No, no intentes disculparte
No, don't try to apologize
No juegues a insistir
Don't play at insisting
Las excusas ya existían antes de ti
Excuses existed before you
No, no me mires como antes
No, don't look at me like before
No hables en plural
Don't speak in plural
La retórica es tu arma más letal
Rhetoric is your deadliest weapon
Voy a pedirte que no vuelvas más
I'm going to ask you not to come back anymore
Siento que me dueles todavía aquí adentro
I feel that you still hurt me right here inside
Y que a tu edad sepas bien lo que es
And at your age, you should know well what it is
Romperle el corazón a alguien así
To break someone's heart like that
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno
You can't live with so much poison
La esperanza que me da tu amor
The hope your love gave me
No me la dio más nadie
No one else gave it to me
Te juro, no miento
I swear, I'm not lying
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno
You can't live with so much poison
No se puede dedicar el alma a acumular intentos
You can't dedicate your soul to accumulating attempts
Pesa más la rabia que el cemento
Anger weighs more than concrete
Espero que no esperes que te espere después de mis 26
I hope you don't expect me to wait after my 26
La paciencia se me ha ido hasta los pies
Patience has left me even to my feet
Y voy deshojando margaritas y mirando sin mirar
And I’m plucking daisies and looking without seeing
Para ver si así te irritas y te vas
To see if that irritates you and you leave
Voy a pedirte que no vuelvas más
I'm going to ask you not to come back anymore
Siento que me dueles todavía aquí adentro
I feel that you still hurt me right here inside
Y que a tu edad sepas bien lo que es
And at your age, you should know well what it is
Romperle el corazón a alguien así
To break someone's heart like that
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno
You can't live with so much poison
La esperanza que me dio tu amor
The hope your love gave me
No me la dio más nadie
No one else gave it to me
Te juro, no miento
I swear, I'm not lying
No se puede morir con tanto veneno
You can't die with so much poison
No se puede dedicar el alma a acumular intentos
You can't dedicate your soul to accumulating attempts
Pesa más la rabia que el cemento
Anger weighs more than concrete
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno
You can't live with so much poison
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno
You can't live with so much poison
No, ooh, no
No
