Sin Memoria

I can live without believing in God
without someone superior
suggesting things to me
from a television
I can live without labels without skins
without all those people
who are already sharpening their teeth
facing the future

But I can't live without memory...

I can live without any flag
just two bare shins
a skull
and her eyes.
I can live without Alvarez or helmets
without a bunch of Basques
without police without government
without judges without tobacco

But I can't live without memory
without memory of every step we took
without memory, without memory
of so many things I've experienced.

I can live without you but I don't want to
why would I get used to
after so long
that no one scolds me.

I can live without heroes to save me
without dogs barking at me
with little more than nothing
just a few liters of air

But I can't live without memory
without memory of every step we took
without memory, without memory
of so many things I've experienced.

I can live without heroes to save me
without dogs barking at me
with little more than nothing
just a few liters of air
