Jirafa Ardiendo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Quién va a creer que sin ti
ya me apuntarán y me rompe la ferocidad
ella es hambre y tú también
Te caes del sol, ya siento el dolor, sigue sonriendo.
Gente en la piel que me inunda
y no van a ver que si pierdo
ya no hay que ganar y si miento no habrá nadie,
no habrá nadie ya, que te abrace bien

y te haga saltar.
Que te incendie en el mar
que te incendie en el mar
y mis alas se irán, sólo queda mirar.
Alguien me vio
son colores en tus manos cien
y sin nada te veo salir
y despierto y es igual,
es igual

Enseña que aún estás en mí
Que te incendie en el mar...
