I built a crystal palace
with pieces of haste and absences.
I painted around me
a security perimeter
to be safe from your influence.
Surrounded by light
one learns to be
what the pack expects.
To be a being
that doesn't want to bite,
I had to get away from my claws.
You are water;
it's useless to try to get away from you.
You flood and you obliterate.
You are water;
it's useless to try to get away from you.
The thirst doesn't rest.
I drew
a postcard face,
like someone who retires to a cave.
In case I saw you again,
I hid my animal;
don't get carried away by the tide.
After months without seeing the sun,
I went for a walk;
that the smell of salt gave me the answer.
You belong to this place;
stop crying;
you have already arrived;
stop searching.
You are water;
it's useless to run away from you.
You flood and you obliterate.
You are water;
it's useless to try to get away from you.
The thirst doesn't rest.
Only the brave know that it's useless
to fight the storm.
(You are water;
it's useless to run away from you.
You flood and you obliterate)
