Hoy voy a salir
Today I'm going to go out
Hoy voy a olvidar
Today I'm going to forget
Hoy voy a buscar
Today I'm going to search
Un lugar para quedarme
For a place to stay
Hoy voy a escapar
Today I'm going to escape
No voy a mirar
I'm not going to look back
Tus ojos ya son de mercurio y no me salvan
Your eyes are already like mercury and can't save me
Estoy tan lejos del sol
I'm so far from the sun
Y tan sola en mi dolor
And so alone in my pain
Ya no vengas a buscarme
Don't come looking for me anymore
Me voy a jugar
I'm going to play
Me voy a reír
I'm going to laugh
Me voy a dejar una lágrima en la sangre
I'm going to leave a tear in the blood
Estoy tan lejos del sol
I'm so far from the sun
Y tan sola en mi dolor
And so alone in my pain
Ya no vengas a buscarme
Don't come looking for me anymore
Pero no quiero existir con vos
But I don't want to exist with you
Ya no puedo existir con vos
I can no longer exist with you
Existir sin
To exist without
Existir
To exist
