Me Enamoré
Discípulos de Otilia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
y yo ya no sé que pensar
me pegaba, me escupía, me humillaba
pero yo sin ella no puedo estar.
El perro murió de una intoxicación
y el gato no sé qué pasó.
Cada noche la cama deshecha está
y yo durmiendo en el sofá.
por qué torturas así?
por qué me toco a mí?
por qué... me enamoré y no se deja querer.
Ella nunca me dijo que me quería
no le merecía nada ni un poco de sensibilidad
pero yo siempre a tu lado seguiré
y por siempre serás mi mujer.
Ella no para de gastar
y el tío del Frac me viene a buscar
con cariños y detalles intentaba convencerla
una puerta en las narices era su única respuesta
cuando llega la navidad creo que llega mi oportunidad.
Los corazones se enternecen pero, mierda!
el suyo se endurece.
Por qué me pasa esto a mí?
por qué torturas así?
por qué me tocó a mí? por qué... me enamoré, y no se deja querer.
The lyrics of Discípulos de Otilia's song Me enamoré tackle the theme of a toxic relationship. The singer is infatuated with a woman who treats him poorly. The first verse sets the tone as the singer arrives home and the gas delivery man leaves, leaving him to ponder his situation. He reveals that he was abused physically and emotionally but cannot be without her. The second verse continues with the same level of sadness as the singer laments the loss of his pet and the disheveled bed they share.
The chorus is an outcry of questions aimed at the universe, as the singer asks why he has to go through this torture, why he fell in love with her when she does not let herself be loved back. He reveals that she never told him she loved him and that he did not deserve even a tiny bit of sensitivity. Nevertheless, he still follows her, calling her "my woman" indefinitely. The third verse explores the woman's spending habits and the advances of a man in a tuxedo or frac. She rejects him even with his kindness, and the singer sees Christmas as a perfect opportunity to win her love, but ends up getting his heart broken even more.
Overall, the song's narrative portrays a theme of sadness, longing, and heartbreak, which is expertly relayed through the lyrics.
