Son Recuerdos Y Promesas Rotas.

They're broken memories and promises

You’ll say they’re just memories, dead moments
I won’t deny they’re like images that time hides
They won’t have a life of their own, but you gave them one
A chance to be part of your story

And the memories are part of your mind, they’re inert
Your memory, after so much, remains strong
Recalling those intense moments of your life
Your first kiss, your first forbidden experience

Your first caress, your first dog, your first friend
Your first girlfriend who later became your enemy
Witness to your first experiences in life
You started to stumble and get back up from falls

With the help of mom and dad who are always there
From the very first second, never doubting you
But the years go by and you start forgetting things
Though some things never fade, like the smell of roses

The moments of the past wither little by little
Because there are bad memories that sometimes hit rock bottom
So deep they make you think, reconsider
Overthinking in a sea that wants to drown you

You remember your first fight, your first punishment
Because I know there are promises you never kept
You remember your first mistake, your first screw-up
Your beginnings, your first lyrics still well kept

You remember the first time you made love
Then everything fell apart and you still feel the pain
The resentment you carry inside, the broken feelings
Seeing her still with you, but only in photos

It’s then you remember the silly arguments
Yelling about everything and nothing
And it’s when everything comes together
You also remember the typical fights with your sister
School friends who left without saying a word

They’re gone, the memories, where will they go?
I guess there’s a place where they’ll stay
And they’ll remain, always there
Because some things you never forget, not even after death

Broken promises, promises I tried to keep
I did my best to make you feel happy
But jealousy soured me, and it always ended the same
Arguing, crying, and feeling like crap

And it’s then when your promises are worth nothing
After each puff, you leave a life behind
A life you wanted, but she wanted to forget
In a drastic way, starting over from scratch

I know it’s hard, my heart has stopped beating
For someone I loved and who’s still inside me
And I keep stressing every day thinking about this
Thinking about a maybe that never existed

And I cry alone, feeling a great anguish inside
I want another chance, even though I know I don’t deserve it
And I can’t sleep, you stole my life
And I still think of you, even though my bed is empty

The blame is mine for trusting the wrong person
Because a buddy let me down, guess who?
And it’s through hard knocks that I became distrustful
But I still believe in you, even if you’ve forgotten me

In the memories of your heart, I’m still there
From afar, you can see me in my fantasy crying
Like a child, like a newborn baby
Memories are just things from a lost past

In the present, there’s nothing but living day by day
Moving forward, crushing everything in this melody
Just like the broken promises you tried to keep
But you failed as always, even though you tried to fix it

The intention was good, you put in your part
Though you may not appreciate this now
I know you’ll appreciate it sooner or later
Promises that leave emptiness somewhere
And it never feels the same again

They’re gone, the memories, where will they go?
I guess there’s a place where they’ll stay
And they’ll remain, always there
Because some things you never forget, not even after death (Repeat)
