Written by Oscar Aranda
I’ve never had real friends, not even a few,
they were just people I once vaguely knew
They were acquaintances with a different point of view
I’ve got this awful anxiety
Plaguing and distorting reality
And I hate myself for being too damn shy
I disappear into the background as people pass me by
I’m just a distant memory about to fade away for good
A desolate soul destined for a failed adulthood
La-dee dah-dee-dah
I’ve got no charm
And I know that…
I cause myself the most harm
She’s so gorgeous, I can’t help but stare
But she doesn’t even notice when I’m there
I’m neurotic and awkwardly postured, she will never care
I’ve got this awful anxiety
Plaguing and distorting reality
And I hate myself for being too damn shy
I disappear into the background as people pass me by
I’m just a distant memory about to fade away for good
A desolate soul destined for a failed adulthood
La-dee dah-dee-dah
I’ve got no charm
And I know that…
I cause myself the most harm
My silence, a statement of how I feel
Melancholy is much more than real
I know that I’ve got no charm
Stop me from causing myself more harm
My silence, a statement of how I feel
Melancholy is much more than real
I know that I’ve got no charm
Stop me from causing myself more harm
La-dee dah-dee-dah
I’ve got no charm

Letra: Sin Dios
Elegimos un camino en el que no hay vuelta atrás,
empeñando nuestra vida en la lucha contra el capital.
Aquí no existen las medallas ni la recompensa material,
carcel y muerte aguardan por vivir con dignidad.
En cada piedra se alzan banderas negras de la libertad.
Miles de puños preparan la ocasión de golpear al capital
Los politicos pregonan no hace falta ya luchar
por las clases ya conviven en armonia social
pero yo veo problemas, hambre paren desigualdad
estan los mismos de siempre se enriquecen sin parar.
En cada piedra se alzan banderas negras de la libertad.
Miles de puños preparan la ocasión de golpear al capital
Los compañeros caídos nunca hay que olvidar,
recogiendo su antorcha para avanzar.
Las mujeres y los hombres en la calle hemos de estar,
aprendiendo del pasado y el futuro afrontar.
En cada piedra se alzan banderas negras de la libertad.
Miles de puños preparan la ocasión de golpear al capital

Black Flags (English Translation)
Lyrics: Sin Dios
We have chosen a path in which there’s no turning back
We have dedicated our lives to fight against the capital
Medals and material rewards don’t exist here
Jail and death are expected for living with dignity
On every stone will rise a black flag of liberty
Thousands of fists are ready for a chance to hit the capital
The politicians are proclaiming there’s no need to fight
For all the classes coexist in social harmony
But I see problems, hunger, stop the inequality
The same people as always, getting rich without a stop
On every stone will rise a black flag of liberty
Thousands of fists are ready for a chance to hit the capital
We must not forget about our fallen comrades
Picking up their torches to move forward
Women and men, in the streets we must be
Learning from the past and confront the future
On every stone will rise a black flag of liberty
Thousands of fists are ready for a chance to hit the capital
