Papeles [English translation]

Papers, just papers

Keep us together in a brutal farce

Papers that before God and the divine love

Have no worth after a love perished

We're performers who fake to love each other

In an ordinary comedy

A comedy that wears out and has no end or reality

Papers, just papers

Papers so cold that are only laws

Cowards keeping a situation

Of lies and pain for thinking in what the others will say

Are papers, are papers, love perished.
