Cuchillero malo, your blade is strong
Your heart is merciless, unbending, unbreaking
You have torn my soul, crushed my softness,
Slashed my heart, quelled my defiance,
but still my heart beats, still my blood flows,
still my mind races, craving your blade again.
Cuchillero malo, your blade is deadly
You pierced me to the quick, again and again
You have raised me up, dashed me down
In your whirlwind of shifting shadows,
but still my heart beats, still my blood flows,
still my mind races, craving your blade again.
Cuchillero malo, your blade is sharp
You gleam like a fire, but your eyes are in shadow
You have burned the words, broken the silence
Summoned me to you, and then you are gone,
but still my heart beats, still my blood flows,
still my mind races, craving your blade again.
