Thanks, Tom.
Basado en ¨La familia de León Roch¨, de Benito Pérez Galdós.

lyrics

My dear friend,

Do you wanna know the story of Leon´s Roch family,
a man who made a big mistake changing his destiny.
He used his voice and made his choice
to walk on the wrong way.
A cool wedding with a beauty queen, some children, some houses.

A boring job, a little hope, but nothing happens
always the same, playing the game, spending money.
And your beauty queen, where does she hide? Maybe is she dying?
Your friends and fellows are becoming wolves,
they´re talking about you.

He was a nice boy in love with the whole world,
then, the things went right and he began to die,
living in a lie, he was a nice boy.

If you return to see that weird personality, give him my regards,
but only mine from me, that´s is my PS
if you hear it from me.

He was a nice boy who lost himself one night,
coming home from work.
