[Verse 1]
Her screams lights up the night
Her face fills you with fright
And still, with all her might
She yearns to make things right
For them, they've lost their lives
She warned them of the dive
She prayed that one survived
Yet none of them arrived

[Pre-Chorus]
"They're gone, they're gone!" she yells
So on, so on, church bells
Of tears and salt she smells
There are no last farewells, farewells

[Chorus]
La Llorona, qué pasó?
Por qué lloras, mi amor
Y los niños, dónde están
En el río... duermen ya

[Verse 2]
She walks, hands dripping wet, she looks really upset
She was never a threat, yet no one will forget
For them, they've lost their lives, she warned them of the dive
She prayed that one survived, yet none of them arrived
[Pre-Chorus]
They're gone, they're gone, she knows
Yet from their graves they rose
Her insanity grows, just as the river flows and flows

[Chorus]
La Llorona, qué pasó
Por qué lloras, mi amor
Y los niños, dónde están
En el río... duermen ya

[Bridge]
They're gone, they're gone, she digs
I slaughtered them like pigs, I drowned my fucking kids
Their necks, their necks, they cracked like twigs
They're gone, they're gone, she cries, her eyes cast to the sky
She never said goodbye and now's her turn to die

[Outro]
La Llorona, qué pasó
Se te fueron, tus hijos
Cómo va la excavación
Para ti no hay salvación
