lyrics

(English below)

Crecí pensando que mis referentes tenían la respuesta
Ahora sé que no las tienen, nadie lo hace porque no las hay
¿Acaso es esto madurar?
Tratar de darle sentido a mi existencia, encontrar algún amarre
Y me busco en un poema, tal vez en el placer
Tal vez en dejar constancia del sentir y el padecer
Que yo también estuve aquí, quise y fui querido
¿Es la prueba de la vida más valiosa que la vida en sí?

Si un árbol cae sin testigos no hace ruido
Si vivo sin testigos tal vez no he vivido, ¿no?

¿A qué puedo encomendarme? ¿A qué agarrarme?
¿Tal vez a intentar hacer del mundo algo mejor?
¿De qué sirven las canciones? ¿Soy un tipo egoísta?
¿Es el relato que me cuento una mentira más?
Son las seis de la mañana, no puedo descansar
Me hace compañía un pensamiento circular
Solo tengo una certeza: no hay ningún relato
El único relato es que no hay ningún relato

Si un árbol cae sin testigos no hace ruido
Si vivo sin testigos tal vez no he vivido, ¿no?

Nunca sentí la soledad de manera tan profunda
Como al volverme a situar frente a estas preguntas
Y si todo son ficciones, solo eso
El bien, el mal, el amor y todo eso
A la sombra del cinismo tal vez ya no se está tan mal
Tras la ventana ya empieza a salir el sol

El único relato es que no hay ningún relato

//

A Tale

I grew up thinking that my mentors had the answer
Now I know they don't, nobody does because there is not
Is this growing up?
To try to make sense of my existence, to find something to attach to
And I look for myself in a poem, perhaps in pleasure
Perhaps in registering feeling and enduring
That I was here too, I loved and was loved
Is proof of life more valuable than life itself?

If a tree falls without witnesses it makes no noise
If I live without witnesses, perhaps I haven't lived, right?

What can I entrust myself to? What can I hold on to?
Maybe to try to make the world a better place?
What good are songs? Am I a selfish guy?
Is the tale I tell myself just another lie?
It's six in the morning, I can't find rest
A circular thought keeps me company
I only have one certainty: there is no tale
The only tale is that there is no tale

If a tree falls without witnesses it makes no noise
If I live without witnesses, perhaps I haven't lived, right?

I never felt loneliness as deeply
As when I turn myself back to these questions
And if everything is just a fiction
Good, evil, love and all that stuff
In the shadow of cynicism maybe it's not so bad anymore
Behind the window the sun starts to rise

The only tale is that there is no tale

about

Walking is still honest records Berlin, Germany

Walking is still honest records is a label/distro established in 2011 in Andalusia, (south Spain). D.I.Y. project created with the idea of supporting projects I feel an affinity and/or friendship with. Music matters to me as also attitude does it. This is a label that releases mainly Hardcore-Punk related stuff, but I’m interesting in some other genres too. This is a non-profit project ... more
