Lyrics:

[Español]

[English]

Somos cómplices los dos

We are both accomplices

...

...

Al menos sé que huyo porque amo

At least I know I flee because I love

...

...

Necesito distensión

I need some relaxation

...

...

Estar así, despierto

Being like this, awake

Es un delirio de condenados

It's a delirium of the condemned

...

...

Como un efecto residual

Like a residual effect

...

...

Yo siempre tomaré el desvío

I will always take the detour

...

...

Tus ojos nunca mentirán

Your eyes will never lie

...

...

Pero ese ruido blanco

But that white noise

Es una alarma en mis oídos

Is an alarm in my ears

No seas tan cruel

Don't be so cruel

No busques más pretextos

Don't look for more excuses

No seas tan cruel

Don't be so cruel

Siempre seremos prófugos

We will always be fugitives

Los dos

Both of us

...

...

No tenemos dónde ir

We have nowhere to go

Somos como un área devastada

We are like a devastated area

...

...

Carreteras sin sentido

Meaningless roads

...

...

Religiones sin motivo

Religions without reason

¿Cómo podremos sobrevivir?

¿Cómo podremos sobrevivir?

No seas tan cruel

How will we survive?

No busques más pretextos

Don't be so cruel

No seas tan cruel

Don't look for more excuses

Siempre seremos, siempre seremos prófugos

Don't be so cruel

Los dos

We will always be, we will always be fugitives

...

Both of us

Ven, no seas tan cruel

Come, don't be so cruel

No busques más pretextos

Don't look for more excuses

No seas tan cruel

Don't be so cruel

Siempre seremos prófugos

We will always be fugitives

...

...

Siempre seremos prófugos

We will always be fugitives

...

...

Siempre seremos

We will always be

...

...
