Can't anybody?

Can't anybody find me somebody to love?

Queen.

Tatuaje

El duende de los amores contrariados
lleva tu nombre y el mío
tatuados en el meñique derecho
-el que sube al tomar cafe-

Para no olvidarnos
-para no olvidarse de olvidarnos-
Y así mantener viva la llama
del fuego azul y frío del olvido.

Y así es como es.

A.

The Ghost of myself.

After you're gone
I like to think of me
as the ghost of myself.
Haunting me.

On every move

Every night.

A

Mermaid dreams.

It's easy for you to say
"Stop living in the past."
You don't have a heart,
you have a cold dark stone instead.

You were born with this gift.

You can change your plans
so easy and careless
-like changing TV channels-
and still show your everyday smile.

In the meantime,

while you walk -grabbing hands with him-
I'm fighting thousand battles
with all my demons
under the sea.

Life is easy for you.

So easy.

A.

From my coordinates.

I try constantly to squeeze life
and leave a decent legacy
to the humankind
-from my coordinates.

The ideas are boiling in my mind
as a gargantuan leviathan
of marvelous and incredible acts
always swimming inside of me.

But am the kind of weirdo
that find the exact same pleasure
in front of the biggest mountain
or in front of the smallest flower.

And that's how it is.

A.

Happiness.

People used to think
that happiness is a destiny
- a place somewhere in a far land-
and are constantly chasing it.

People are always searching
for the ticket counter
in which they can buy VIP tickets
to ride the "All time happiness" express.

Many of us are waiting
for this magic door
that will pop up somewhere
and will let us in - with no effort at all.

What a delusion of grandeur.

Happiness is a state of mind.

Happiness is an option.

A.

What do we want?

What do we want?

A faster car?
Expensive accessories?
A bigger house?
Expensive clothes?

What do we want?

What make us happy?

None of these things
will go with us
to the other side of life.
Live now. Here.

A.

Common sense.

Each and every boy
have the natural right
to be happy, to smile...
to play with his own toys.

Every kid (and that's clear)
should enjoy once in a while
without worrying or fear
to be caught by someone.

Playing late at night
with nice -but stolen- toys
alone in the park, far from public eyes
is not easy, is not nice, is not quality time.

I mean...it's our call.
To have our own things
is what it's expected.
...It's common sense, after all.

A.

Tonight.

Tonight is forever
tell me now you don't disappear.
Open the door
(You hold the key)

Just follow your instincts
Let the forever after start now.

Tonight is the first night.

A.

Quien no iría?

Con un canalla como yo
y un pasaporte a Bangkok
...quien no iría?

Los chicos no lloran.
ni hablan del pasado,
ni se acuerdan de nadie.

Es mi vida ah
-no quiero cambiar-
los chicos no lloran
(Solo pueden soñar).

Es mi vida.

A.
