Cabezones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
señálame el lugar
de a poco muere mi gente
todo me hunde un poco más...
Cuál será su codicia?
la que hoy reina en mí
tus espinas en mis ojos
A tus pies. a tus pies. a tus pies
Dónde estará mi cristo?
cuándo seré feliz ?
no pagué mis pecados?
mis sacrificios no tienen fin
A tus pies. a tus pies. a tus pies.
a tus pies. a tus pies. a tus pies.
Y todo sigue
esquivando la mugre
de los días.
que descanses...en paz
Busco una razón
una verdad
busco alquien
en quien confiar.
The lyrics of Cabezones's song "A Tus Pies" express a search for hope and redemption, accompanied by a sense of guilt and despair. The singer wonders about the whereabouts of their savior and questions whether their sacrifices and prayers have been enough to earn salvation. The reference to "tus espinas en mis ojos" (your thorns in my eyes) suggests that the pain and suffering of Jesus on the cross are a constant reminder of the singer's own flaws and failings. The repetition of "a tus pies" (at your feet) reinforces the idea of seeking refuge and guidance from a divine figure.
The song touches on themes of faith, doubt, and personal struggle. The line "cuál será su codicia?" (what is their greed?) suggests a disillusionment with the corruption and materialism of the world, which contrasts with the purity and humility of the figure of Christ. The mention of "mi gente" (my people) hints at a social or political dimension to the singer's concerns, alluding to a sense of collective suffering and oppression.
Overall, "A Tus Pies" is a poignant and introspective song that explores the complexities of spirituality and the human condition.
