Como una espina de rosa, cuando yo te vi con otra, 00:20

fue lo que sentí, te quiero para mí. 00:26

Eres una calle rota, serpiente venenosa, 00:30

anoche soñé que estabas aquí. 00:36

Well, I got a feeling these scars won't ever look like they're old news, 00:40

if I let you keep on rubbing salt into all my open wounds. 00:46

I wish I could keep everything that you took of me but the photos, 00:51

but you keep a piece of me locked in a secret spot we called home. 00:55

Solita, solita. 01:08

Bailando aquí sola, como a mí me gusta. 01:14

Solita, solita. 01:18

Bailando aquí sola, es mejor que con el diablo. 01:24

Rooted in your ways, you won't ever know, 01:51

won't ever stay, who I am today, the roots of my soul, 01:56

now I need to face my demons alone. 02:02

So close, I could smell his cologne, he asked me why I'm all alone. 02:07

[English]

[MUSIC]

Como una espina de rosa, cuando yo te vi con otra,

fue lo que sentí, te quiero para mí.

Eres una calle rota, serpiente venenosa,

anoche soñé que estabas aquí.

Well, I got a feeling these scars won't ever look like they're old news,

if I let you keep on rubbing salt into all my open wounds.

I wish I could keep everything that you took of me but the photos,

but you keep a piece of me locked in a secret spot we called home.

Solita, solita.

Bailando aquí sola, como a mí me gusta.

Solita, solita.

Bailando aquí sola, es mejor que con el diablo.

[MUSIC]

Sola, sola, sola, sola.

Mejor que con el diablo, mejor que con el diablo.

[MUSIC]

Sola, sola, sola, sola.

Rooted in your ways, you won't ever know,

won't ever stay, who I am today, the roots of my soul,

now I need to face my demons alone.

So close, I could smell his cologne, he asked me why I'm all alone.

[MUSIC]

Solita, solita.

Bailando aquí sola, como a mí me gusta.

Solita, solita.

Bailando aquí sola, es mejor que con el diablo.

[MUSIC]

Sola, sola, sola, sola.

Mejor que con el diablo, mejor que con el diablo.

Sola, sola, sola, sola.
