Pamela
Alex Lora/El Tri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mas allà del cielo azul
Existiò un bello lugar
A donde los niños van cuando mueren
Cuando dejan de existir
Esta es la historia de una niña
Que tiene tiempo ya en ese lugar
De sus vicios, sus locuras y su desesperación
Pamela, era una niña de solo 2 años
Pamela, ella tenia ganas de vivir, pero
Su propia madre le quito la vida
Su propia madre la asesino
Su padre llora por ella en la carcel
Pues nunca la volverà a ver jamas!
Que culpa tienen los niños
De las broncas de sus padres
De sus deudas, de sus traumas
De sus vicios, sus locuras
Y su desesperación
Pamela era una niña de solo 2 años
Pamela ella tenia derecho a vivir pero
Su padre llora por ella en silencio
Tras de las rejas de su celda
Y desesperado el quisiera matarse
Pues en el cielo la quiere alcanzar
Pamela era una niña de solo 2 años
Pamela ella tenia ganas de vivir pero
Su propia madre le quito la vida
Su propia madre la asesino
Su padre llora por ella en la cárcel
Pues nunca la volverá a ver
No ya nunca la volverá a ver
El ya nunca la volverá a ver
Jamas
The lyrics of Alex Lora/El Tri's song "Pamela" speak of a place beyond good and evil, beyond the blue sky, where children go when they die, where they cease to exist. The lyrics then recount the story of a 2-year-old girl named Pamela, who was victimized by her own mother's addictions, craziness, and desperation. Pamela had a desire to live but her own mother took her life away from her. The song questions the guilt of children who are victims of their parents' problems, and who are punished with their parents' traumas, vices, and madness. Pamela's father, who is in prison, can only mourn for her in silence and contemplate suicide just to be with her in heaven. The song ends by lamenting the tragedy of Pamela's death and the fact that her father will never see her again.
