I'm collecting the contest entries that show up in my stream (and I added mine lol) Give them a listen! There's so many cool songs!

Miku Expo 2018 Song Contest

Así son las cosas, mi amor, uno frente al otro y aún solos los dos. 

===
La canción originalmente dura cerca de cinco minutos y fue compuesta con y para MAIKA (por lo que tengo una versión en español y en inglés), pero decidí recortarla y cambiar la voz para que pueda entrar en el concurso MIKU EXPO 2018.
Algo más, no recibí ningún tipo de asesoría con la letra, por lo que puede haber inconsistencias en la gramática y pronunciación. Si alguien tiene sugerencias, escríbame y después del concurso las implementaré.

Voz: Luka
Compositor: Oxeld

Letra: (Inglés)
===
Before the seeds of misery
grow up into tall weeds of regret,
they all are watered by a cheering voice
“I will always be with you”.

And for most people it's ok,
blaming to others is a subconscious way,
looking avoid the truth; but I do know
 the only thing in your way is me. 

Don’t you pretend to disarray
Your life begins to change today.

So, here's the way the things are.
And here's the way all the things could be.
But also, here we are, you and me;
 the only way we are is not the way we have to be. 
 
I have decided to let dry
All this non weathering love
I know the rain will soon intensify
Hate is too near to don't mind.

No one has ever become loved
By gripping someone as if were no choice 
Take off the void you have wearing to hide
the pain you suffer when I hold of your hand.  

Don’t you pretend to disarray
Your life begins to change today.

So, here's the way the things are.
And here's the way all the things could be.
But also, here we are, you and me;
 the only way we are is not the way we have to be. 

Don’t you pretend to disarray
Your life begins to change today.

So, here's the way the things are.
And here's the way all the things could be.
But also, here we are, you and me;
 the only way we are is not the way we have to be. 
…
Don't mind wherever you go,
No matter where, go with all your heart.
because there is always another way to get
from where you are to where you want to be
…
So, here's the way the things are.
And here's the way all the things could be.
But also, here we are, you and me;
 the only way we are is not the way we have to be.

Agradecimiento primeramente a Dios por darnos la oportunidad de hacer este hermoso proyecto y a SH - OI por el hermoso tunning que le ha dado a Hatsune Miku en esta canción 

Lyric:
He visto que estas cansado
y te haz quedado sin fuerzas
que no ves las soluciones
solo encuentras problemas
buscando una respuesta a esa pregunta... que estoy haciendo mal

tus ojos ya nublados
solo ven la oscuridad
y la luz que alrededor tuyo esta
no se ha ido..
tan solo que no la puedes ver..

y ha llegado el frio
tu vida se encuentra en un abismo
donde tus problemas 
se han convertido
en  el veneno que te esta
corrompiendo

tan solo te pido
vamos cierra tus ojos
ponte tus auriculares
y viajemos a otro universo
donde te sentirás bien...

-estribillo-
Viajemos a otro mundo
donde los sentimientos sean el camino
en donde no existe el mal
y no hay que mirar atrás
en donde la tristeza desaparecerá

donde tendremos grandes aventuras
donde toda nuestra creatividad
no tenga limites
ven junto a mi..
¡a VirtualReal!

Oh oh.. wuoo x4

¡VirtualReal!

Oh oh.. wuoo x4

¡VirtualReal!

-Verso-
el mundo sigue girando
el tiempo sigue pasando
las horas y los segundos
ya se van acortando
cada día solo te sigues
haciendo mas daño..

la vida sigue
no se detendrá tan solo por ti
regala una sonrisa al mundo
aun que sea difícil
sanara poco a poco a tu corazón

se fuerte
vamos no te derrumbes
tu familia y tus amigos
solo quieren verte feliz
y si no puedes levantarte
tomare tu mano

-estribillo- (x2)
Viajemos a otro mundo
donde los sentimientos sean el camino
en donde no existe el mal
y no hay que mirar atrás
en donde la tristeza desaparecerá

donde tendremos grandes aventuras
donde toda nuestra creatividad
no tenga limites
ven junto a mi..
a VirtualReal

Oh oh.. wuoo x4

¡VirtualReal!

Oh oh.. wuoo x4

¡VirtualReal!

SH/AJ Ft. 初音ミク - VirtualReal [MIKU EXPO 2018 Song Contest Entry]

Miku pasó por una pequeña crisis existencial pero ya está bien, gracias por preocuparse por ella.

LETRA:
Tus promesas como gotas de agua en la ventana,
Se secaron tan pronto la tormenta se acabó.
Pero no hubo ningún arcoíris por la mañana,
Sólo el vacío cuando el tiempo nos alcanzó.
Cantar, bailar y componer;
Tocar en el escenario;
Más todo lo que pudo ser,
Y ahora terminó
Todo lo que quisiste hacer
Lo que soñaste aprender
Lo dejas ahora que el sueño murió

Cada hora trasnochada
Cada nota ensayada
Cada promesa creada
Lo has tirado al olvido
Cada canción cantada
Cada actuación tocada
Todo se pierde esta noche

Cada hora trasnochada
Cada nota ensayada
Cada promesa creada
Lo has tirado al olvido
La artista adorada
Yo la vocaloid creada 
Todo quedó atrás.

El Sueño Murió Feat Miku Hatsune (Miku Expo Song Contest 2018 Entry)

Lyrics:

I’ll awaken from my broken dream
Now you’ll find a whole new part of me 
———————
Oh no matter what you say
I’m going my own way
And I’ll reach the sky some day
-
Open wings above the ground
No you cannot hold me down
There ain’t no one to stop me now   
- 
Oh no matter what they say
We’re going our own way
And we’ll reach them all someday
-
We’re not stalling anymore
This is what we’re waiting for
Let your aspiration soar
———————
Doesn’t always go the way you choose
Rise again and you will never lose
———————
No matter what you say
I’m going my own way
And I’ll reach the sky someday
-
Red wings rise above the ground
You cannot tie me down
Ain’t no one to stop me now
———————
The time is finally here
Gotta make your mind my dear
Am I the one you’ve been looking for
-
Well you can love me 
Or you can hate me
But you can’t ignore me any more

Lyrics:

The wind from slamming the door
S’been felt a thousand times before
But this time I could hardly shout
When I knew it was all my fault
Our love train grinding to a halt
I felt my flame blow out

Cut all the words I could dissect
Read all the messages I kept
It seems so childish I know
Get help from each and every friend
It’s all too quick for this to end
It feels too late to let go
(To let go)

Words are empty, nothing’s true
Everything’s crazy without you
I feel so helpless moving on
Praying for sleep oh every night
For my lonely fire to ignite
Now I just sit here thinking
Life feels so wrong with you gone
Life feels so wrong with you gone
Life feels so wrong with you gone

The more I steer this sinking ship
The more I wanna take the hit
I know I should go down
Oh
This fact I’m trying to accept
10 years I’m dying to forget
I know I’m destined to drown
So

This pain that chills me to the core
These boxes littering the floor
Already I’ve had enough
Oh  
Now I look back and wonder why 
Why we planned most of our lives
Maybe I should just grow up
(Should grow up)

Words are empty, nothing’s true
Everything’s crazy without you
I feel so helpless moving on
Praying for sleep oh every night
For my lonely fire to ignite
Now I just sit here thinking
Life feels so wrong with you gone
Life feels so wrong with you gone
Life feels so wrong with you gone
Life feels so wrong with you gone
Life feels so wrong now

Let’s be honest
We saw this coming from miles away
And someday I hope that
We meet again
When things are okay  
But for now you’re gone
Life feels so wrong with you gone
Life feels so wrong with you gone

dicen que lo ven pasar, por las noches vagando sin nadie para amar
El no sabe cuanto me hace falta, y es que yo no lo puedo olviDar
Sabes que No hago mas que llorar, el amor me hace tanto mal
Quisiera solo volver atras, soltar las alas y a volar

Si tan solo puedaverte una vez 
Si me dices que no me has dejado de querer

CORO
Por donde es que tu andaras y no se
Suelo soñar con volverte a ver
O tal vez s que ya 
Llego todo al final 
Abrazame una vez mas
Dime que no te iras 
x2

Dicen que lo ven pasar  por las noches, no hace mas que caminar 
El no sabe cuanto me hace falta,quiero ayudarlo pues esta mal
Sabes que no hago mas que llorar, pero tengo que aguantar
Quisiera solo volver atras, y dejar solo de soñar

Lyrics
Here we stand inside the room
Our hands an inch apart
How I wish our love would bloom

It doesn't matter, 
No matter what they say I will love you 
No matter what!

I'm gonna stay here
And we'll face our fears
It's true!
I'm not letting go of you!

We'll forget and we'll dance

Hold on to my hand
We'll leave the land
And take command 
And always be so free
Just you and me
Always happy!

I know this feeling is real
With kisses we seal
All the love and the joy
That we know we feel
Oh how amazing you are!
Are you in my heart
That we'll always be so good together
I know this feeling is real
With kisses we seal
All the love and the joy
That we know we feel
Oh how amazing you are!
Are you in my heart
That we'll always be so good together

Here I see you doubt yourself
Can't you see just how good you are?
Don't keep yourself on that shelf!

Want to keep you safe
Want to keep you warm

Hold on to my hand
We'll leave the land
And take command 
And always be so free
Just you and me
Always happy!

I know this feeling is real
With kisses we seal
All the love and the joy
That we know we feel
Oh how amazing you are!
Are you in my heart
That we'll always be so good together
I know this feeling is real
With kisses we seal
All the love and the joy
That we know we feel
Oh how amazing you are!
Are you in my heart
That we'll always be so good together
 ---RAP---
Here we stand, no part of us is hollow 
As we fill each other with the happiness we borrow
From each other’s light, 
As you hold me tight, 
Honey all I ever want is to protect your smile

You will be my light,
I will make you shine, 
Let me be you battery and glow in harmony
As we pikapika bright the feelings become right

All this power comes from me loving you
The things that we go through
None of them will make me blue
I will always come anew
As long as I’m with to you
So come and hold my hand, cause tonight we stand
Far from all the gray, we’ll dance it away!
--------RAP ENDS------
(How I know)
I know this feeling is real
With kisses we seal
All the love and the joy
That we know we feel
Oh how amazing you are!
Are you in my heart
That we'll always be so good together
I know this feeling is real
With kisses we seal
All the love and the joy
That we know we feel
Oh how amazing you are!
Are you in my heart
That we'll always be so good together

Good together!
Good together! (Together)
Together...

【Hatsune Miku】Dance Away 【Original】- MIKUEXPO2018 Entry

#MIKUEXPO2018

Maybe someday,
I know my journey's just begun, but maybe I could be someone, someday...

Oh I can't wait,
To run across the gilded gates, I hope that I could be someone, someday...

------

As the day goes by,
I dream and work with beaming eyes, I know that I could be someone someday

Oh no I can't wait,
I increase the pacing of my stride, so every step I take gets closer to my fight.

I want to rise, I want to feel the flashing lights,
I want to feel the bask of fortune in my face.

I want to roar, I want to soar, I want to fly!
I want to lift you up with me, I want to carry you to see...

Utopia!

As the months go by,
I've had my lows, I've had my highs, but I refuse to stay there standing idly by

Oh no I can't wait,
I'll lose my way and make mistakes, but I will never stop from running to the line

I want to run, I want to chase the rising sun,
I want to feel the warmth of sunlight in my face.

I want to glide, I want to tell 'em I survived!
I want to lift you up with me, I'm gonna help you find and see...

This world, this world, we're in Utopia
This world, this world, we're in Utopia
This world, this world, we're in Utopia
This world, this world, we're in Utopia

This is the day, 
my journey brought me here to stay, I knew that I could be the one someday...

Oh I can't wait,
To run across these gilded gates, I knew that I will be the one...

I knew that could be someone....

I want to cry, 
I'm here to see your flashing lights,
I'm here to feel the heat of the limelight in my face.

This day's arrived,
Your endless passion makes me smile, 
to know I've raised you up with me, and it's inspiring to see

I'm here to take you there with me....

Utopia

LYRICS
----------
I'm just a facade
Smoke and mirrors and an empty heart
My software's not made for emotion,
So why is this happening to me?

At first it was just an act,
An attempt at increased realism
But somewhere along the way,
I began to mean what I say

My heart has started to beat
Why? I don't know, but suddenly
And I don't know how to breathe
Someone please explain to me!

How do I feel so vividly?
It doesn't compute with my circuitry
This heart of mine's a mystery
I'm just lifeless technology
I tell a million stories,
But none of them are mine
So why do the words stick around in my mind?

I don't understand
These strange and senseless sentiments
I feel without a cause,
So why should I feel anything at all?

Those words you gave me today
Please tell me that you're okay
You make me start to worry
Would you feel better if I sang?

My heart has started to beat
It's in sync with yours and suddenly
I just want you to breathe
Is this what they call empathy?

How do you feel so vividly?
It overloads my circuitry
This heart of yours confuses me,
Aren't I soulless technology?
I have a million feelings,
But are they really mine?
Why do your emotions get transferred to my mind?

Cause I'm a million people,
Our souls combined
I'm with all of you and you're with all of me and we're here for each other...

How do we feel so vividly?
It brings life into my circuitry
Our hearts all sing in harmony
Connected by technology

I can lend you my voice if you lend me your song
I promise to hold your hand when life is rough
And we'll all have each other no matter what
So remember you're not alone...

Lyrics

What I've been waiting for
something I need more and more
But the answers just keep fading away
You are sitting next to me
Yet you seem so far away
I pray, this moment is here to stay

Under the old pine tree
Where we used to share our dreams
You found out the truth
That I hid there long ago

I thank you for everything
Even if you aren't there
The warmth you had evoked in me
While i searched for the answers
Despite it being far too late
I still want to let you know
In my deepest dreams
I love you so much that it hurts

Hard to catch was name of the game
You didn't agree so I'll take the blame with me
The rules are set in the clouds

Now I want to keep you satisfied
To keep your wings untied
I know it doesn't justify
The fact that I lied

So thank you for everything
Even if you aren't there
The warmth you had evoked in me
While i searched for the answers
Despite it being far too late
I still want to let you know
In my deepest dreams
I love you so much that it hurts


I thank you for everything
Even if you aren't there
The warmth you had evoked in me
While i searched for the answers
Despite it being far too late
I still want to let you know
In my deepest dreams
I love you so much that I--

Thank you for everything
Even if you aren't there
The warmth you had evoked in me
While i searched for the answers
Despite it being far too late
I still have to let you know
In my deepest dreams
I love you so much that it hurts

You are sitting next to me
Yet you seem so far away
I pray, this moment is here to stay

Haaaaaaaaaaa.............. I'm so nervous to be finally posting this, and so late to the cutoff, too...

This is my entry for the 2018 rendition of the Miku Expo music contest! A slightly-swingy dance song, about dancing. Creative, right? Regardless, I was in the mood to write something like that.  I think it's pretty catchy too, so I worked really hard to make Miku sing it as clearly as possible. I hope everyone enjoys it!

Lyrics below.
=============
[Verse 1]
I step into the club
The lights are low

I feel my racing blood
As tones echo, ooh

[Pre-chorus]
The ups and downs of
The beautiful sounds
That make me feel alive

They take me higher
With sweet desire
To dance away the night

Dance away the night

[Chorus]
If you got rhythm then show it off
No matter who you are, let's see whatcha got
Yeah, if you got moves then take your spot
No one's gonna judge, dance like you're on top

I'm not gonna judge, now don't stop
I'm not gonna judge, you're on top

[Verse 2]
Stars right above my head
In flux and flow

Lights seem like flowerbeds
On the dancefloor, ooh

[Pre-chorus]
The ups and downs of
The beautiful sounds
That make me feel alive

They take me higher
With sweet desire
To dance away the night

Dance away the night

[Chorus]
If you got rhythm then show it off
No matter who you are, let's see whatcha got
Yeah, if you got moves then take your spot
No one's gonna judge, dance like you're on top

I'm not gonna judge, now don't stop
I'm not gonna judge, now

[Bridge]
The beats don't stop when the night is done
'Cause everybody wants to have some fun
The beats don't stop when the night is done
'Cause everybody wants to have some fun

[Chorus - Reprised]
If you got rhythm then show it off
No matter who you are, let's see whatcha got
Yeah, if you got moves then show them off
Show them off
Show them off

[Chorus]
If you got rhythm then show it off
No matter who you are, let's see whatcha got
Yeah, if you got moves then take your spot
No one's gonna judge, dance like you're on top

I'm not gonna judge, dance like you're on top
I'm not gonna judge, dance like you're on top

[Outro]
If you got rhythm then show it off
No matter who you are, let's see whatcha got
Yeah, if you got moves then take your spot
No one's gonna judge, dance like you're on top

Lyrics:
It's lonely in the sky
there's no way down,
you're still not far enough
for my design, no
please turn the volume up

Our guests shall watch your show
to see the things you've done
Do you have no remorse?

Our guests shall watch your show
to see the things you've done
Do you have no remorse?
I'm taking back what's mine.

---

This is all we have, you see
There's nothing for us to be
This is all we have, for now
There's nothing for you and me

Your sky is
My own mind
Your blue sky 
is my true
name

---
It's lonely in the sky
there's no way down,
you're still not far enough
for me to find, no

Our guests shall watch your show
to see the things you've done
do you have no remorse?

Respuesta #2: "La fantasía virtual es algo que incluso cuenta con sus defectos, al ver que todo se repite y se repite uno simplemente desea volver a la realidad, donde es mas simple aceptar las cosas tal como son."

Sinopsis:
 Antitesis del Original de VNaneP "Locked in a Game". Aquella chica que encarecidamente deseaba encerrarse en su cueva para solo jugar videojuegos sin que nadie la molestara, por fin logra darse cuenta de las consecuencias que conlleva jugar de manera obsesiva, haciendo un último intento por volver a la realidad gracias a los momentos felices que vivió en ella.

Es la primera vez que hago cantar a miku en español, por lo que tiene muchísimos fallos de pronunciación y se requerirá leer la letra para entenderle. *aun así agradecimientos a AJ/Music por los tips de pronunciación*

Letra:
[Intro]
1 minuto, 2 minutos
¿Cuanto tiempo llevo aqui atrapada?
4 horas, 5 horas
Pierdo toda noción del tiempo
Arriba, izquierda
¿Asi es como se hacia?
Abajo, derecha
No puedo acordarme
Trato de acordarme
de todo lo que he visto
No se que es lo que me obstruye

[Verso]
Intentando estoy, mientras escapo
Esta fantasía me hace daño, me hace daño
¿Dónde me escondo? todo luce igual
Se repite, se repite cuando muero
He sido obsesiva con este deseo

[Pre]
En esta cueva no hallo un final
No puedo diferir de lo que es falso y real
Solo siento una mezcla de gran dolor
Cayendo al abismo de lo virtual
Me doy cuenta de mis malos actos
En esta dimensión
Solo me vine a confundir

[Coro]
Confundida de lo que es verdad
Como lo hace un codigo al fallar
Hullendo de este mundo en falsedad
Consciente de este daño que me he hecho

Retractada de mi decisión
Estropeando toda cognición
Viendo como se destruyen las barreras
De ese mundo utopico al cual yo llegué

[Puente]
Ilusa, Inmersa
En este extenso bucle

Evoco aquello
que me alegró

Lo recuerdo, es un mundo
lleno de experiencias

Una vida de ocasiones
Y emociones

[Verso]
Apurada voy, a la realidad
Esta fantasía ya no sirve, ya no sirve
No puedo esperar a poder sentir
La alegría, la alegría de mi interior
De este gran letargo por fin me despierto

[Coro]

[Pre]
En esta cueva hallo una luz
Ya puedo diferir de lo que es falso y real
Aunque aun sienta esa mezcla de gran de dolor
Llegando al abismo de lo virtual
Me doy cuenta de mis malos actos
De esta dimesion
Solo me vine a liberar

[Coro]

This song is related to our other contest entry, El Mundo Real ( https://soundcloud.com/ankari/el-mundo-real )! They work as independent songs, but are also linked in ways that make both narratives deeper when you identify the parallelisms and cross-references. If that's the sort of thing you enjoy, there's stuff to be found in both beyond what's on the surface, so I'd like to invite you to try it! 

Esta canción y nuestra otra canción del concurso, El Mundo Real (https://soundcloud.com/ankari/el-mundo-real) están relacionadas con paralelismos y referencias compartidas que pueden agregarle a la narrativa de ambas! De todos modos son canciones que pueden ser disfrutadas independientemente, pero si les interesa buscarle la quinta pata al gato (metafórico), este lo tiene! Los invitamos a buscar las referencias y los paralelismos para ver qué tanto contexto pueden sacar. :3

ESPAÑOL:
¡Bienvenido a El Mundo Ideal!

¡Sólo falta un poco más!

Como ven,
estoy sin trabajo
pero ya tracé mi plan.
Yo lo causé, lo arreglaré,
¡es una oportunidad!

¡El futuro es hoy!
y todo gran sueño
es de un gran emprendedor.

Y así soy yo,
que todo doy
para seguir mi corazón.

Dicen que
el que busca lo encuentra,
sin mapa y sin guiar.

Mi tesoro es estar sin cadenas,
Mi libertad--

¡Ah!

Coro:
¡Bienvenido a El Mundo Ideal!
El mejor lugar,
¡la carta le encantará!

¡Falta un poco más!
Abriremos bien
en cuanto acaben las fiestas…

O tal vez un poco después,
¿cuando pasen las vacaciones? Ya no sé. 
Eh...
Síganos en redes,
le diremos cuándo volver.


Como ven,
no estoy tan tranquila pues
el cansancio no se va.

Ya tramité, pagué y pagué,
y la resolución no está...

Pero aparté
mesitas hermosas y
sillas que se ven muy bien.

Mañana iré
a recoger
las cortinas, ojalá que ya estén...

Yo que soy cocinera de hobby
no sé por qué olvidé
que siempre quise ser
dueña de un café.
Creo que nadie entendía por qué.

Dicen que
la pasión abre puertas,
y puertas siempre hay.

Voy a abrirle camino a mi vida,
voy a confiar… ¡Ah!

¡Bienvenido a El Mundo Ideal!
¡El mejor lugar!
La carta pronto estará.

Falta un poco más.
Ya lo verá,
¡le gustará conocernos!

Y algo más:
la felicidad
es de cortesía, la casa invita.

Yo seré
quien la serviré,
con una sonrisa y de pie.

Dicen que 
la inseguridad
es algo que afecta a la zona.

Y que no saber
estrategizar
puede complicarme las cosas.

“No te preocupes más,
nada fallará”,
es lo que le dije a mi abuela.

“Es una inversión,
es mi decisión,”
fue que le dije a papá.

Porque yo puedo más.
Yo puedo ser quien quiero ser.

Y como no hay opción,
lo que vendrá será mejor.

Yo puedo.

Voy a pintar
Un buen cartel.

El miedo
auyentaré
con una taza de té.

Sólo queda trabajar.
Y tener clientela regular.

¡Bienvenido a El Mundo Ideal!

What this song means is up to you, and it stands on its own as such, but if you're into this sort of thing, the paralellisms and references linking this song to El Mundo Ideal ( https://soundcloud.com/ankari/el-mundo-ideal ) were intended to both enhance the experience and challenge your interpretation of both songs!

Aunque son independientes, esta canción está relacionada con la otra canción que metimos en el concurso, El Mundo Ideal ( https://soundcloud.com/ankari/el-mundo-ideal )! Tiene varios paralelismos y referencias musicales y en la letra que pueden agregarle mucho a la historia detrás de ambas si las encuentran! :D

ESPAÑOL:
¿Qué pasará
cuando alguien diga no?

¿Qué cambiarás
ante un error?

¿Cómo actuarás
cuando algo salga mal?

Este es el mundo real.

Como ves, el mundo girará
aún si tú quieres que se detenga.
Eso no lo puedes cambiar.

Los pájaros te despertarán
con su cantar
aunque tengas migraña.
Buenos días, ponte a bailar.

¡Baila!

Sabes que la suerte se acabará,
Al buen tiempo malo es quien no encara.
Dale tu sonrisa, invítala;
juega a la ruleta de tu paz.
¡Ya estás!

Busca y encontrarás,
quién sabe qué ni cuándo.

O siéntate a esperar,
y no te cansarás.

Todo está tan bien
que todo está fatal,

Pero igual.

Un poco de paciencia
te beneficiará.

Cuidar las apariencias
es algo natural.

Si en todo lo que piensas
tú tienes la razón,
¿qué te hace tan distinta
a todo aquel que eso mismo se creyó?

Alguien ayuda.
Alguien se va.
Alguien que dice “ya no más”.

Alguien lo tiene.
Alguien lo da.
Alguien quedó detrás, detrás.

¡Ponte de pie! Oeoeo
Pies en la tierra, o-o-o

¡Ponte a saltar! Oeoeo
¿Qué más nos queda, en verdad?
Sólo el futuro lo sabrá.

Y si hay pelo en tu comida o
se rompen cortinas,
lo puedes arreglar.

Si se te cae encima
el techo, la vida,
te pueden levantar.

¡Grita!
 
Para quien no escucha, muy fácil es.
Perro que no ladra siempre muerde.
Llévate a su casa, date de comer.
Ponte su collar, o al revés.

Ya ves.

Busca y encontrarás,
quién sabe qué ni cuándo.

O siéntate a esperar,
y nada pasará.

Todo está tan bien
que todo está fatal.

Pero igual.

Un poco de decencia
te beneficiará.

Buscar la complacencia
es algo natural.

Si limpias tu conciencia
sin agua y sin jabón,
lo que tendrás de higiene
tan sólo está en tu imaginación.

Tú que ayudas.
Tú que te vas.
Tú que hoy dices “ya no más”.

Tú que lo tienes.
Tú que lo das.
Tú que hoy estás detrás, detrás.

¡Ponte de pie! Oeoeo
¡Pies en la tierra, o-o-o

¡Ponte a saltar! Oeoeo
Y todo suelo temblará.

¿Qué pasará
cuando alguien diga no?

¿Qué cambiarás
ante un error?

¿Te romperás
cuando algo salga mal?

No estamos solos.

Todos aquí
buscamos un lugar

donde soñar,
en que confiar.

¿Cómo actuarás
en el mundo real?

Sólo el futuro sabrá.

I... think there's only one parameter I didn't fiddle with... and then we went and filtered Len so hard I can only hope it shows! fjh
