Muéstrame aquellos andamios,
Show me those scaffolds,
Que hay detrás de lo real,
That are behind what is real,
Eso es sólo una cara,
That's just one face,
De lo que llamamos realidad.
Of what we call reality.
¿Quién construye el escenario?,
Who builds the stage?,
Donde actuamos tú y yo,
Where we act, you and I,
Parece de cartón piedra,
It seems made of papier-mâché,
Mira como se cayó,
Look how it fell,
Mira como se resquebrajó...
Look how it cracked...
Muéstrame aquellos bocetos,
Show me those sketches,
El blueprint de la creación,
The blueprint of creation,
Que está todo conectado,
That everything is connected,
Se rumora que no somos dos,
It’s rumored that we’re not two,
Uno sólo somos tú y yo.
We are just one, you and I.
Se rumora que no somos dos,
It’s rumored that we’re not two,
Uno sólo somos tú y yo...
We are just one, you and I...
Y si me salgo...
And if I step out...
¿Qué pasará?,
What will happen?
Habrá regreso,
There will be a return,
A esta realidad,
To this reality,
A este lado de lo real...
On this side of the real...
A esta realidad,
To this reality,
A este lado de lo real...
On this side of the real...
