Ciudad de Papel

Go, give me space, give me time
Close the curtains tight
I’m tired of being strong
Of running on landmines
I want a break, I want some shade
Today the light's too bright

I search for refuge in silence
Following its coordinates
For now, I need
A little bit of nothing
From memories of the future
Or from past lives
I’ve got scratches, my skin’s on fire
I feel glass beneath my feet
I keep a hell to love
A fire that insists on living in a city of paper

I’ve got storms to spill
Open doors to close
With my heart in the crosshairs
I want to dance with my pain
Let me burn in my city of paper
Come back, give me air, give me sky
Open the curtains wide
I’m strong as always
Another day has come
And sometimes to build myself up
I need my ruins

I’ve got scratches, my skin’s on fire
I feel glass beneath my feet
I keep a hell to love
So much to give
Today I want to burn

I’ve got storms to spill
Open doors to close
With my heart in the crosshairs
I want to dance with my pain
Let me burn in my city of paper
