lyrics

“Streets of despair”

I can guess the faint smile on your face.
The grim face, the pale glow of joy
long forgotten.

A wandering path.
Empty.
Steps that are lost,
in the echo of other steps.
And the incessant hum
of crowds also lost.

Where are your eyes hiding?
Who is watching them?

Miserable and cruel, the contempt walks,
across the streets of despair.
A thousand tears are one,
and all ignored.

A sigh in silence spreads
in a closed room.
Four walls steeped in mournful contemplation.

Español:

“Calles de la desesperación”


Puedo adivinar la sonrisa desmayada en tu rostro.
La mueca sombrìa, el pàlido fulgor de una alegrìa
hace tiempo olvidada.

Un camino errante.
Vacìo.
Pasos que se pierden,
en el eco de otros pasos.
Y el murmullo insesante
de multitudes tambièn perdidas.

¿Dónde están escondidos tus ojos?
¿Quién los contempla?

Miserable y cruel se pasea el desprecio,
por las calles de la desesperación.
Mil lágrimas son una,
y todas ignoradas.

Un suspiro se propaga en el silencio
de una habitación cerrada.
Cuatro paredes sumidas en apesadumbrada contemplación.
