lyrics

Las frases hechas madeja en la garganta.
La hebra se tensa, no hay aire, no digo nada.
La voz mutilada da vueltas en la cabeza,
repasa una y mil veces la torpe respuesta.

Cubro con tierra y ya no lo veo,
cubro con tierra y todo es silencio.
Trago con tierra mis palabras,
trago con tierra las mañanas.
Calla y otorga.

Hundo profundo la lengua embarrada
devora memoria,
la rabia se seca en el cielo de la boca.

La mano sujeta la mano, los labios tropiezan,
los ojos cerrados son brasas, mandíbula presa,
tres toneladas a plomo sobre la espalda,
las sienes repican los gritos, no escucho nada.

Cubro con tierra y ya no lo veo,
cubro con tierra y todo es silencio.
Trago con tierra mis palabras,
trago con tierra las mañanas.
Calla y otorga.

Hundo, profundo la lengua embarrada
devora memoria,
la rabia se seca en el cielo de la boca.

Y no me digas que el tiempo cura,
y no me digas que el tiempo ordena,
y no me digas que tiempo al tiempo.
