Mataleón

I've erased my promise from the pavement
I just want to get through the future
I pay my respects to the saints in your room
You tell me how the other guy does it
I'm overwhelmed with emotions and I can't contain it
I want to love like a madman would
And even though I never want to fade away
They're gonna shoot me down in mid-air
Don't you feel the same, bullfighter?

I give in to the thrill of this city
Egyptian cotton on my collarbone
I fall before your empire in its fleetingness
I'm gonna be great on the peninsula
I might seem like a crazy person
Or this life just feels too little
Today I escape like a wild horse
Searching for the lotus flower

Time passes and slips through your fingers
I'm still anchored in your gypsy words
I'm overwhelmed with emotions and I can't contain it
I want to love like a madman would
And even though I never want to fade away
They're gonna shoot me down in mid-air
Don't you feel the same?

I give in to the thrill of this city
Egyptian cotton on my collarbone
I fall before your empire in its fleetingness
I'm gonna be great on the peninsula
I might seem like a crazy person
Or this life just feels too little
Today I escape like a wild horse
Searching for the lotus flower
