1900 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ya llegan las almas
Que nunca pudieron volar.
1900 historias
En el cementerio de la soledad.
Quise pensar que esta vez,
Nuestro reloj no marcaba un adiós.
Sigue latente esta historia de dos.
Encontrarás
En el silencio de esta ciudad,
Ganando a cada paso que dan,
Las sombras que hacen de mi mitad.
Una tragedia más.
Hay cicatrices abiertas
Y en el viejo edén tan solo tempestad.
Son solo cuentos de niños perdidos
Que buscan llegar a algo más.
Quise pensar que esta vez,
Conocería de nuevo el valor.
Trato de seguir en pie,
Sobre las tablas de nuestra función.
Encontrarás
En el silencio de esta ciudad,
Ganando a cada paso que dan,
Las sombras que hacen de mi mitad.
Una tragedia más.
Una tragedia más.
Esa voz que me impulsa
A borrar...
The lyrics of the song talk about a sense of defeat and sadness that is represented by the arrival of the souls that could never fly, meaning those that were not able to fully live their lives. The graveyard represents the stories of people who never achieved their dreams or fulfilled their potential. The singer expresses the hope that this time, the clock is not marking a farewell, and that the story of two people in Paris will continue despite the hardships. The shadows that define a part of the singer will always be present, but they are the ones that help them to move forward, even in a city as quiet as Paris.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of scars and storms, representing the past and its impact on the present. These scars are the stories of lost children who are trying to find their way in the world. The singer wishes to find value in life that they have lost and to keep going, even when it is hard. The voice that moves them is the one that pushes them to move on, even when life is tough.
The song is about confronting the challenges and pain of life and trying to find the strength to move forward. It is a poignant and powerful representation of the complexities of life and the struggles we all face.

Walking around a dead Detroit airport at 5 am and slowly seeing everything come to life to this song is one of my most treasured moments. And it just happened on April 5th 2021.

1900 är så bra, vill också tacka för detta mästerliga musikhantverk! Och du har fått helt rätt bildspråk också, en underbar helhet. Det är inte ofta nuförtiden som musik ger mig rysningar. Men 1900 gör det. Helt otroligt bra, TACK!
Niklas Lindberg

Brought me to tears, I don't even want to attempt to describe your music or how it makes me feel, It's enough to just experience it.
