I hate you,
I want you.
I can read these words
from your pose.
You on the white sheet
you're like a woman
but you don't want to be a woman
and me not to be a man.
A fleet of black cars you are, and endless
Like in books that only tell the other version
I shall never bow to the purple
I shall never confess that I want and I can't go
(refrain):
I am yours
If you wish so
I am yours,
Like your heart;
impetuous, raging.
If you want
I am yours.
(2x)
I want you,
I want to hate you.
The beast with two backs
Razes the night.
Time and space are forgotten
as are the leather covers and guilt
and on our faces
only persistence of memory
Did I build you up only to fall?
I seek for the truth that tells of us.
The colours of the retable that we so tried to capture
fade away, and in tears ends this saga.
(refrain)
Recall the anima of dreams
How they can speak
How the golden-masked
Yet comes
(refrain)
