Vivir sin ti es posible
Living without you is possible
Sin mayor dificultad
Without much difficulty
Vivo porque me despierto
I live because I wake up
Como salgo y duermo porque juego al dominó
I go out and sleep because I play dominoes
Porque ha dicho mi doctor
Because my doctor has said
Después de tomarme el pulso
After checking my pulse
Que mis signos vitales
That my vital signs
Anuncian que estoy vivo
Announce that I'm alive
Vivo porque aún respiro
I live because I still breathe
Y porque salgo a caminar
And because I go out for a walk
Vivo porque así es la vida
I live because that's how life is
Aunque hay que mencionar
Although I must mention
Que vivir no es estar vivo
That living isn't just being alive
Vivir pa mí eres tú
To live for me is you
Vivir sin ti es posible
Living without you is possible
Sin mayor dificultad
Without any major difficulty
Vivo porque tengo un nombre, un número de cuenta
I live because I have a name, an account number
Y mi carnet electoral
And my electoral card
Vivo porque así le llaman a ese combustible absurdo
I live because that's what they call that absurd fuel
De moverse por ahí
To move around out there
Vivo como lo hacen todos
I live like everyone else does
Vivo porque algunos creen que es abrir los ojos
I live because some believe it's about opening eyes
Vivo, aunque me muero a diario
I live, even though I die daily
Porque tú ya no estás
Because you're not here anymore
Y vivir no es estar vivo
And living isn't just being alive
Vivir pa mí eres tú
Living for me is you
Vivo
I live
Sin ningún problema
Without any problem
Aunque cada instante
Although every moment
Muere sin valer la pena
Dies without being worth it
Vivo
I live
Porque sobrevivo
Because I survive
Porque aunque no quiera
Because even if I don't want to
Tengo que cargar conmigo
I have to carry it with me
Vivo, aunque le tengo miedo
I live, even though I'm afraid
A vivir muriendo o a morir
Of living while dying or dying
En vida

Vivir sin ti es posible
Living without you is possible
Sin mayor dificultad
Without much difficulty
Vivo porque se hace fácil respirar el aire
I live because it's easy to breathe the air
Y devolver las sobras
And return the leftovers
Vivo porque no hay manera
I live because there's no way
De negar que existo
To deny that I exist
Por ponerle un nombre
For giving it a name
Vivo por inercia absurda
I live out of absurd inertia
Vivo, aunque no tengo ganas de añadirme a todos
I live, even though I don't feel like joining everyone
Vivo aunque me muero a diario
I live even though I die daily
Porque tú ya no estás
Because you are no longer here
Y vivir no es estar vivo
And living isn't just being alive
Vivir pa mí eres tú
To me, living is you
Vivo

Sin ningún problema
