Lyrics
enfermo llege
y para componerme
and de vago
no me des tu obedencia
porque te enseño mi cuerpo de lodo
donde el piel estubo debil
con una hambre que no me deje cantar
en me vida
el oscuro me mantiene
cuando yo te vi
en la lluvia me
prometiste tu sangre
yo no me quedo
ya que calle de este mundo
cargo un navaja dios mio para ti
cuantas veses me mordiste
y cuantas veses yo me fui
ya no estoy enamorado
con tus mentiras
pa el infierno me duermo
porque el infierno es la unica verdad
en mi vida
el oscuro me mantiene
cuando yo te vi
en la lluvia me
prometiste tu sangre yo no me quedo
estrella de la mañana
samael te persigo a ti
y si me quemo sin alas
ademas me muero por ti
