Encantador, un seductor
Charming, a seducer
Era el maleante más cabrón
He was the most badass criminal
Me conquistó, ni me enteré
He conquered me, I didn't even notice
Él se llevó mi primera vez
He took my first time away
Y prometió me iba a cuidar
And promised he would take care of me
Esa era su arma más letal
That was his deadliest weapon
Su protección irracional
His irrational protection
No me dejaba ni respirar
He wouldn't even let me breathe
Su amor se volvió castigo
His love turned into punishment
Y yo soñaba con mi libertad
And I dreamed of my freedom
Miedo es lo que yo sentía
Fear is what I felt
Mi corazón se moría
My heart was dying
Él se robó lo mejor de mí
He stole the best of me
El gran señor de la cobardía
The great lord of cowardice
Me fui quedando en soledad
I found myself in solitude
Viviendo con un criminal
Living with a criminal
Llegué a pensar que no valía
I came to think that I was worthless
Y aunque me gritaba "puta"
And even though he shouted 'whore' at me
Sabía lo que tenía
He knew what he had
Pero no hay mal que dure cien años
But no evil lasts a hundred years
Ni tonta que lo resista
Not a fool who would endure it
Miedo es lo que yo sentía
Fear is what I felt
Mi corazón se moría
My heart was dying
Él se robó lo mejor de mí
He stole the best of me
El gran señor de la cobardía
The great lord of cowardice
Vas a pagar, quién lo diría
You're going to pay, who would have thought
El gran señor de la cobardía
The great lord of cowardice
