Love of Lesbian - Allí donde solíamos gritar
¿A que no sabes dónde he vuelto hoy?
Donde solíamos gritar.
Diez años antes de este ahora sin edad,
aún vive el monstruo y aún no hay paz. Y en los bancos que escribimos
medio a oscuras, sin pensar,
todos los versos de
con las faltas de un chaval,
aún están. Y aún hoy
se escapa a mi control,
problema y solución,
y es que el grito siempre acecha,
es la respuesta. Y aún hoy
sólo el grito y la ficción
consiguen apagar
las luces de mi negra alerta. Tengo un cuchillo y es de plástico,
donde solía haber metal,
y el libro extraño que te echó de párvulos;
sus hojas tuve que incendiar. Y en los hierros que separan
la caída más brutal
siguen las dos iniciales
que escribimos con compás.
Ahí están. Vertical y transversal,
soy grito y soy cristal,Love of Lesbian - Allí donde solíamos gritar - http://motolyrics.com/love-of-lesbian/alli-donde-soliamos-gritar-lyrics-english-translation.html
justo el punto medio,
el que tanto odiabas
cuando tú me repetías que
"te hundirá y me hundirá,
y solamente el grito nos servirá".
Decías "es fácil" y solías empezar. Y es que el grito siempre vuelve,
y con nosotros morirá,
frío y breve como un verso
escrito en lengua animal.
Y siempre está. Te hundirá y me hundirá
y solamente el grito nos servirá.
Y ahora no es fácil;
tú solías empezar. Vertical y transversal,
soy grito y soy cristal,
justo el punto medio,
el que tanto odiabas
cuando tú me provocabas aullar. Y ya está, ya hay paz,
oh, ya hay paz.
Y ya está, ya hay paz,
oh, ya hay paz. ¿Por quién gritaba?
Lo sé y tú no;
no preguntabas.
Tú nunca, no.
Love of Lesbian - That place where we used to scream (English translation)
Bet you don't know where I went back today,
back to the place where we used to scream.
Ten years before this ageless present,
the monster lives and peace still hasn't come.
And on the benches on which we wrote,
in the half-light, in a trance,
all the magic words to "Heroes",
with the spelling mistakes of ours.
Yeah, they're still there.
And still now,
it continues to escape my control,
the problem and solution,
'cos the scream always lies beneath,
yeah, it's the answer.
And still now,
only screams and make-believe,
succeed in extinguishing,
the lights of my black alert.
I have a knife that's made of plastic,
where there used to be metal.
and that strange book that got you expelled from nursery,
I had to burn every page.
And on those iron bars that separate us,
from the most awful fall,
remain the two intials,
we scribed with a compass.
Yeah, they're still there.
Vertical and transversal,
I'm a scream and I'm crystal,Love of Lesbian - Allí donde solíamos gritar - http://motolyrics.com/love-of-lesbian/alli-donde-soliamos-gritar-lyrics-english-translation.html
exactly halfway inbetween,
the fact you used to hate so much,
when you repeated to me that,
it'll tear you apart and it'll tear me apart,
and we'll only keep it together by screaming,
you'd say it's easy and then you would begin.
And the scream always returns,
and with us it will die,
cold and brief like a line,
written in an animal language.
And it's always there.
It'll tear you apart and it'll tear me apart,
and we'll only keep it together by screaming,
and now it's not so easy,
'cos you used to begin.
Vertical and transversal,
I'm a scream and I'm crystal,
exactly halfway inbetween,
the fact you used to hate so much,
when you used to provoke me to howl.
And that's it, at last there's peace,
oh, at last there's peace.
And that's it, at last there's peace,
oh, at last there's peace.
Who were my screams for?
I know, you don't.
You never asked,
no, you never did.
