En El Rio

Before going,
Plans are made and undone,
Blames and chains.
They form a loom,
That they have woven eternally,
Arachne and Athena.

You are not here anymore,
I left you at the riverbank,
Tucked inside that basket.
And now you empty,
Spin and spin forever,
Inside a spinning wheel.

In the river, in the river,
The shore is a cage with many fighting roosters.
Siren songs sound.
They kill each other with clubs,
A very Goyaesque scene.
In the night, in the night,
The world spins,
Hunger spins and a gun on the table.
In the river, in the river,
Screams are heard in the river,
Someone won't make it out of this.

In the river, in the river,
Siren songs sound.
And in the night, oh in the night,
They still wake me up.
In the river, in the river,
Siren songs sound.
And in the night, oh in the night,
They still wake me up.
