Soy exactamente lo que no mereces
I am exactly what you don't deserve
Haría un puente hasta Plutón con mis defectos
I would build a bridge to Pluto with my flaws
He cometido el mismo error 500 veces
I've made the same mistake 500 times
Y estoy a 100 años luz de ser perfecto
And I'm 100 light years away from being perfect
Ya he burlado a los fantasmas del infierno
I've already mocked the ghosts of hell
Nadie me vendrá a contar como es la vida
No one will come tell me what life is like
Sé como apagar un fuego con invierno
I know how to put out a fire with winter
Y eso de portarme mal voy de salida
And this bad behavior is just me heading out
Yo podría decirte todo lo que quieres
I could tell you everything you want
Disfrazarme del tipo que andas buscando
Disguise myself as the guy you've been searching for
Pero si te hago una casa sin paredes
But if I build you a house without walls
A la primer brisa del mar saldrías volando
At the first sea breeze, you would take flight
Piénsalo
Think about it
Antes de decir que no
Before you say no
Puede que no sea tan malo estar conmigo
It may not be so bad being with me
Piénsalo
Think about it
Puede que sea yo
It could be me
Lo mejor de lo peor que has conocido
The best of the worst you've ever known
Solo queda suplicar algún milagro
All that's left is to plead for some miracle
Después de auto-flagelarme en adjetivos
After I punish myself with adjectives
Si me das lo que te sobra me consagro
If you give me what you have left, I’ll dedicate myself to you
Y ahí es donde empezaría lo divertido
And that's where the fun would begin
Yo podría contarte historias cenicientas
I could tell you Cinderella stories
Apelar el punto bajo en tu autoestima
Appeal to the low point in your self-esteem
Pero el tiempo algún día nos pasaría la cuenta
But time would someday come to settle the score with us
Un remedio de mi propia medicina
A remedy of my own medicine
Piénsalo
Think about it
Antes de decir que no
Before saying no
Puede que no sea tan malo estar conmigo
Maybe it's not so bad being with me
Piénsalo
Think about it
Puede que sea yo
It might be me
Lo mejor de lo peor que has conocido
The best of the worst you've ever known
Piénsalo
Think about it
Antes de decir que no
Before you say no
Puede que no sea tan malo estar conmigo
It might not be so bad to be with me
Piénsalo
Think about it
Puede que sea yo
It might be me
Lo mejor de lo peor que has conocido
The best of the worst you've ever known
Piénsalo
Think about it
Antes de decir que no
Before you say no
Puede que no sea tan malo estar conmigo
It might not be so bad to be with me
Piénsalo
Think about it
Puede que sea yo
It could be me
Lo mejor de lo peor que has conocido
The best of the worst you've ever known
