Lyrics & translation
Verse
The curtain falls, the crowd is gone.
Cae el telón, el público se marcha.
Heels in my hand, I walk the hall.
Camino por el pasillo, tacones en mano.
My makeup smears, the mask is thin.
Mi maquillaje se corre, la máscara adelgaza.
I'm just a woman, home again.
Soy solo una mujer, de nuevo en casa.
Chorus
Kitchen light.
Luz de cocina.
Nothing left to play.
Ya no queda ningún papel.
Kitchen light.
Luz de cocina.
Safe enough to stay.
Me siento segura para quedarme.
Verse
The kettle hums a quiet tune.
La tetera tararea una suave melodía.
No scripted lines, just afternoon.
Sin frases de guion, solo la tarde.
I take a seat, the wood is cold.
Me siento, la madera está fría.
I leave my costume by the door.
Dejo mi vestuario junto a la puerta.
Chorus
Kitchen light.
Luz de cocina.
Nothing left to play.
Ya no queda ningún papel.
Kitchen light.
Luz de cocina.
Safe enough to stay.
Me siento segura para quedarme.
Bridge
Twenty voices in my head.
Veinte voces en mi cabeza.
All the words that they have said.
Todas las palabras que dijeron.
Now the silence is a friend.
Ahora el silencio es un amigo.
I don't need applause tonight.
Esta noche no necesito aplausos.
Chorus
Kitchen light.
Luz de cocina.
Nothing left to play.
Ya no queda ningún papel.
Kitchen light.
Luz de cocina.
Safe enough to stay.
Me siento segura para quedarme.
Outro
My own name feels new again.
Mi propio nombre vuelve a sentirse nuevo.
I turn the handle, let life in.
Giro la manija, dejo entrar la vida.
