Animal
Bitman & Roban Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Me cuesta hablar de ella y el por que
Es algo animal que me sucede
Cuando se acerca nadie puede controlarme
El ángel desciende al infierno de su propia fe
Ella
No puedo dejar de mirarte
Que desliza en mi alma y me detiene
Dejándome sin aliento y tan valiente
Si me miras Me rompo en mil pedazos
El
Me cuesta hablar de ella y el por qué
Es algo animal ke me sucede
Cuando se acerca nadie puede controlarme
El ángel desciende al infierno de su propia fe
Ella
Si estas en Melancolía
Que llovizna en mi melodía
Derritiendo mis teorías
Pues por ti que no daría
Un pedazo de tiempo
El azul del silencio
Una fracción del viento
Es por ti que yo muero
Dame tu misterio
Ser la reina de tu imperio
El
Me cuesta hablar de ella y el por qué
Es algo animal que me sucede
Cuando se acerca nadie puede controlarme
El ángel desciende al infierno de su propia fe
Ella
El ángel desciende al infierno de su propia fe
The lyrics to Bitman & Roban's song "Animal" describe a powerful and uncontrollable attraction between two people. The two speakers, represented by the pronouns "El" and "Ella" respectively, are both struggling with the intensity of their emotions towards each other. El explains that his feelings are "something animal" that he cannot control, and that nobody can resist him when she is near. He describes himself as an angel descending into the "hell" of his own faith, suggesting that his desire for Ella is both divine and potentially dangerous. Ella, for her part, admits that she is unable to resist El's gaze, which leaves her feeling dizzy and vulnerable. She also expresses her willingness to give anything for him, including her time, her beliefs, and even her own identity.
Overall, "Animal" is a song about the primal and instinctual aspects of desire, and about the impossible-to-resist attraction that can exist between two people. It portrays the intensity of these feelings as something almost beyond human control, and suggests that they can be both exhilarating and dangerous.
