Avalon

Avalon

Billy no estaba sobrio
Billy wasn't sober
Lo detuvieron en Chinatown
He got pulled over in Chinatown
Licor en su aliento
Liquor on his breath
Rellena una pistola en el cojín
Stuffs a pistol in the cushion
Baja la ventana
Rolls the window down
Oh, bueno, su corazón corre como un centenar de yardas
Oh well, his heart it races like hundred yard dash
Frío de piedra en su cara
Stone cold on his face
Desde entonces ha sido reacio en su camino
He's been since then been reluctant on his way

Billy no estaba sobrio
Billy wasn't sober
Tenía resaca
He was hungover
Eran las 10 de la mañana
It was 10 am
Otro día de trabajo
Another day of work
Agarrando la almohada como su único amigo
Clutching the pillow like his only friend
Ha pasado su mejor momento
He's past his prime
Está muy dolorido
He a damn sore
Firme en sus caminos
Steadfast in his ways
Desperdició su vida, pero aún tiene cartas que jugar
Wasted his life but he still has cards to play

Y espera que hoy nadará hasta Avalon
And he hopes today he'll swim his way to Avalon
No está hasta el final
He's not all the way down

Billy está envejeciendo
Billy's getting older
El chip en su hombro se está haciendo más pesado
The chip on his shoulder's getting heavier
Peso del mundo
Weight of the world
Gira y derrapa en el olvido
Spins and skids into oblivion
Esto no es vivir, es una manera de preferir morir
This ain't living, it's a way to rather die
Debe haber otra manera
There must be another way
Bajo su aliento dice
Under his breath he says
Las cosas tienen que cambiar
Things have got to change

Y espera que hoy nadará hasta Avalon
And he hopes today he'll swim his way to Avalon
No está hasta el final
He's not all the way down
Y espera que hoy nadará hasta Avalon
And he hopes today he'll swim his way to Avalon
No está hasta el final
He's not all the way down

Buscando, pero no tiene alma
Searching but he got no soul
Deseando poder activar un interruptor
Wishing he could flip a switch
Dale la vuelta a su vida y enfréntate al hecho
Turn his life around and face the fact
Esa vida es una bruja
That life's a bitch

Y espera que hoy nadará hasta Avalon
And he hopes today he'll swim his way to Avalon
No está hasta el final
He's not all the way down
Y espera que hoy nadará hasta Avalon
And he hopes today he'll swim his way to Avalon
No está hasta el final
He's not all the way down
Y espera que hoy nadará hasta Avalon
And he hopes today he'll swim his way to Avalon
No está hasta el final
He's not all the way down
