Translation of the song lyrics Cierra bien las manos - Nek

Cierra bien las manos (original)

Tú con tus manos al desnudo
al soñar no dices si,
y tras la puerta no hay nada seguro
piensas que el mundo termina aquí.
Y disuelves la vida en el hielo
te la bebes tú.
Tu garganta se cierra gritando al espejo
que no lloras tú.
Cierra bien las manos, tiéndeme los brazos
recibes golpes y te defiendes.
Vives o no, vives o no,
cada uno elige su vida mejor.
Cierra bien las manos, sin excusas vamos
rindiendo cuentas, mientras se pueda.
Vives o no, vives o no,
Y a los que digan «no», niégaselo.
Y yo, y yo.
Un corazón cuando se rompe, di cuantos trozos pegas tú
tú con la culpa de perdonarme
mirando al cielo le hablaste tú.
Cuantas veces te han dicho: «lo siento, debe ser así»
y al destino has gritado ahora te espero,
yo me quedo aquí.
Cierra bien las manos, tiéndeme los brazos
recibes golpes y te defiendes.
Vives o no, vives o no,
cada uno elige su vida mejor.
Cierra bien las manos, sin excusas vamos
rindiendo cuentas, mientras se pueda.
Vives o no, vives o no,
y a los que digan «no», niégaselo,
y yo, y yo.
Cierra bien las manos, gira el vuelo alto
recibes golpes y te defiendes.
Vives o no, vives o no,
cada uno elige su vida mejor.
Cierra bien las manos, sin excusas vamos
rindiendo cuentas, mientras se pueda.
Vives o no, vives o no,
y a los que digan «no», niégaselo,
y yo, y yo.

(translation)

You with your bare hands
when you dream you don't say yes,
and behind the door there is nothing safe
you think the world ends here.
And you dissolve life into ice
you drink it yourself
Your throat closes screaming at the mirror
that you don't cry
Close your hands well, stretch out your arms
you take hits and defend yourself.
You live or you don't, you live or you don't,
everyone chooses his best life.
Close your hands well, without excuses let's go
being accountable, while you can.
You live or you don't, you live or you don't,
And to those who say "no", deny it.
And me, and me.
A heart when it breaks, say how many pieces you stick
you with the guilt of forgiving me
Looking at the sky, you spoke to him.
How many times have you been told: "I'm sorry, it must be like this"
and to destiny you have shouted now I wait for you,
I stay here.
Close your hands well, stretch out your arms
you take hits and defend yourself.
You live or you don't, you live or you don't,
everyone chooses his best life.
Close your hands well, without excuses let's go
being accountable, while you can.
You live or you don't, you live or you don't,
and to those who say "no", deny it,
and me, and me.
Close your hands tightly, turn the flight high
you take hits and defend yourself.
You live or you don't, you live or you don't,
everyone chooses his best life.
Close your hands well, without excuses let's go
being accountable, while you can.
You live or you don't, you live or you don't,
and to those who say "no", deny it,
and me, and me.
