Piel de ciudad,
Buscaré
Esquivar la soledad.
La gente va,
Y el ruido me distrae,
Me encontraré,
Otra vez,
Mil historias en un bar,
Y en el libro soy sólo una historia más.
Voy sin dirección,
Quiero dejarme ir,
Perder la razón,
Y en lo que ser,
Pues sólo existe el hoy.
Soy pasajero,
Yo voy donde quiero
Y no pueden detener mis pasos.
Soy un viajero,
Que salta sin miedo a caer,
Intentando encontrar su lugar.
Caminaré,
Sin pensar
Una calle y otra más.
Luces de neón me alumbran al pasar
Voy sin dirección,
Quiero dejarme ir,
Perder la razón,
Y en lo que sé,
Pues sólo existe el hoy.
Soy pasajero,
Yo voy donde quiero
Y no pueden detener mis pasos.
Soy un viajero,
Que salta sin miedo a caer,
Intentando encontrar su lugar. (uhh uhh)
Soy pasajero,
Yo voy donde quiero
Y no pueden detener mis pasos. (mis pasos)
Soy un viajero,
Que salta sin miedo a caer,
Intentando encontrar su lugar. (uhh ohh)
(Soy pasajero,
Yo voy donde quiero)
(Soy pasajero,
Yo voy donde quiero)
Y no pueden detener mis pasos!

Yo voy donde quiero)
