[English]

It's been seventeen days since I've heard from you

My psychologist told me that you're running away from me

Where are you, why aren't you answering the phone?

You left me alone, baby

What's going on? You left

You better have died

Oh, how can this be?, she doesn't want to see me

I stood at your door to wait for you yesterday

Where are you?

Even the walls are talking to me about you

It's been a while since I've spoken to you

And if they ask me, I pretend not to

Baby, it's just your imagination

I keep ordering ramen for two

But we were never "the two"

I put on old audios to listen to your voice (how?)

Since the day you left

I don't know why the hell you didn't come back

I'm still clinging to something that doesn't exist

To think you forgot about me is so sad (so sad)

Since the day you left (no, no, no, no, no)

I don't know why the hell you didn't come back (no, no, no, no, no)

I'm still clinging to something that doesn't exist

To think you forgot about me is so sad (oh, no, no)

How I wish we could talk without having to shout

You have more imagination than honesty

If I left, it was only out of necessity

That intensity isn't for me

It's obsession, it's not love, now the psychologist is for the two of us

You assure me that you love me as if you knew me

I wish someone would see the situation

Understand it, please

How is something that never started going to end?

We're going from bad to worse and no one believed me

Everyone thinks that I'm the fool and the bad guy

I don't know what to do, I go for a run, but I see you everywhere

Like Pucca and Garu; you're crazy like Helga, Hey, Arnold!

Even the walls are talking to me about you

You don't understand that I need you

And if they ask me, I say no

I know it's not just my imagination

Baby, understand that I'm better alone

Ramen for two

So I ask you, don't call the phone (what?)

Since the day I left, I know (no, no, no)

That the scars were going to remain (no, no)

I had to leave to not hurt you

That we keep talking isn't helping us (let's go, yes)

Since the day I left, I know (no, no, no)

That the scars were going to remain

I had to leave to not hurt you (okay)

That we keep talking isn't helping us

Lady, pa

Baby, I'm crazy and you want a Miss Stacy

I used to put your songs on my playlist

And you preferred the basic bitch

After what you did to me

Loving you makes no sense

Hey, wait!, I feel like shooting you

And also dying with you, fuck them

And I don't know why the hell you didn't come back

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

That we keep talking isn't helping us

Since the day you left (you left)

I don't know why the hell you didn't come back (didn't come back)

I'm still clinging to something that doesn't exist

To think you forgot about me is so sad (so sad)

Since the day I left, I know (no, no, no, no)

That the scars were going to remain (no, no, no, no)

I had to leave to not hurt you (something that doesn't exist)

That we keep talking isn't helping us (So fucking sad)

Ey, ey (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Leones con Flow (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Paulo Londra (yeah, yeah, yeah)

And La Nena de Argentina (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Tell me, XROSS

Two, two, three

[Spanish]

Hace diecisiete días que no sé nada de ti

Mi psicóloga me dijo que estás huyendo de mí

¿Dónde estás, que no respondes el phone?

Me dejaste alone, baby

¿Qué pasa? Te fuiste

Más te vale que sea porque te moriste

Ay, ¿cómo puede ser?, no me quiere ver

Me paré en la puerta de tu casa a esperarte ayer

Where are you?

Hasta las paredes me hablan de vos

Si hace tiempo que no hablo contigo

Y si me preguntan, yo finjo que no

Baby, es solo tu imaginación

Sigo pidiendo ramen para dos

Pero si nunca fuimos los do'

Pongo audios viejos pa escuchar tu voz (¿cómo?)

Desde el día en que te fuiste

Yo no sé por qué mierda no volviste

Sigo aferrada a algo que no existe

Pensar que me olvidaste es tan triste (tan triste)

Desde el día en que te fuiste (no, no, no, no, no)

Yo no sé por qué mierda no volviste (no, no, no, no, no)

Sigo aferrada a algo que no existe

Pensar que me olvidaste es tan triste (oh, no, no)

Cómo quisiera que hablemos sin tener que gritar

Tiene' más imaginación que honestidad

Si me alejé solo fue por necesidad

No es pa mí esa intensidad

Es obsesión, no es amor, ahora el psicólogo es para los do'

Aseguras que me quieres como si me conocieras

Ojalá que alguien vea la situación

Entiéndelo, por favor

¿Cómo va a terminar algo que no empezó?

Estamo yendo de mal en peor y nadie me creyó

Todos piensan que el tonto y el malo soy yo

No sé qué hacer, salgo a correr, pero te veo en todos lado'

Como Pucca y Garu; estás loca como Helga, Hey, Arnold!

Hasta las paredes me hablan de vos

Vos no entendés que te necesito

Y si me preguntan yo digo que no

Sé que no es solo mi imaginación

Baby, entiende que estoy mejor alone

Ramen para dos

Así que te pido, no llames al phone (¿qué?)

Desde el día en que me fui sé (no, no, no)

Que iban a quedar las cicatrices (no, no)

Tuve que alejarme pa no herirte

Que sigamo hablando no nos sirve (let's go, sí)

Desde el día en que me fui sé (no, no, no)

Que iban a quedar las cicatrices

Tuve que alejarme pa no herirte (okay)

Que sigamo hablando no nos sirve

Lady, pa

Baby, I'm crazy y tú quieres una Miss Stacy

Yo ponía tus cancione en mi playlist

Y vos preferiste a la puta basic

Después de lo que hiciste conmigo

Quererte no tiene sentido

Hey, wait!, qué ganas de pegarte un tiro

Y de paso morirme contigo, fuck them

Y no sé por qué mierda no volviste

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

Que sigamo hablando no nos sirve

Desde el día en que te fuiste (te fuiste)

Yo no sé por qué mierda no volviste (no volviste)

Sigo aferrada a algo que no existe

Pensar que me olvidaste es tan triste (tan triste)

Desde el día en que me fui sé (no, no, no, no)

Que iban a quedar las cicatrices (no, no, no, no)

Tuve que alejarme pa no herirte (algo que no existe)

Que sigamo hablando no nos sirve (So fucking sad)
