Carpe Diem
Asesinos Cereales Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
cuando el sol brillaba
y nadie se metía entre los dos.
Recordar viejos momentos
cuando allí sopló el viento
y se llevó nuestro amor.
Querer olvidar es difícil
cerrar aquellas heridas
que nos separó.
No me arrepiento de haber vivido
aquello que en un tiempo
nos unía a los dos.
No me arrepiento de haber llorado
la tarde en que te fuiste
aquella en que dijiste adiós.
No me arrepiento de haberte engañado
de algo me sirvió
no me arrepiento en no estar a tu lado
de robarte el corazón.
Querer olvidar es difícil
borrar el dolor
cerrar aquellas heridas
que nos separó.
No me arrepiento de vivir
no me arrepiento de seguir
no me arrepiento de haberte lastimado
después de todo ya no estoy a tu lado
ni jamás lo estaré.
The lyrics of Asesinos Cereales' song Carpe Diem depict a nostalgic reflection on a past relationship. The opening lines paint a picture of fondly remembering the moments shared with a former lover, when the sun shone and nothing came between them. The lyrics then take a melancholic turn, as the singer admits that trying to forget and move on from the pain of the breakup has been difficult, and they still carry the wounds of their separation.
However, the singer also acknowledges that they don't regret the time they spent with their ex-partner or the tears shed when they left. They even go so far as to admit to having cheated on them, but justify it by saying that it served some purpose. The final lines of the song reject the idea of regret and embrace the present, indicating that the singer has moved on and accepts that they will never be with their former lover again.
Overall, Carpe Diem is a bittersweet reflection on a past relationship that acknowledges both the joy and pain that came with it. It showcases the difficulty of moving on from past hurts while also recognizing that those experiences helped shape the person the singer is today.
