Maybe life is a song.
I don't want to be scared to sing along.

"...y sí, te explico, lo hacemos por simple rebeldía, por detestar la imagen que creamos, porque la tradición prohibitiva nos pesa demasiado sobre los hombros..."

Qué sé yo si me sirve

La esperanza tan dulce
tan pulida tan triste
la promesa tan leve
no me sirve

no me sirve tan mansa
la esperanza

la rabia tan sumisa
tan débil tan humilde
el furor tan prudente
no me sirve

no me sirve tan sabia
tanta rabia

el grito tan exacto
si el tiempo lo permite
alarido tan pulcro
no me sirve

no me sirve tan bueno
tanto trueno

el coraje tan dócil
la bravura tan chirle
la intrepidez tan lenta
no me sirve

no me sirve tan fría
la osadía

si me sirve la vida
que es vida hasta morirse
el corazón alerta
si me sirve

me sirve cuando avanza
la confianza

me sirve tu mirada
que es generosa y firme
y tu silencio franco
si me sirve

me sirve la medida
de tu vida

me sirve tu futuro
que es un presente libre
y tu lucha de siempre
si me sirve

me sirve tu batalla
sin medalla

me sirve la modestia
de tu orgullo posible
y tu mano segura
si me sirve

me sirve tu sendero
compañero.


Me sirve y no me sirve

Tell me what you find when...

On the corner of main street
Just tryin' to keep it in line
You say you wanna move on and
You say I'm falling behind

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

I never really gave up on
Breakin' out of this two-star town
I got the green light,
I got a little fight
I'm gonna turn this thing around

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The good old days, the honest man;
The restless heart, the Promised Land,
A subtle kiss that no one sees;
A broken wrist and a big trapeze

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you go, can you read my mind?

It’s funny how you just break down,
Waitin' on some sign
I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soakin' my spine

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The teenage queen, the loaded gun;
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One,
A southern drawl, a world unseen;
A city wall and a trampoline

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you jump,
tell me what you find when you read my mind

Slippin’ in my faith until I fall
You never returned that call
Woman, open the door, don't let it sting
I wanna breathe that fire again

She said I don't mind, if you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine.
Put your back on me,
Put your back on me,
Put your back on me

The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
Can you read my mind?


Read my mind
The killers
