were the summary to defeat
Now everything is even more complex, the hard part is to grow
And accept that others decide on your behalf with the vote you give them

I had always dreamed that it would be over once, I had never dreamed of a king
This chess game is very unequal, they have the vote and the power
Let's continue the fight, always alive, in the office, in a workshop
History pushes us, cursing, at a table, in a café

Let hope not cease...
