Cold like a salt statue
in a a crystal masuleum
Dry to the bone in reason of weeping
And dead like Tiberius in his prison
All in ruins like Parthenon,
alone like Columbus ended up
Pallid like the Mona Lisa,
soured like a lemon,
wrinkled like an acordion
Like the Spinx when it lost its nose
Like ALexander the Great without
his sword and shield
Like a poor Christian stuck in Roman Emperialism
I look for something I can answer
Because I'm tired of thinking
How is it that the seconds pass
and I survive this universal flood
Without much effortthe explanation
appears in an old drawer
And in less than a single fraction
It lives again and clad in green is
my heart
Chorus:
Come back, come back
Come back, come back
That my life slides through a gutter
that me feet have grown callouses from standing
that I don't know how to tell you
that I miss you
And in these I have passed
more than a year
(Repeat Chorus)
That my lifeboat is
sinking in the muck
That from anguish
I have bitten my own elbows
That my world is empty and
boring,
That I die to have you
here with me
