Les murs
Ana Torroja
The Walls
The walls have ears
But they never reveal
Their secrets
I’ll wait for them to speak to me
About dreams with no way out
About lost keys
About silent screams
About heavy burdens...
Behind the painted shutters
There’s nothing
But a thick silence...
Who will lift the veil
On these deadly mysteries?
On the watchful eyes
On the layoffs?
I’ll wait for you to speak
For you to come
And understand
That there’s no time to waste
Chorus:
Loneliness is a prison
Where you lock yourself up
To avoid naming
The real problems...
The walls you surround yourself with
Have made you deaf
Blind, mute...
Who will lift the veil?
Who will return the sky
The water and the salt?
Who will tell me one day where
The path to your soul is?
Show me
Don’t forget:
There’s no time to waste
Chorus
You say nothing and you lie down
I’m dying of thirst so close to the source
A flower
Deprived of water....
Chorus
Do you love me?
Do we love each other?
Do you love me?
