Lyrics
Arrojarse al vacío es una misión
arrojarse por pena o deseperación
no jugar a arrojarse, arrojarse mi amor
arrojarse en el nombre
de esta puta nación
Cuando no hay mas lugares de dónde escapar,
cuando sólo se busca ese signo vital
cuando ya viste todo, la playa y el sol,
tu cadáver, las moscas y el enterrador
Vale, salta y cae de espalda
Salta nueve pisos, caes en el agua
Vale, nadie tiene calma
todo vale todo, todo vale nada
Sos el ciego que ve lo que el tuerto jamás
el fusible en la casa, que está por saltar
sos el king, sos el size, de la velocidad
sos el nene perdido buscando a mamá
Acabás siempre preso, preso por amor
una llama que sangra con luz de dolor
Me la paso pensando, y vos ilumniás
sos tan insoportable como la verdad
Vale, salta y cae de espalda
Salta nueve pisos, caes en el agua
Vale, nadie tiene calma
todo vale todo, todo vale nada
Vale, salta y cae de espalda
Saltas nueve pisos, caes en el agua
Vale, nunca tenés calma
todo vale todo, todo vale nada
Vale…
Busqué, salí, peleé, viví, salté, por tí,
la piel, el fin,
no busques nada mas de lo que ves en mi Vale, vale, vale, vale…
Lyrics translation
Throwing yourself into the void is a mission
throwing yourself out of grief or despair
don't play throwing, throwing my love
throwing yourself in the name
of this fucking nation
When there are no more places to escape,
when only that vital sign is sought
when you've seen everything, the beach and the sun,
your corpse, the flies and The Undertaker
Okay, jump and fall on your back
Jump nine floors, fall into the water
Okay, no one's calm.
everything is worth everything, everything is worth nothing
You are the blind man who sees what the blind man never sees
the fuse in the house, which is about to jump
you're the king, you're the size, you're the speed
you're the lost baby looking for mom
You always end up in jail, in jail for love
a flame that bleeds with light of pain
I keep thinking, and you light up
you're as unbearable as the truth
Okay, jump and fall on your back
Jump nine floors, fall into the water
Okay, no one's calm.
everything is worth everything, everything is worth nothing
Okay, jump and fall on your back
You jump nine floors, you fall into the water
Okay, never take it easy.
everything is worth everything, everything is worth nothing
Okay…
I searched, I went out, I fought, I lived, I jumped, for you,
the skin, the end,
look for nothing more than what you see in me. Okay, okay, okay, okay.…
