Title: Impossible Dialogue Lyrics: ENRIQUE de Clascá A. (English adaptation) I think I’m quite a proper, serious man No wild excesses, no slip-ups in the plan Why don’t you ever listen to what I say? When I share my whole world like a friend, every day To me it feels completely normal, what I do And all the things I honestly believe are true But you refuse to tell me what’s inside your mind Against my wish, you keep it locked, so hard to find Why do you always stay so quiet, never speak? No single word, no hint — it’s driving me to freak I’ve always tried to treat you gentle, kind and fair Your silence makes me feverish, gasping for air Why ignore my effort just to be sincere? All my trying crashes down to zero here It breaks my heart to open up and find no trace I’d give anything for one small sign, one little space Why no answer, not a gesture, not a sound? The anguish grabs me, brutal, drags me to the ground I reach the point where anger starts to show its face I almost want to hurt you — calm down, just a phrase! Should I scream and let my voice explode out loud? Your silence chokes me, leaves me sobbing in a cloud I want to end this torture, this uncertainty That crushes me and sinks my soul in misery Why does everything just hang without an end? Am I the guilty one? I’m lost, I can’t pretend I pause a moment, think profoundly, take a breath All I shared about my life, my heart, my depth Why do I keep searching for some explanation? You stay forever silent in contemplation At this point I’ve made up my mind, I’m drawing near I’ll stop the waiting game and finally accept it here Why settle for a thing that never comes at all? I’ll stretch my patience one last time before I fall No matter how I look, no answer meets my gaze No look, no sign, no flicker through the haze And now I finally see the reason I have failed I was pouring out my soul… to a wall that never sailed All this time I’ve spoken to a silent, stony face Like a merciless sphinx who never leaves her place That woman — cold, unmoved — has simply let me fade An impossible dialogue… with a wall I’ve made.
