Yo soy esa mujer
I am that woman
La que cuelga de la soga
The one hanging from the rope
Soy la mujer
I am the woman
Como el tequila y la droga
Like tequila and drugs
Yo soy esa mujer
I am that woman
Yo soy tu sobredosis
I am your overdose
Soy la mujer
I am the woman
De la que nada conoces
Of whom you know nothing
Yo soy la que te amó
I am the one who loved you
La que te perdonó
The one who forgave you
Antes de conocerte no sabía de dolor
Before I knew you, I didn't know pain
¡Ay!
Oh!
Qué pena me da saberte
What a shame it is to know you
Ahora estás solo y probablemente
Now you're alone and probably
Te va a durar y así acabarás
It'll last for you and this is how you'll end
¡Ay!
Oh!
Ayer, por fin, dejé de suicidarme
Yesterday, at last, I stopped trying to end it all
Ahora tus manos son las que derraman sangre
Now your hands are the ones spilling blood
Me enamoré de un pobre cobarde
I fell in love with a poor coward
Tú eres el hombre
You are the man
Que lo controla todo
That controls everything
Según tú
According to you
Todo se hace a tu modo
Everything is done your way
Tú eres el hombre
You are the man
El que arma y desarma
The one who builds and dismantles
No puedes ni contigo
You can't even handle yourself
Ni con tu ego, ni con nada
Not your ego, not anything
Yo soy la que te amó
I am the one who loved you
La que te perdonó
The one who forgave you
Antes de conocerte no sabía de dolor
Before I met you, I didn't know pain
¡Ay!
Oh!
Qué pena me da saberte
What a shame it makes me to know you
Ahora estás solo y probablemente
Now you're alone and probably
Te va a durar y así acabarás
It'll last for you and that's how you'll end
¡Ay!
Oh!
Ayer, por fin, dejé de suicidarme
Yesterday, finally, I stopped hurting myself
Ahora tus manos son las que derraman sangre
Now your hands are the ones spilling blood
Pobre de ti
Poor you
Adiós, triste cobarde
Goodbye, sad coward
