Cuarenta Mil

Now I’m herding like a cat
What I turned down years ago
A hell of a lesson
That I’ll forget by tomorrow

Riding down the hill like lightning
On the little slope by the barracks
Flying like an angel
The strong wind feels good to me

Now I’m dying to bite a little piece
Of the heaven in your mouth
I’d crash a thousand times against that rock

I’ve changed my name once again
And I’ve stopped believing in myself
The pieces are falling and there’s something more
I’ve finally put it into words

I’ve started an effective therapy
And I’ve counted up to forty thousand
The times I should’ve unleashed
My demons onto you

Your theatrics brought down
The world I built for myself
Addicted to the waves
I became your souvenir
I’ve got etched in my memory the path
Of that broken gaze
You’ll keep thinking no one notices

I’ve changed my name once again
And I’ve stopped believing in myself
The pieces are falling and there’s something more
I’ve finally put it into words

I’ve started an effective therapy
And I’ve counted up to forty thousand
The times I should’ve unleashed
My demons onto you

I’ve changed my name once again
And I’ve stopped believing in myself
The pieces are falling and there’s something more
I’ve finally put it into words
