Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A forest burns, you ask for me to save you
But I'm running out of time
As the years go passing by, I realized
You're killing us both
[Verse 2]
Watch it all slip away
(Por fin se va a acabar)
Or leave a garden for your kids to play
(Jamás van a alcanzar)
A gift given by the stars
(Por fin se va a acabar)
You can build me up or you can rip me apart
(Jamás van a alcanzar)
[Verse 3]
You can build me up or you can rip me apart
You can build me up or you can rip me apart
[Verse 4]
How could they have done to you, my dear
What no one else could ever withstand?
Bound by so many, many, many hands
An open sore covered in sand
[Verse 5]
I will follow you, my dear
Till the oceans drown us both
[Verse 6]
Watch it all slip away
(Por fin se va a acabar)
No garden for your kids to play
(Jamás van a alcanzar)
A gift given by the stars
(Por fin se va a acabar)
You can build me up or you can rip me apart
(Jamás van a alcanzar)
[Verse 7]
It's been coming, such a long time coming
All the ages calling, whispering so softly
We were deaf until now
We were deaf until now
We were deaf until now
We were deaf until now
(You can build me up or you can rip me apart)
[Verse 8]
We were deaf until now
We were deaf until now
(You can build me up or you can rip me apart)
We were deaf until now
We were deaf until now
(You can build me up or you can rip me apart)
