Mar
Ekhymosis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bajo la luna miré
Estrellas fijas origen infinito
Osa mayor
Materno ser pupila del viaje circular

Tras un papel el de la vida

Sagrado momento intenso de energía
En movimento
Visión importante motivo cotidiano

Tras un papel el de la vida

Mar mar de sal mar de bien
Déjame vivir en tu lugar

Como un vapor.
Sagrado momento intenso de energía





Tras un papel el de la vida

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ekhymosis's song, Mar, refer to the singer's transcendental experience while gazing at the moon and stars, particularly the Big Dipper. The singer describes themselves as a pupil or child of the circular journey of these celestial bodies. The second stanza repeats the phrase "Tras un papel el de la vida," which translates to "behind a paper is that of life," suggesting a sense of unreality or illusion that pervades our perceptions of existence. The singer describes their experience as "sagrado momento intenso de energía," a sacred intense moment of energy, perhaps evoking a spiritual or mystical feeling.


The chorus focuses on the ocean, referring to it as a "mar de sal," or sea of salt, and asking to be allowed to live in its place like a vapor. The ocean, often seen as a symbol of eternity or the subconscious, may represent a desire to escape the limitations of daily life and enter a more dreamlike state. The final line of the song repeats the phrase "Tras un papel el de la vida," emphasizing the idea that our experiences are mediated by perception and that reality can be elusive.
