Traumas [English translation]

Once my father told me

I should never lie

But he also forgot

To tell me the truth

About the world's reality

That I would end up knowing

About the traumas that we only feel

After we grow up

Talked about the angels that I've met

In the delirium of the burning fever

Of my little body that suffered

Without understanding a thing

One night my wife

Seeing my shivering sleep

Said that nightmares are

Some sleeping problem

During the day we try

To disguise with smiles

Something that in our soul

We are able to suffocate

My father tried to fable

And decorate the things I used to see

But those angels are now gone

After I've grown up

From my now distant childhood

I've lost those angels in time

My dad used to feel what I feel now

After I've grown up

Now I know what my father

Tried to hide from me

Sometimes lies

Also help us to eat

Maybe someday I will also

Have to lie to my son

To decorate the ways

That he might one day follow

My father tried to fable

And decorate the things I used to see

But those angels are now gone

After I've grown up

From my now distant childhood

I've lost those angels in time

My dad used to feel

Used to feel what I feel now

After I've grown up

My father tried

Tried to fable...
