Ojos Favoritos
Protistas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
son los dos planetas más adormecidos
me sentí tan hipnotizado, como por un lago
en medio de la noche
Intentar
parar la nave espacial
comienzo a explorar y encontrar algo para entrar
mis huesos cansados y poder respirar
Pienso que todo esta a punto de estallar
por tantos problemas, ya no queda tiempo
para que pueda yo volver
desde el cielo a mi tierra
no se hasta cuando sigo alucinando
Intentar
parar la nave espacial
comienzo a explorar y encontrar algo para entrar
mis huesos cansados y poder respirar
Intentar entrar
hallar la forma de escapar
y volver a mi tierra
dejar de alucinar
tengo que entender, tu no eres de verdad.
The lyrics of Protistas's song "Ojos Favoritos" talk about feeling lost and disconnected from reality. The first few lines describe the singer finding their "favorite eyes," which are two sleepy planets. This imagery serves as a metaphor for their isolation and detachment from the world around them. They feel hypnotized, as if they were staring into a peaceful lake in the middle of the night.
The rest of the lyrics talk about the singer's desire to escape their current state of mind. They feel as if everything is about to explode and there is no time left for them to return to their home planet. They want to stop their spaceship and explore, but their tired bones need some rest before they can continue. They continue to struggle with the dilemma of wanting to escape their current reality while still knowing that they need to come back to earth eventually.
In the final lines, the singer comes to a realization that they are not really seeing what they think they are seeing. They need to understand that their mind is playing tricks on them, and they must find a way to escape their delusions and return to reality.
Overall, the lyrics of "Ojos Favoritos" explore themes of isolation, escapism, and the struggle to reconcile one's desires with reality.
