lyrics

Anoche – soñé contigo
Me dijiste – “no te me acerques”
Ahora amaneces muerto
Pájaro muerto
Ya tarde y repleto de hormigas
Y así caldo – me lo repites
“no te me acerques”
“¡no te me acerques!”
y ya tras tu plumaje, se te ven tus huesos
Pájaro inmóvil
Pájaro desalado
tras mi ventana veo bailarinas
y quiero que seas como ellas
quiero que no te estrelles como ellas tampoco lo hacen
pajaro muerto
Me desplomo me desplomo, me desplomo – hayyyyyy – caigo
muerto
en poco tiempo, las hormigas me desalan.
Aqui quieto y mudo, sueño contigo
listo ya para partir
de este mundo absurdo

In my dreams you were last night
and there you asked me – to not get near you
now I awaken to find you dead
you dead bird, you dead bird
here you lay covered in ants
yet still speaking – you ask me again
to not get near you
do not get near me
through your thinning plumage, your bones appear
you still bird
you wingless bird
out of my window, I see ballerinas
and I wish we were like them – I wish we had their grace
to avoid such death
you dead bird
you fallen bird
