[English]

I get out of bed

I got up without any desire

I didn't sleep well tonight

And I looked at myself in the mirror

And my reflection wasn't there

I must have disappeared

I feel like something is missing today to be

Something is missing today to feel

And as if I were losing weight

Aware of my volatility

I've started to fade away

And now I just wait for your return

I haven't eaten today, who knows about tomorrow

I know I'm thinner, I've lost the desire

I need you to come, come and hold me

I need you to come, the air is carrying me away

...

I wouldn't want to bother you

But I see you're absent

I would kill, I would kill

To be somewhere else

I've already been to hell

Tell me how you feel

I would kill, I would kill

To be in this moment

I feel like something is missing today to be

Something is missing today to feel

And as if I were losing weight

Aware of my volatility

I've started to fade away

And now I just wait for your return

I haven't eaten today, I'll eat tomorrow

I know I'm thinner and I've lost the desire

I need you to come and hold me tight

I need you to come, the air is carrying me away

...

I came to tell you that I was

Hugging nothingness so tightly

That I've lost touch with my skin

Yes, with my own skin

And tangled in my delusions

I hugged the emptiness so tightly

That I ended up disappearing

Come see me, come, come visit me

Come see if you can find me

Come see me, come, come find out

Where the hell I've gotten myself into

Come see me, come, nothing is the same anymore

A river used to flow through here

Come see me, come see if it's a coincidence

That we've both gotten lost

I haven't eaten today either, I'll eat tomorrow

I know I'm thinner and I've lost the desire

I need you to come and hold me tight

I need you to come, the air is carrying me away

...

[Spanish]

Me levanto de la cama

Me he levantado sin ganas

Esta noche es que no he dormido bien

Y me he mirado en el espejo

Y no estaba allí mi reflejo

He debido de desaparecer

Noto que algo me falta hoy para ser

Que me falta hoy para estar

Y como si me faltara peso

Consciente de mi volatilidad

Me he empezado a disipar

Y ya solo espero tu regreso

Hoy no he probado bocado, quién sabe si mañana

Sé que estoy más delgado, he perdido las ganas

Necesito que vengas, que vengas y me agarres

Necesito que vengas, que se me lleva el aire

No quisiera molestarte

Pero es que te veo ausente

Mataría yo, mataría

Por estar en otra parte

Yo ya he estado en el infierno

Cuéntame cómo te sientes

Mataría yo, mataría

Por estar en este instante

Noto que algo me falta hoy para ser

Que me falta hoy para estar

Y como si me faltara peso

Consciente de mi volatilidad

Me he empezado a disipar

Y ya solo espero tu regreso

Hoy no he probado bocado, ya comeré mañana

Sé que estoy más delgado y he perdido las ganas

Necesito que vengas tú para sujetarme

Necesito que vengas, que se me lleva el aire

He venido a decirte que estaba

Abrazado tan fuerte a la nada

Que he perdido el contacto con mi piel

Sí, con mi propia piel

Y enredado entre mis desvaríos

Me he abrazado tan fuerte al vacío

Que he acabado por desaparecer

Venme a ver, a ver, venme a visitar

Ven a ver si das conmigo

Venme a ver, a ver, ven a averiguar

Dónde coño me he metido

Venme a ver, a ver, ya nada es igual

Por aquí pasaba un río

Venme a ver, a ver si es casualidad

Que nos hayamos perdido

Hoy tampoco he probado bocado, ya comeré mañana

Sé que estoy más delgado y he perdido las ganas

Necesito que vengas tú para sujetarme

Necesito que vengas que se me lleva el aire
