Lyrics
En tu cuarto de Vista Alegre, bajo el sol de enero,
la humedad todavía muerde el clavijero.
Le saca óxido a la prima de tu viejo tres,
la misma cicatriz que me dejaste aquella vez.
[Chorus]
Dicen que ganaste, hermano, que rompiste el muro.
Pero aquí tu victoria sabe a salitre y a futuro mudo.
Dicen que ganaste, hermano, qué tremenda suerte.
Pero yo solo abrazo este silencio de muerte.
[Verse 2]
Ayer a las tres, la tía Caridad brindó con ron.
Dijo, "¡Por el campeón que se escapó de este paredón!"
Todos aplaudieron, levantaron el vaso lleno.
El aire olía a lechón asado y a veneno.
[Chorus]
Dicen que ganaste, hermano, que rompiste el muro.
Pero aquí tu victoria sabe a salitre y a futuro mudo.
Dicen que ganaste, hermano, qué tremenda suerte.
Pero yo solo abrazo este silencio de muerte.
[Bridge]
Levantaste tu casa con vigas de ausencia y prisa,
y dejaste el cimiento con esta grieta de ceniza.
[Outro]
Y el polvo sigue aquí...
sigue cayendo...
