Alibi [English translation]

Now that you are here next to me

I no longer have an alibi, I would not leave

Yeah, ah

I left everything behind me

Who almost always lived in the past

We all seek some a little company

But we don't notice who we don't need

Do you ever have what you want

Or does it happen a bit by chance?

What were you expecting then

There was not

Maybe you don't believe it until it happens

It seemed like yesterday, who could imagine it?

What you don't see is not always the soul

For me it is a truth that I do not know

Now that you are here next to me

I no longer have an alibi, I would never leave

Now that you are here next to me

(Now that you're close to me, now that you're close to me)

(Now that you're close to me, now that you're close to me)

I no longer have an alibi to keep looking for

(Now that you're close to me, now that you're close to me)

(Now that you're close to me, now that you're close to me)

When I enter the room the air stops

I turn, chest to the wall, "one, two, three, star"1

Then I go hollow and expose my chest, air and earth

You burn yourself as soon as you touch my skin

Don't I remember you of someone you've seen before?

With the wounds that interrupt my body

I collect my thoughts on how, when and with whom

And you remember the crucifix at school as a child

I hit myself on the head, blood comes out and becomes water

A tear falls into the sea and a beach is formed

I'm in a parallel universe with no drugs or alcohol

I feel a noise in my stomach, anxiety knocks on me

I apologize with it for the wait, I make it wait

It waits with perhaps too high expectations

I can't wait to sleep and to forget

I am scared with open eyes because it is truth and

I close my eyes, half asleep I have spasmodic muscles

How to protect me from a nothingness that could harm me

You touch me at the right point, yes, I am at the point down there

I'm always alert with my torso while I loose your knots, bang

In front of the muzzle a few slices of meat

I don't open my mouth even if I'm starving

I plug my nose because the smell is strong

And I go a little further to forget about it

Now that you are here next to me

I no longer have an alibi, I would never leave

Now that you are here next to me

(Now that you're close to me, now that you're close to me)

(Now that you're close to me, now that you're close to me)

I no longer have an alibi to keep looking for

(Now that you're close to me, now that you're close to me)

(Now that you're close to me, now that you're close to me)

You are here

You are here
