Letra de Cuando sea grande (en inglés)

When I?m older
I don?t want to do all the gossiping
Don?t want to care if people get closer or back off from me
I don?t want to negate my reflection in the mirror
Don?t want to caress anger in my frown

I don?t want to keep so many secrets
Don?t want to find myself in some grotesque frame
Like the Montague and the Capulet
I don?t want to become obsolete at your age

I don?t want to lose vigour, nor be saying helplessly
That everything used to be better in the past
I don?t want to come home distressed and worried
Or to be tired of keeping myself alive

And although this truth might hurt
I have to tell it anyway
If it hurts, I?m sorry, but
When I?m older, I don?t want to be like you

I don?t want to commit your mistakes
Don?t want to believe that everybody lies
I don?t want to rely on your values
I don?t want every day to be the same

I don?t want to be unable to control my emotions
Don?t want my eyes to bi filled with sadness
Don?t want them to be red and moist, faded and weak
I don?t want to put up with being a waste of my life

I don?t want to vehemently blame others
For the things that are my responsibility
I don?t want to mess myself in some lunacy
Something that I couldn?t afford when I was 23

And although this truth might hurt
I have to tell it anyway
If it hurts, I?m sorry, but
When I?m older, I don?t want to be like you

I don?t want to be unable to feel pleasure
Don?t want to feel pain and hate yesterdays
I don?t want to look at the old photos and shed a tear
Don?t want to tremble at the sound of somebody?s name

I don?t want to live this wretched life
Suspecting cheating everywhere and denying hope
I don?t want to criticize everybody around me, pretending to be perfect
I don?t want to care about being alone on a date

And although this might cause misunderstanding
I don?t want you to think my only aim is to criticize
And I hope that you don?t really mean that
Because I don?t really know if I?d like you to want to be like me

And although this truth might hurt
I have to tell it anyway
If it hurts, I?m sorry, but
When I?m older, I don?t want to be like you

And although this truth (I don?t want to be like you)
Might hurt
I have to tell it (I don?t want to be like you)
Anyway
If it hurts, (I don?t want to be like you)
I?m sorry
When I?m older?
