I care. I hope you do, too

Con el corazón lleno de amor
puedo alcanzar
los lugares más extraños e
inhóspitos,
puedo soportar el peso
terrible,
del viento espeso
derritiéndose por mi cuello y
penetrando en mi garganta,
en las tardes grises
que pueden durarme
toda una vida.

Soy capaz, incluso, de aferrarme
al minúsculo rayo de luz
que se escapa de unos labios
rojos,
y creer que puedo ser feliz,
simplemente,
buscando el perfume
que desprende tu pelo
en la ciudad más grande del mundo.

Y entonces sé que podrías
estrangularme
con tus deditos de esponja,
podrías romperme
con un aleteo de pestañas,
quemarme la piel seca que se agrieta
a cada soplo de amargura,
de esperanza estéril;
con la sonrisa tibia
y las palabras que se mueren
en el borde de tu boca.

No sé cuántas cosas podrías hacer
y es mortal el miedo que tengo
de que no las hagas.
Y espero
-de verdad lo hago-
que algún día puedas leer esto,
y me empujes con fuerza
contra ti;
que cojas mi mano y dibujes en tu pecho,
este sendero que parece tan
ciego, este destino incierto
que nos vuelca en parques desiertos,
en las noches sin luna.

People

People always think they know other people, but they don’t. Not really. I mean, maybe they know things about them, like they won’t eat doughnuts or they like action movies or whatever. But they don’t know what their friends do in their rooms alone at night or what happened to them when they were kids or if they feel fucked up and sad for not reason at all.

So far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're just time away

Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
Oh, how I wish I could
But you're so far away

One more song about moving along the highway
Can't say much of anything that's new
If I could only work this life out my way
I'd rather spend it being close to you

But you're so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're so far away

Traveling around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothing else to do but close my mind
I sure hope the road don't come to own me
There's so many dreams I've yet to find

But you're so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're so far away...
