Correction
A confessional and intense bolero that explores the invisible suffering of perfectionism and relentless self-criticism. Through a dense, passionate melody, the track portrays the anguish of someone who constantly revises their own steps and issues emotional "erratas" (corrections) to the world, flowing into a manifesto of self-acceptance where "doing one's best" replaces the illusion of perfection.
In my simplest act,
(En mi más simple acto,)
I suffer from my own judgment.
(Sufro con mi juzgamiento.)
It is a bad thing to achieve what I want,
(Malo es lograr lo que quiero,)
I am my own executioner.
(Soy yo mismo de mí verdugo.)
With the sword of certainty in hand,
(Con la espada de la certeza en puño)
I justify everything I stamp.
(Justifico todo aquello que cuño)
What I do, I redo on the spot,
(Lo que hago lo rehago en el acto)
I issue an Errata so I won't be mocked.
(Emito Errata para no ser burlado)
If I didn't do it, I suffer from the gap;
(Si no lo hice, sufro con el hiato;)
If I did it, I suffer from the crossed boundary.
(Si lo hice, con límite usurpado.)
Now I have made a decision
(Ahora tomé una decisión)
To fix my every step,
(De arreglar todo mi paso,)
Even though this scares me,
(Aunque esto me asuste,)
I ask everyone to forgive me.
(A todos pido que me disculpen.)
Of what I wrote, it is written.
(De lo que escribí, está escrito.)
Of everything I spoke, it came with good intentions.
(De todo lo que hablé, tuvo buena intención.)
If I didn't please, I acknowledge it;
(Si no agradé, lo registro;)
If I made a mistake, here is my correction.
(Si erré, va mi corrección.)
Understanding through this lens
(Entender con este recorte)
Is a compass for our lives:
(Para nuestra vida es un norte)
To know that "The Perfect" does not exist.
(Saber: no existe "Lo Perfecto".)
What matters is what is best done.
(Importante es lo mejor hecho.)
