Isla.

Stuck on an island,
I am,
staring at the sky,
counting grains of sand.

En la isla del olvido,
yo estoy,
rezando al cielo,
con arena entre mis pies.

El mar es la musica,
aqui,
esperando tu sonido,
alli.

Night falls on me,
dark,
time to make a fire,
surrounded...
sharks.

Someone send me smoke signals,
please,
tell me she's okay--
Sis?

Dime, cuentame todo,
cuando puedo verla,
ella.

Is this enough,
paid dues?
Walk a mile in her shoes.

Let me out,
I need her flame,
her fire's warmth,
mine's without.

---

Cuento los minutos,
solo,
cuento los granos de arena,
todo.

Then her fire lights my way,
off the island,
I want her to stay.

Pero cada uno con su turno,
justo,
nuevas reglas,
sino es injusto.

Close your eyes,
dime,
cuando regreso,
in time.

So I'll leave you a gift,
porque te amo,
until next we speak,
I return to sand,
como un grano.
