Tu cárcel [English translation]

You're leaving, love.

If that's what you want, what can I do?

Your arrogance won't let you see

that you can learn to love in poverty.

I want to cry and it devastates me that you think this way,

and even more so now that you're not with me,

it hurts me to know of the suffering you'll endure.

But remember that no one is perfect and you'll see it for yourself,

you might obtain a thousand better things

but genuine love — you'll never have it.

So forget about what you're leaving behind today and what

you're exchanging it for — an adventure, that you'll soon see

will become your prison and you'll never get out.
