Checkmate / Jaque Mate
It's not because I lied to you that you should not believe me now,
I knew that I was dancing in the face of a pending catastrophe.
I don't believe in this love anymore, but I long for it just the same.
Like hood-wind believers who still make offerings,
Kisses and carreses I gave to others
For all the gold I stole from us.
Cuando te fujiste, me dijiste (when you left, you said)
No podemos ser felices, (we can't be happy)
Amaneci cansada y triste (I woke up tired and sad)
Mira mi vida, l'amor, y esta nostra historia. (Here's my life, the love and our history)
Sono nuestra fe no volvera. (just our faith is not coming back)
They say the eyes are the windows on the soul
Don't close yours, because it hurts my dear
We despise what we have built
We made our lives a pot-lap ceremony
Who gave more, who took less
There is no death in the game of chess,
Just a wounded queen and an injured king who have lost their dreams.
Hoy soy mas fuerte, (today I am stronger)
Cher que te vuelvo aver (I want to see you again)
Bajo el quiso de otra mujer (take down the love of the other woman)
Creo que voy a lo que se. (I think i want whatever)
