El tema de esta semana es "Love Hurts" y la verdad es que hay demasiado repertorio de donde elegir, porque lo mejor que puede hacer una persona con el corazón roto es escribir una canción jajajaja.
Elegí cantar "Burn" de mi musical favorito: Hamilton. Esta canción es interpretada en la obra por el personaje de Eliza Hamilton (la esposa de Alexander Hamilton) cuando descubre que su esposo ha tenido un romance con otra mujer y para limpiar su nombre (se ponía en dudas si desviaba fondos del estado ilegalmente) decidió contar en el periódico todo su romance con esta mujer y como ella y su esposo lo sobornaron para no sacarlo a la luz.
Imagínate la situación que vivía la pobre Eliza, no solo descubriendo que su marido fue infiel sino también siendo sometida a humillación pública por esto.
Hello Hive Open Mic Community! I'm happy to participate again in this initiative. The truth is that I've really enjoyed the community and seeing the talent of other people, as well as the passion with which they make music.
This week's theme is "Love Hurts" and the truth is that there is too much repertoire to choose from, because the best thing a heartbroken person can do is write a song hahahaha.
I chose to sing "Burn" from my favorite musical: Hamilton. This song is performed in the play by the character of Eliza Hamilton (Alexander Hamilton's wife) when she discovers that her husband has had an affair with another woman and to clear his name (it was in doubt if he illegally diverted state funds) she decided to tell in the newspaper all his affair with this woman and how she and her husband bribed him not to bring it to light.
Imagine the situation poor Eliza was in, not only discovering that her husband was unfaithful but also being subjected to public humiliation for this.
Letra | Lyrics
I saved every letter you wrote me
From the moment I read them
I knew you were mine
You said you were mine
I thought you were mine
Do you know what Angelica said
When we saw your first letter arrive?
She said, "Be careful with that one, love
"He will do what it takes to survive"
You and your words flooded my senses
Your sentences left me defenseless
You built me palaces out of paragraphs
You built cathedrals
I'm re-reading the letters you wrote me
I'm searching and scanning for answers in every line
For some kind of sign
And when you were mine
The world seemed to burn
Burn
You published the letters she wrote you
You told the whole world
How you brought this girl into our bed
In clearing your name
You have ruined our lives
Do you know what Angelica said
When she read what you'd done?
She said, "You've married an Icarus
"He has flown too close to the sun"
You and your words obsessed with your legacy
Your sentences border on senseless
And you are paranoid in every paragraph
How they perceive you
You, you, you!
I'm erasing myself from the narrative
Let future historians wonder how Eliza reacted
When you broke her heart
You have torn it all apart
I'm watching it burn
Watching it burn
The world has no right to my heart
The world has no place in our bed
They don't get to know what I said
I'm burning the memories
Burning the letters that might have redeemed you
You forfeit all rights to my heart
You forfeit the place in our bed
You'll sleep in your office instead
With only the memories of when you were mine
I hope that you burn
