Fidelity

Ahora sabes que el alma no existe. Acerca de ella tienes la idea pura que compete a los ingenuos, las consecuencias imprescindibles de ridículos actos de cordura. Has sido por demasiado tiempo parte de una mentira tejida, empiezas a creer que los hilos sobrantes no son más que adornos de tu línea, y justo cuando me decido a hablarte cierras la puerta. Las notas quieren decirlo por sí mismas. El tiempo no ha sido benévolo con ellas ni contigo. Te está doliendo, lo sé. Quisiera colocar en ti el antídoto para tu mal, pero un mal semejante no puede hacer más que seguir su ritmo. Por eso te escribo, porque estaba decidida a mostrarte la apreciación que tengo yo de tu bondad. Después de todo, tu traición no vale nada ya. Ha pasado a ser otro de tus engaños. Uno más.

House of leaves

Hey now, overcome your concern about the weather
and whether or not I'm still alive, check the vital signs
so soft spoken and shy, never gets high anymore
did you poison my food? forgive me I've paranoid flu

I've been lying wide awake paralyzed by the buzzing of the television
these modern things we know, getting you off
these modern things we know, getting you off

Haunting us, these different meanings and spectral beings
we're fighting sleep with broken, rusted weaponry
sing so softly and low, like you want me to hear
stolen what you can't afford, what's that muffle beating for?

I've been lying wide awake paralyzed by the buzzing of the television
these modern things we know, getting you off
these modern things we know, getting you off

Something I could never say, speak so softly and low
something I could never say (yltfos os kaeps)
something I could never say (yltfos os kaeps)
something I could never say (yltfos os kaeps)
(speak so softly and low)
something I could never say, speak so softly and low
(speak so softly, yltfos os kaeps)
if you love me let me go (stolen what you can't)
speak so softly (speak so softly)
(stolen what you can't afford, what's that muffle beat)
(yltfos os kaeps, speak so softly)
(something I can never say, speak so softly and low)
(speak so softly)
(yltfos os kaeps, yltfos os kaeps, yltfos)
