No puede defenderte de
La trampa del tiempo esta vez
Eramos cachorros sueltos y
Fuiste cercando la reja y así nunca mas
Que voy a hacer te deje ir
Que voy a hacer solo morir
Donde quedo tu sabor
Se seco el sueño de ser invisibles
Tan chico como una hormiga y ver
Arboles como montañas y ser siempre así
Que voy a hacer te deje ir
Que voy a hacer solo morir
