Even in these times, as fast as a Cadillac without breaks

Each day has one minute where I close my eyes and I enjoy longing for you.

Even in these times, where I am happy in a different way

Each day has that one instant in which I know I would give my whole life to have you with me.

Even in these times, of being out and laughing with friends 

Each day has that moment in which breathing is that ungrateful duty I have to take on.

And the pain would go much farther away if you weren't inside my soul

If you didn't look like the ghost that lives in my mirror.

Even in these times, as banal as a costume party

Each day has a few hours to scream at the edge of dawn how much I miss you.

Even in these times, where I learned not to wait for you

Each day I have relapses and even though I can fake it, I don't forget I can't forget you.

And the pain would go much farther away if you weren't inside my soul

If you didn't look like the ghost that lives in my mirror.
