Low Desert by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
It happened fast, it's over quick.
A little dust and the engine kicks.
Did you hands drift down off the wheel?
Roll out, hit your windshield
An eyelash or a little bit of sleep?
Time stands still.
Just call it now and you're on your way (hey, a hey hey, hey)
All the ashtrays, cities and the freeway drives
Broken casino and waterslides
Eighteen-wheeler, payback dice.
Gravity flows on the power line.
Jet stream cuts the desert sky.
This is a land could eat a man alive.
Say you'll leave it all behind. (hey, a hey hey, hey)
There's a radio tower that's egging me on
Back to the place where you never belong.
Where people thrive on their own contempt.
Whatever meaning is long gone, spent.
If you had to guess or make a bet,
Would you place yourself inside of it?
The mountains yawn, the clouds let out a sigh.
"Tricked again."
Let go, okay. (hey, hey, hey, a hey hey, a hey, hey hey, hey)

Spanish translation of Low Desert by R.E.M.
Low Desert* (original R.E.M.)
It happened fast, it's over quick.
A little dust and the engine kicks.
Did you hands drift down off the wheel?
Roll out, hit your windshield
An eyelash or a little bit of sleep?
Time stands still.
Just call it now and you're on your way (hey, a hey hey, hey)
All the ashtrays, cities and the freeway drives
Broken casino and waterslides
Eighteen-wheeler, payback dice.
Gravity flows on the power line.
Jet stream cuts the desert sky.
This is a land could eat a man alive.
Say you'll leave it all behind. (hey, a hey hey, hey)
There's a radio tower that's egging me on
Back to the place where you never belong.
Where people thrive on their own contempt.
Whatever meaning is long gone, spent.
If you had to guess or make a bet,
Would you place yourself inside of it?
The mountains yawn, the clouds let out a sigh.
"Tricked again."
Let go, okay. (hey, hey, hey, a hey hey, a hey, hey hey, hey)
Low Desert (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Pasó rápido, terminó pronto.
Un poco de polvo y el motor arranca.
¿Tus manos se deslizaron del volante?
Sal, golpea tu parabrisas
¿Una pestaña o un poco de sueño?
El tiempo se detiene.
Solo llama ahora y estás en camino (hey, a hey hey, hey)
Todos los ceniceros, ciudades y los viajes por autopista
Casino roto y toboganes de agua
Camión de dieciocho ruedas, dados de revancha.
La gravedad fluye en la línea eléctrica.
La corriente en chorro corta el cielo del desierto.
Esta es una tierra que podría devorar a un hombre vivo.
Di que lo dejarás todo atrás. (hey, a hey hey, hey)
Hay una torre de radio que me incita
De vuelta al lugar al que nunca perteneces.
Donde la gente prospera con su propio desprecio.
Cualquier significado se ha ido hace mucho, gastado.
Si tuvieras que adivinar o apostar,
¿Te colocarías dentro de ello?
Las montañas bostezan, las nubes sueltan un suspiro.
"Engañado de nuevo."
Suelta, está bien. (hey, hey, hey, a hey hey, a hey, hey hey, hey)
