Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Como Un Títere by Amanda Miguel from Spanish to English.
Yo quería que lo nuestro
I wanted ours
Fuese más que una costumbre
It was more than a custom
Yo quería conocer cada repliegue de tu ser
I wanted to know every recess of your being
Recorrerte más allá de las fronteras de la piel
Take you beyond the borders of the skin
¿cuántas noches en tus brazos he llorado hasta dormirme?
How many nights in your arms have I cried until I fell asleep?
¿cuántas veces en tu muro de silencio me estrellé?
How many times did I crash into your wall of silence?
Porque nunca te tomaste la molestia de entender
Because you never bothered to understand
Y todavía yo me pregunto por qué camino se llega a ti
And I still wonder which way to get to you
Y qué nuevo idioma puedo inventarte para que un día
And what new language can I invent for you so that one day
Me quieras oír
do you want to hear me
Muchas veces he intentado hacerme fuerte y olvidarte
Many times I have tried to become strong and forget you
Me da rabia porque casi se perdió mi dignidad sin embargo
It makes me angry because my dignity was almost lost, however
Como un títere me dejo manejar
Like a puppet I let myself be handled
Y todavía yo me pregunto por que camino se llega a ti
And I still wonder which way to get to you
Vivo muriendo muertes pequeñas y esta agonía no tiene final
I live dying small deaths and this agony has no end
Sé que te pierdo y tengo miedo
I know I lose you and I'm afraid
Si no es contigo, no quiero vivir
If it's not with you, I don't want to live
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
