El Sol
Bicicletas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No voy a despertar en el mundo real
No voy a regresar jamás
El mundo es un lugar azul (es un lugar azul)
El mundo es un lugar sin luz
El sol es de verdad

No voy a caminar en tus sombras
Y no te voy a ir a buscar
El mundo jira desde ayer, en mi cabeza
El mundo es como una pared
El sol es de verdad
El sol es de verdad
El mundo es un lugar normal
El sol es de verdad

No voy a regresar al mundo real
No voy a despertar jamás
El mundo es un lugar azul
El mundo es un lugar sin luz
El sol es de verdad
El sol es de verdad
El mundo es un lugar normal
El mundo es un lugar normal

El sol es una estrella y no es un plato volador
El sol es una nave no es de queso roquefort
El sol es de verdad

El sol es de verdad




El sol es de verdad
El sol es de verdad

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bicicletas's song "El Sol" convey a sense of detachment from reality, a desire to remain in an alternate world free of shadows and darkness. The singer declares that they will not wake up in the real world or return to it, suggesting a preference for an idyllic, even if imagined, realm. The world, to them, is a blue place without light, suggesting a sense of melancholy and despair. However, the one constant is the reassuring presence of the sun, which is described as being "real."


The repetition of the phrase "El sol es de verdad" reinforces the idea that the sun is an anchor in an otherwise confusing and elusive universe. The idea of a world that turns since yesterday on the singer's head suggests an internal struggle with one's place in the world, which is countered by the reassuring image of the sun as a cosmic constant. The lyrics can be interpreted as a reflection on the fleeting nature of reality, the search for inner truth as opposed to external illusions, and the power of the human imagination to create alternate realities.
