Memento Mori
Delta Venus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nada más saber
de vos de nuevo
nada más olvidar
todo lo que aprendí
Nada mal caer
hondo de nuevo
matar un dolor
es dejar que sangre

Nada va a hacer que vuelva ahora
Nada me desespera más que ayer

Nada hasta la noche vientre
Universo posible serás
negra
nunca frágil
en tus horas difusas
como los ríos
rozan las huellas
de una rabia dulce y muda

Nada va a hacer que duerma ahora
Nada me desespera más que ayer

Tan fácil como cerrar
tu círculo en el aire




hoy voy a tocarte
sólo para despertar a Dios

Overall Meaning

The Spanish lyrics of Delta Venus's song "Memento Mori" depict a deep sense of yearning and longing for someone's presence. The beginning of the song suggests that the singer has just heard from someone again after a long time, and seems to be willing to forget everything they've learned so far just to be near that person. The lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability and desperation, which is further emphasized by the line "Nada mal caer hondo de nuevo" or "Nothing wrong with falling deep again."


The middle section of the song speaks of the night and the universe, suggesting a vastness that can be overwhelming. The words "Universo posible serás" or "You will be a possible universe" indicate that the person being addressed is a source of infinite possibilities, perhaps even a refuge from the harshness of reality. The imagery of rivers and traces suggests something elusive, but sweet and quiet at the same time.


The song ends with the lines "Tan fácil como cerrar tu círculo en el aire hoy voy a tocarte sólo para despertar a Dios" or "As easy as closing your circle in the air, today I will touch you just to wake up God." These lines convey a sense of transcendence, as if touching the person being addressed could reach the divine. Overall, the song seems to depict a longing for love and connection, and the idea that connecting with someone on a deep level can awaken something greater.
