08- Un pacto
Bersuit Vergarabat Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Un pacto para vivir
Odiándonos sol a sol
Revolviendo más
En los restos de un amor
Con un camino recto
A la desesperación
Desenlace?
En un cuento de terror

Seis años así
Escapando me otro lugar
Con mi fantasía
Buscando otro cuerpo, otra voz
Fui consumiendo infiernos
Para salir de vos
Intoxicado loco
Sin humor

Si hoy te tuviera aquí
Cuando hago esta canción
Me sentirías raro
No tengo sueño, mi panza vibra
Tuve un golpe energético
Milagro y resurrección
Y eso que estaba tieso
Bajo control

El poder siempre manda
Si para tenerte aquí
Había que maltratarte!
No puedo hacerlo, sos mi dios
Te veo, me sonrojo y tiemblo
Qué idiota te hace el amor
Y hoy quiero darle rienda
A esta superstición





Un pacto para vivir! Un pacto para vivir

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bersuit Vergarabat's song "Un pacto" appear to speak about a volatile and complicated relationship. The first verse speaks of a pact to live while hating each other day by day, and engaging in the emotionally destructive behavior of delving deeper into the wreckage of a broken relationship. The phrase "revolviendo más en los restos de un amor" expresses this destructive behavior perfectly. The path followed is a straight one into despair and terror, and the final outcome is uncertain, as "desenlace" means "outcome" or "end," but in this context, it could refer to the end of the relationship or the end of one's life.


The following verse seems to talk about a period of six years where the singer is searching for someone to fill the void left by their previous partner. "Fui consumiendo infiernos para salir de vos" roughly translates to "I was consuming hell to get out of you," again referring to the still-lingering emotional damage caused by the previous relationship. The singer has encountered many versions of hell and has been intoxicated and mad, and as a result, there's no humor in their life.


In the final verse, the singer believes that if their beloved were to return, they wouldn't feel the same as they do now. They've had an energy boost in the form of a miracle, and they reject the notion that they'd have to abuse the lover to keep them. The power dynamic in the relationship is clear, and the singer identifies their lover as a god-like figure. They're smitten but feel like an idiot, and the last line of the song calls out to the universe to make a pact to live.
