Crosses

Don't you know that I'll be around to guide you
Through your weakest moments to leave them behind you
Returning nightmares only shadows
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright for now
Crosses all over, heavy on your shoulders
The sirens inside you waiting to step forward
Disturbing silence darkens your sight
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright for now
Crosses all over the boulevard
The streets outside your window overflooded
People staring they know you've been broken
Repeatedly reminded by the looks on their faces
Ignore them tonight and you'll be alright
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright

Todos cargamos cruces.
Las propias y ajenas tambien.
A veces tan pesadas que se nos incrustan profundo.
A veces el mismo dolor de cargarlas es una fuente de placer.
A vos te toco cargar una pesada.
Y elegiste ayudar a otros a cargar las suyas.
Y para olvidar el dolor propio te anestesiaste.
Y seguiste caminando hasta colapsar.
Quise alivianar tu carga en el trayecto compartido.
En cambio, mi amor le agrego peso a tu cruz.
Ahora llevo la cruz de este amor errante.
Que se encrusta en mi ser y duele.
