Description
The world holds its breath in anticipation, like before a breath at a concert, when the first note hasn't been played yet, but it's already clear something is about to happen. Everything inside vibrates in unison with this feeling: as if my heart remembered why it beats in the first place. The song is not about suffering or faith, but a quiet acceptance of fate, where even pain becomes part of some kind of bright miracle. Each word sounds like an admission without an addressee: just a shout from the crowd that suddenly turns into a song. It embraces, comforts, stings a little, and leaves a strange feeling, as if someone has lifted a weight from your shoulders but didn't ask permission. And while everything around watches, judges, saves, and lies, one simple feeling remains inside: to wait, because it seems you were born for such a meeting.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Nací para esperar a que existieras tú y fueras a bajar mi cuerpo de la cruz.
Y empiezas a cantar y mi mejor virtud es que encontré tu hogar entre la multitud.
No tengo palabras, oigo tu voz hasta cuando te callas.
Y cuando llegue el momento, serás más libre que yo.
Nací para esperar a que existieras tú y fueras a bajar mi cuerpo de la cruz.
Y empiezas a cantar y mi mejor virtud es que encontré tu hogar entre la multitud.
Y el músculo entero, latiendo como en su día de estreno.
Los afortunados que se rodean de ti.
Nací para esperar a que existieras tú y fueras a bajar mi cuerpo de la cruz.
Y empiezas a cantar y mi mejor virtud es que encontré tu hogar entre la multitud.
Cuando nos calman, cuando nos duele.
Gente mirando, gente mirando.
Cuando nos salvan, cuando no pueden.
Cuando nos dejan, cuando nos mienten.
Gente mirando, gente mirando.
Cuando nos matan, cuando nos quieren.
English translation
I was born to wait for you to exist and to take my body down from the cross.
And you start singing and my best virtue is that I found your home in the crowd.
I have no words, I hear your voice even when you shut up.
And when the time comes, you will be freer than me.
I was born to wait for you to exist and to take my body down from the cross.
And you start singing and my best virtue is that I found your home in the crowd.
And the entire muscle, pulsating like on its opening day.
The lucky ones who surround themselves with you.
I was born to wait for you to exist and to take my body down from the cross.
And you start singing and my best virtue is that I found your home in the crowd.
When they calm us, when it hurts us.
People watching, people watching.
When they save us, when they can't.
When they leave us, when they lie to us.
People watching, people watching.
When they kill us, when they love us.
