la noia
Cristina Lora
The Boredom
How many drawings have I made
I stay here and look at them
None of them come to life
This page is lazy
I’m in a rush
And they told me that life is precious
I wear it high and proud around my neck
My necklace doesn’t have pearls of wisdom
I got colorful beads instead
For the girls tangled up in trauma
To untangle slowly with age
And yet I’m having a blast, look, no drama
I might just change cities again
'Cause standing still drives me crazy, drives me crazy
The boredom
The boredom
The boredom
The boredom
I’m dying without dying
In these worn-out days
I live without suffering
There’s no bigger cross
All we can do is laugh
In these burnt-out nights
A crown of thorns
Will be the dress code for my party
Oh, it’s the cumbia of boredom, mhm
It’s the cumbia of total boredom
Ah, it’s the cumbia of boredom, uh, uh
It’s the cumbia of total boredom
So many people see the bad in things
Makes you wanna run away as soon as they start talking
And I’d like to tell them I’m fine, but then they give me dirty looks
So I say it’s hard to get by
Business, you talk about business
Meanwhile, I close my eyes to sign contracts
Mhm, princess, they call you princess
So now stop washing the dishes
I’m dying without dying
In these worn-out days
I live without suffering
There’s no bigger cross
All we can do is laugh
In these burnt-out nights
A crown of thorns
Will be the dress code for my party
Oh, it’s the cumbia of boredom, mhm, oh
It’s the cumbia of total boredom
So do you write songs?
Yeah, love songs
And I don’t wanna bore you
But someone’s gotta sing them
Cumbia, I dance the cumbia
If I risk tripping, at least I stop the boredom
So I throw a party, throw a party
'Cause it’s the only way to stop
To stop, to stop
I’m dying 'cause dying
Makes the days more human
I live 'cause suffering
Brings the greatest joys
All we can do is laugh
In these burnt-out nights
A crown of thorns
Will be the dress code for my party
It’s the cumbia of boredom, wooh
It’s the cumbia of total boredom
It’s the cumbia of boredom, uh, uh
It’s the cumbia of total boredom
Mhm, it’s the cumbia of boredom
It’s the cumbia of, it’s the cumbia of
It’s the cumbia of total boredom
Total
