Lyrics and Translation

You shoot me from a gun
Me disparas como si fuera un arma
I need you to elevate me here
Necesito que me levantes aquí
At the corner of your lips
En la esquina de tus labios
As the orbit of your hips
Como la órbita de tus caderas
Eclipse, you elevate my soul
Eclipse, tú elevas mi alma
I've got self-control
Tengo autocontrol
Been living like a mole now
Vivo como una topo ahora
Going down, excavation
Bajando, excavación
I and I in the sky
Yo y yo en el cielo
You make me feel like I can fly
Me haces sentir que puedo volar
So high, elevation
Tan alto, elevación
Check it out, I'm speaking out
Mira, estoy hablando
A star lit up like a cigar
Una estrella iluminada como un cigarro
Strung out like a guitar
Estirada como una guitarra
Maybe you could educate my mind
Quizá puedas educar mi mente
Explain all these controls
Explica todos estos controles
I can't sing but I've got soul
No puedo cantar pero tengo alma
The goal is elevation
El objetivo es la elevación
A mole, digging in a hole
Un topo, cavando en un hoyo
Digging up my soul, now
Sacando mi alma, ahora
Going down, excavation
Bajando, excavación
I and I in the sky
Yo y yo en el cielo
You make me feel like I can fly
Me haces sentir que puedo volar
So high, elevation
Tan alto, elevación
Love
Amor
Lift me up out of these blues
Llévame fuera de estos blues
Won't you tell me something true
¿No me dirás algo verdadero?
I believe in you
Creo en ti
A mole, digging in a hole
Un topo, cavando en un hoyo
Digging up my soul now
Sacando mi alma ahora
Going down, excavation
Bajando, excavación
I and I in the sky
Yo y yo en el cielo
You make me feel like I can fly
Me haces sentir que puedo volar
So high, elevation
Tan alto, elevación
