Purgante de Amor
El Haragán Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
en un circulo visioso
y no lo puedo evitar
y no lo puedo evitar
quiero y no puedo
dejarte de amar
perdido estoy, muy perdido estoy
en el vicio de tu amor
y no lo puedo entender
nunca habia
querido haci a una mujer
perdido estoy
muy perdido ya estoy
Perdido estoy
muy perdido ya estoy
cuando te sientas asi igual que yo
ve ala farmacia de la esquina
y tomate un purgaante de amor
un brevaje magico
que te cure
de amor...
In El Haragán's song "Purgante de Amor," the singer expresses his feelings of being lost in a vicious cycle of love, unable to break free. He feels helpless and trapped, as he desperately wants to stop loving this woman, but he can't. The lyrics suggest that he is addicted to her love and that he has never felt this way towards any other woman before. He is so consumed by his feelings that he even suggests a solution to others who may feel the same way: to take a love purgative from the corner pharmacy, a magical concoction that will cure them of their love.
The lyrics convey a sense of emotional confusion and frustration, as the singer tries to make sense of his feelings, which seem to have a hold on him that he cannot break. He is lost in a sea of conflicting emotions, as he simultaneously wants to leave this woman and cannot bear the thought of being without her. The use of repetition throughout the song further emphasizes this internal struggle and sense of helplessness, as the singer repeats phrases like "perdido estoy" (I am lost) and "no lo puedo evitar" (I can't avoid it).
Overall, "Purgante de Amor" is a powerful reflection on the complexities of love and the struggle to overcome its hold on us. The lyrics capture the painful experience of being caught in a cycle of love that we cannot escape, and the desperation to find a way out.
