Lyrics
Enemigo de la guerra
Y su reverso, la medalla,
No propuse otra batalla
Que librar al corazn
De ponerse cuerpo a tierra
Bajo el peso de una historia
Que iba a alzar hasta la gloria
El poder de la razn.
Y ahora que ya no hay trincheras
El combate es la escalera
Y el que trepe a lo mas alto
Pondra a salvo su cabeza
Aunque se hunda en el asfalto
La belleza.
Miralos como reptiles,
Al acecho de la presa,
Negociando en cada mesa
Maquillajes de ocasin;
Siguen todos los railes
Que conduzcan a la cumbre
Locos, porque nos deslumbre
Su parasita ambicin.
Antes iban de profetas
Y ahora el xito es su meta;
Mercaderes, traficantes,
Mas que nausea dan tristeza,
No rozaron ni un instante
La belleza.
Y me hablaron de futuros
Fraternales, solidarios,
Donde todo lo falsario
Acabaria en el piln.
Y ahora que se cae el muro
Ya no somos tan iguales
Tanto tienes, tanto vales
Viva la revolucin!
Reivindico el espejismo
De intentar ser uno mismo,
Ese viaje hacia la nada
Que consiste en la certeza
De encontrar en tu mirada
La belleza.
Lyrics translation
Enemy of war
And its reverse, the medal,
I didn't propose another battle
That deliver the heart
To put body to the ground
Under the weight of a story
That he would rise to glory
The power of the razn.
And now that there are no trenches
Combat is the ladder
And the one who climbs to the highest
He'll keep his head safe.
Even if it sinks on the asphalt
Beauty.
Look at them like reptiles,
In the lurch of the dam,
Negotiating at every table
Makeup of ocasin;
They follow all the tracks
Leading to the summit
Crazy, because it dazzles us
His parasite ambicin.
They used to be prophets.
And now success is your goal;
Merchants, traffickers,
But what nausea gives sadness,
They didn't graze for an instant.
Beauty.
And they told me about futures
Fraternal, solidarity,
Where all the forgery
It would end up in the piln.
And now that the wall falls
We're not so equal anymore
So much you got, so much you got
Long Live The Revolution!
I claim the Mirage
Of trying to be yourself,
That trip to nowhere
What is certainty
To find in your eyes
Beauty.
