Dorian (Spain) "Los Amigos Que Perdí" lyrics

Los Amigos Que Perdí

Salí en busca del tiempo perdidoSiguiendo el rastro de un amanecerY me junte con gente sin medidaDe la que nadie quiere conocer

Un loco me dio clases de estricninaUn escritor me hablo de mal de honorUn juez me absolvió de mi rutinaY una flor me extirpó el dolor

Si quieres vermeVas a tener que explorarEsos desiertos que no puedo abandonarAbrí una puerta que se cerró tras de míY no me duelen los amigos que perdí

Me especialice en noches suicidasJusto el día en que la conocíY confundí molinos con gigantesDespués de una semana sin dormir

Si quieres vermeVas a tener que explorarEsos desiertos que no puedo abandonarAbrí una puerta que se cerró tras de míY no me duelen los amigos que perdí

El miedo es un cuchillo afiladoLa venganza una flecha clavadaNo hay nada más inútil que el odioNo hay nada más doloroso que el rencor

Trato de salir de mi menteMe esfuerzo por desaprenderRecorro el camino inversoBusco el origen…Busco algo ahí fuera…

Si quieres vermeVas a tener que venirA unos lugares que no puedo describirAbrí una puerta que se cerró tras de míY no me duelen los amigos que perdí

Si quieres vermeVas a tener que asumirQue hay ciertas cosas que me alejaran de tiAbrí una puerta que se cerró cuando huiY he olvidado a los amigos que perdí

The friends I lost

I went out looking for the lost timeFollowing the trail of dawnAnd I joined people with no measureThat no one really wants to meet

A crazy man gave me classes of strychnine*A writer talked me about Maldoror*A judge acquitted me of my routineAnd a flower removed my pain

If you wanna see meYou're gonna have to exploreThose deserts I can't abandonI opened a door that closed behind meAnd they don't hurt, the friends I lost.

I specialized in suicide nightsJust the day I met herAnd I mistook windmills for giantsAfter a week without sleep

If you wanna see meYou're gonna have to exploreThose deserts I can't abandonI opened a door that closed behind meAnd they don't hurt, the friends I lost.

Fear is a sharp knifeRevenge is a stucked arrowThere's nothing more useless than hateThere's nothing more painful than rancor

I try to get out of my mindI strive to unlearnI walk the other wayI look for the originI look for something out there

If you wanna see meYou're gonna have to comeTo some places I can't describeI opened a door that closed behind meAnd they don't hurt, the friends I lost.

If you wanna see meYou're gonna have to acceptThat there are certain things that will take me away from youI opened a door that closed when I ran awayAnd I've forgotten the friends I lost
