lyrics

A PANTASMA DO ESPELLO

A promesa do esquencemento
é a manifestación máis violenta da memoria.
Entre poder saber e esquencer
reside a vontade da memoria
A mesma promesa e violencia
do recordo que nos escolle.

COS PÉS AFUNDIDOS NA AREA
VEXO MARCHAR A AUGA MAR DENTRO
RETIRÁNDOSE Á ESPERA DE QUE O TSUNAMI
VEÑA VARRER OS MEUS RESTOS
NON CHEGUEI PEDINDO NADA, MAIS AGORA
QUE ME QUEDA?

ARRASTRAR A SOMBRA QUE SON POLOS MUROS BRANCOS
COA PUNTA DAS UNLLAS RASCANDO A PINTURA
VAN CAENDO OS RECORDOS COMA PEL MORTA
E DESFANSE AS PALABRAS DAS COSTURAS
SE O QUE NON SE NOMEA NON EXISTE,
QUE QUEDA DE MIN?

E FÓRA O TRENZADO DAS VOSAS VOCES SOA TAN LONXE
XA NON HAI CAMPOS DE TRIGO AO SOLPOR
NIN A BARRA DOS BEIZOS ME RECONCILIA
COA PANTASMA DO ESPELLO
QUE ME QUEDA SE NON ME RECOÑEZO?

QUIZAIS AS HORAS EN CALMA TRAIAN
UN NOME ENREDADO NO OLOR DO TEU PELO
SÓ ALGÚN RECORDO DA INFANCIA
A PRENDER UN BRILLO NOS OLLOS
MENTRES SE EXPANDE O XEO
COMO PLANICIE NO ÁRTICO
UN DESERTO, UN UNIVERSO, UN BALEIRO
