NOTHING ON THE TABLE (ENGLISH)

They gather and debate

when there is nothing on my table

Their words shine and then

there’s still nothing on my table

so, I think, I couldn’t be like them,

‘cause my mouth wouldn’t open enough

and my voice is the last sound they’d hear

and I realize I’m not worthy…

but, why do I have a table?

Let’s make believe

there is something on my table

and I pretend to be like them

saying things I don’t understand

and I talk about those

who have nothing on their tables

and suddenly I can pretend no longer

for they never cry while talking

maybe they don’t know, as well,

what it’s really like

having nothing on one’s table
