Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Maldita Dulzura by Carla Morrison from Spanish to English.
Hablemos de ruina y espina
Let's talk about ruin and thorn
Hablemos de polvo y herida
Let's talk about dust and wound
De mi miedo a las alturas
About my fear of heights
Lo que quieras pero hablemos
Whatever you want but let's talk
De todo menos del tiempo
About everything except time
Que se escurre entre los dedos
That slips through our fingers
Hablemos para no oirnos
Let's talk so we don't hear each other
Bebamos para no vernos
Let's drink so we don't see each other
Hablando pasan los dias
Talking, the days go by
Que nos quedan para irnos
That we have left to leave
Yo al bucle de tu olvido
Me in the loop of your forgetfulness
Tu al redil de mis instintos
You in the fold of my instincts
Maldita dulzura la tuya
Damn sweetness of yours
Maldita dulzura la tuya
Damn sweetness of yours
Maldita dulzura la tuya
Damn sweetness of yours
Me hablas de ruina y espina
You talk to me about ruin and thorn
Te clavas el polvo en la herida
You drive the dust into the wound
Me culpas de las alturas
You blame me for the heights
Que ves desde tus zapatos
That you see from your shoes
No quieres hablar del tiempo
You don't want to talk about time
Aunque este de nuestro lado
Even though it's on our side
Y hablas para no oirme y bebes para no verme
And you talk so you don't hear me and drink so you don't see me
Yo callo y rio y bebo
I stay silent and laugh and drink
No doy tregua ni consuelo
I give no respite or solace
Y no es por maldad lo juro
And it's not out of malice, I swear
Es que me divierte el juego
It's just that I find the game amusing
Maldita dulzura la mia
Damn sweetness of mine
Maldita dulzura la mia
Damn sweetness of mine
Maldita dulzura la mia
Damn sweetness of mine
Maldita dulzura la nuestra
Damn sweetness of ours
