La vida al revés [English translation]

Opening the window, hanging the problems out to dry

swimming on the streets talking about you

fixating on the rain and drinking a new song.

Playing cards using your cards of love

painting the roofs the color of solitude

sending an email to the moon and the moon replies no.

Life backwards, you see what it is

and while I have you on my mind

always thinking about you, counting to three

and not ever knowing what's happening

Life backwards, thinking with my feet

and while dancing with ideas

laughing for you, crying just because

being in a mess that you can't see

Life backwards... life backwards...

Calling your house, and your house never existed

I look at myself in the mirror and I'm not there

speaking with park benches and throwing a message into the sea

Sleeping face down hanging by a gas balloon

in the middle of summer and it starts to snow

and always with you on my mind in a demented world, you see
