Lyrics
Iba para estudiante, no para artista.
Vengo de familia rota, de infancia partida.
En los billares aprendí más que en la escuela.
Frases vacías y huecas de aquella maestra.
Vengo de una ciudad pequeña y honesta
donde el frío es arte y sus calles abiertas,
en ellas crecí, en ellas me pierdo
cuando vuelvo de viaje y me encuentro sediento.
Los recuerdos pesan, son cemento en mi maleta.
Vengo a escupirte mis canciones,
vengo a dormir frente a tu puerta,
vengo a pedirte un trago y algo de paciencia.
Vengo a decirte que no duermo
porque me ahogo en mi tristeza,
debería sonreir pero me cuesta.
Soy ciudadano del mundo, aborrezco la guerra,
nunca entendí los visados ni sus fronteras.
Para soñar no hace falta plata ni monedas.
Hoy cantaremos aquí, mañana donde sea.
Nos veremos donde halla una botella,
un escenario, una risa, una luna llena,
una cama de hotel, un puñado de estrellas,
allí donde nunca las lágrimas valgan la pena.
Los recuerdos pesan, son cemento en mi maleta.
Vengo a escupirte mis canciones,
vengo a dormir frente a tu puerta,
vengo a pedirte un trago y algo de paciencia.
Vengo a decirte que no duermo
porque me ahogo en mi tristeza,
debería sonreir pero me cuesta.
Lyrics translation
I was a student, not an artist.
I come from broken family, from broken childhood.
I learned more in billiards than I did in school.
Empty, hollow sentences from that teacher.
I come from a small, honest town
where the cold is art and its open streets,
in them I grew up, in them I get lost
when I go back on a trip and I find myself thirsty.
Memories weigh, they're cement in my suitcase.
I come to spit on you my songs,
I come to sleep in front of your door,
I'm here to ask you for a drink and some patience.
I come to tell you I don't sleep
because I drown in my sadness,
I should smile, but it's hard for me.
I am a citizen of the world, I hate war,
I never understood visas or their borders.
You don't need money or coins to dream.
We'll sing here today, tomorrow wherever.
I'll meet you where you find a bottle.,
a stage, a laugh, a full moon,
a hotel bed, a handful of stars,
where tears are never worth it.
Memories weigh, they're cement in my suitcase.
I come to spit on you my songs,
I come to sleep in front of your door,
I'm here to ask you for a drink and some patience.
I come to tell you I don't sleep
because I drown in my sadness,
I should smile, but it's hard for me.
