Te aprovechas [English translation]

I am the shadow of your life

You lift me up and throw me away

I follow you and you step on me

Without ever noticing me

I always drink from your hand

Like a servant in your flock

And I hate you and I love you

Very much in spite of myself

I don't look for persons to blame, I'm the one

Because, when you call me, I'm always

Ready for anything

And you take advantage

Because you know that I love you

At the sound of your fingers

I am at your command

And you take advantage

Because you know that, even if I want to

I will never be outside

The glass of your prison

And you leave me

And you have me when you want

You pursue me and hurt me

I am your prey, hunter

You tear me apart

And you wrap me around your little finger1

And you control my anger

By your law and conviction

Ay, ay, ay

Ay, ay, ay

Ay, ay, ay
