By the time that we woke up, We couldn’t stop the sparks, We couldn’t see outside, When the curtains fell apart. We couldn’t hear the books When the pages curled away. We should shut that window we both left open now. We lost our chance to run, Now the door’s too hot to touch. We should hold our breaths with mouths together now.

Para el tiempo que despertamos No pudimos parar las chispas No pudimos ver afuera Cuando las cortinas se cayeron No pudimos escuchar los libros Cuando las paginas se curvearon Deberíamos de cerrar esa ventana que dejamos abierta Perdimos nuestra chance de correr Ahora las puertas están demasiado calientes para tocarlas Deberíamos de aguantar la respiración con nuestros bocas juntas ahora
