Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics
I often wonder why I sit and wait to dieA menudo me pregunto por qué me siento y espero morir
What have I done to justify the sentence they gave?¿Qué he hecho para justificar la sentencia que me dieron?
Too many hours spent in darkness questioningDemasiadas horas pasadas en la oscuridad cuestionando
How and why?¿Cómo y por qué?
I can't remember many moments in the lightNo puedo recordar muchos momentos en la luz
This retribution has defiled me to no endEsta retribución me ha deshonrado sin fin
An execution without merit looms aheadUna ejecución sin mérito se cierne sobre mí
Tell me why?¡Dime por qué?
I was a boy who had to live his own wayEra un chico que tenía que vivir a su manera
I never fit into the model they had designedNunca encajé en el modelo que habían diseñado
I chose a path less takenElegí un camino menos transitado
I stood with others who had often felt the sameMe paré con otros que a menudo se habían sentido igual
We garnered stares from passers byAtraíamos miradas de los transeúntes
Our dark attire seemed to frighten people awayNuestro atuendo oscuro parecía asustar a la gente
And when the three young boys diedY cuando los tres jóvenes murieron
They pointed fingers and entangled us in a lieSeñalaron con el dedo y nos enredaron en una mentira
With no hope in sightSin esperanza a la vista
I sit here terrifiedAquí me siento aterrorizado
(Terrified, terrified)(Aterrorizado, aterrorizado)
Won't someone try to bring the truth to light?¿Alguien intentará sacar la verdad a la luz?
(Bring it to light, bring it to light)(Revelarla, revelarla)
Won't anybody open up their eyes¿Alguien abrirá los ojos?
(Open your eyes, open your eyes)(Ábrelos, ábrelos)
Before the three of us have lost our lives?¿Antes de que los tres hayamos perdido nuestras vidas?
Why was everybody so damn afraid?¿Por qué todos estaban tan malditamente asustados?
They blamed the devil for the heinousness of the crimeCulparon al diablo por la atrocidad del crimen
To justify their own faithPara justificar su propia fe
We were labeled pawns of Satan for a timeFuimos etiquetados como peones de Satanás por un tiempo
The three of us were attacked and disgracedLos tres fuimos atacados y deshonrados
For many hours we were questioned and so malignedDurante muchas horas nos interrogaron y difamaron
One of us couldn't take itUno de nosotros no pudo soportarlo
His simple manner was manipulated in kindSu simple manera fue manipulada de igual manera
Fear made him lieEl miedo lo hizo mentir
Now I sit here terrifiedAhora estoy aterrorizado
(Terrified, terrified)(Aterrorizado, aterrorizado)
Can't someone try to bring the truth to light?¿Alguien intentará sacar la verdad a la luz?
(Bring it to light, bring it to light)(Revelarla, revelarla)
Won't anybody open up their eyes¿Alguien abrirá los ojos?
(Open your eyes, open your eyes)(Ábrelos, ábrelos)
Before the three of us have lost our lives?¿Antes de que los tres hayamos perdido nuestras vidas?
[Guitar Solo][Solo de guitarra]
Now I am terrifiedAhora estoy aterrorizado
(Terrified, terrified, terrified)(Aterrorizado, aterrorizado, aterrorizado)
Can someone try to bring the truth to light?¿Alguien intentará sacar la verdad a la luz?
(Bring it to light, bring it to light)(Revelarla, revelarla)
Won't anybody open up their eyes¿Alguien abrirá los ojos?
(Open your eyes, open your eyes)(Ábrelos, ábrelos)
Before the three of us have lost our lives?¿Antes de que los tres hayamos perdido nuestras vidas?
And whyY ¿por qué?
(Tell me why, tell me why)(Dime por qué, dime por qué)
Can't anybody see through their disguise?¿Por qué nadie puede ver a través de su disfraz?
(Through the disguise, Through the disguise)(A través del disfraz, a través del disfraz)
Won't they believe we didn't take their lives?¿No creerán que no les quitamos la vida?
(Taken their lives, taken their lives)(No les quitamos la vida, no les quitamos la vida)
And now the three of us have lost our livesY ahora los tres hemos perdido nuestras vidas
I often wonder why I sit and wait to dieA menudo me pregunto por qué me siento y espero morir
What have I done to justify the sentence they gave?¿Qué he hecho para justificar la sentencia que me dieron?
Too many hours spent in darkness questioningDemasiadas horas pasadas en la oscuridad cuestionando
How and why?¿Cómo y por qué?
I can't remember many moments in the lightNo puedo recordar muchos momentos en la luz
This retribution has defiled me to no endEsta retribución me ha deshonrado sin fin
An execution without merit looms aheadUna ejecución sin mérito se cierne sobre mí
Tell me why?¡Dime por qué?
