Chorus 1
Me llaman 'el desaparecido'
They call me 'the missing'
Cuando llega ya se ha ido
By the time he arrives, he's gone
Volando vengo, volando voy
Flying I come, flying I'm going
Deprisa, deprisa, rumbo perdido
Hurry, hurry, lost course
Verse 1
Cuando me buscan, nunca estoy
When they look for me, I'm never
Cuando me encuentran, yo no soy
When they find me, I'm not
El que está enfrente porque ya
The one across the street because already
Me fui corriendo más allá
I ran past
Me dicen 'el desaparecido'
They call me 'the missing'
Fantasma que nunca está
Ghost who's never here
Me dicen 'el desagradecido'
They call me 'the ungrateful'
Pero esa no es la verdad
But that's not the truth
Yo llevo en el cuerpo un dolor
I carry a pain in my body
Que no me deja respirar
That won't let me breathe
Llevo en el cuerpo una condena
I carry a conviction in my body
Que siempre me echa a caminar
That always throws me for a walk

Hurry up course lost

Que nunca deja de rolar
Who never stops playing
Llevo en el alma un camino
I lead in my soul a path
Destinado a nunca llegar
