El reloj de pared
Anunciando las 6:23
El pasado con sed
Y el presente es un atleta sin pies
Y ya son las 6:43
Y el cadáver del minuto que paso
Me dice así se vive aquí te guste o no
Y la nostalgia pone casa en mi cabeza
Y dan las 6 con 50

Quien te dijo que yo
Era el sueño que soñaste una vez
Quien dijo que tu
Voltearias mi futuro al revés

Y ya son las 7:16
Y el cadáver del minuto que paso
Me dice tu estrategia te arruino
No queda más que ir aprendiendo a vivir solo
Si te quedan agallas

La casa no es otra cosa
Que un cementerio de historias
Enterradas en fosas
Que algunos llaman memorias

Minutos
Como sale la herida
Se me pasa la vida
Gastando el reloj

Minutos
Son la morgue del tiempo
Cadáveres de momentos
Que no vuelven jamás
No hay reloj que de vuelta hacia atrás

Como duele gastar
El instante en el que tu ya no estas
Como cuesta luchar
Con las cosas que no vuelven más

Ya son las 9:23
Y el cadáver del minuto que paso
Se burla de mis ganas de besar
La foto que dejaste puesta en el buró
Mi soledad es tu venganza

El ministerio del tiempo
Puso sede en mi almohada
Ahí te encuentro a momentos
Aunque no sirve de nada

Minutos
Como sale la herida
Se me pasa la vida
Gastando el reloj

Minutos
Son la morgue del tiempo
Cadáveres de momentos
Que no vuelven jamás
No hay reloj que de vuelta hacia atrás

Minutos que se burlan de mí
Minutos como furia del mar
Minutos pasajeros de un tren que no va a ningún lugar
Minutos como lluvia de sal
Minutos como fuego en la piel
Minutos forasteros que vienen y se van sin decir
Minutos que me duelen sin ti
Minutos que no pagan pensión
Minutos que al morir formarán el batallón del ayer
Minutos que se roban la luz
Minutos que me oxidan la fe
Minutos inquilinos del tiempo mientras puedan durar
Minutos que disfrutan morir
Minutos que no tienen lugar
Minutos que se estrellan en mi son Kamikaces de Dios
