Indios
If only, one day...
I could have back all the gold I gave away
From the one who convinced me it was proof of friendship
To take everything, even what I didn't have.
If only, one day...
I'd be able to explain what no one can understand:
What is going to happen is still to come,
And the future is not like what it used to be.
If only, one day...
Show who has more than what they need always convince themselves for not having enough,
And say so much for not having anything to say.
If only, one day...
The most simplistic things was seemed as the most important
But they gave us a mirror
And we saw a gruesome world.
If only, one day...
We could understand how can one God at the same time be three
And this same God died for you.
It's only hate then, will let a God so sad.
I wanted jeopardy and bled by myself,
Please, understand it was the only way to bring you back to me.
When I finally understood it's only you,
Who understands me from the beginning to end.
It's only you who has the cure of my addiction,
Of everything I haven't seen.
If only, one day...
Believe in everything that exists.
Believe the world is perfect,
And all people are happy.
If only, one day...
Tell the world your name is everywhere,
And even though no one will thank you.
If only, one day...
Like the most beautiful tribes,
Of the most beautiful Indians,
Not be assassinated for being innocent.
I wanted jeopardy and bled by myself,
Please, understand it was the only way to bring you back to me.
When I finally understood it's only you,
Who understands me from the beginning to end.
It's only you who has the cure of my addiction,
Of everything I haven't seen.
They gave us a mirror,
And we saw a sick world.
I tried to cry,
But I couldn't
