ORION
El Otro Yo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
tan vacío has dejado el lugar,
una lágrima de cristal
lastimará mi almohada.
Campos de mariposas blancas...
son abismos de soledad,
tu sonrisa mágica
Cartas de neones
en el cielo...
has abierto mis ojos esta noche,
dime en cuál constelación estarás?
Oriooooon...
The lyrics to El Otro Yo's "Orion" are filled with vivid imagery and emotional themes of loss, loneliness, and the search for meaning and connection. The first verse speaks of the emptiness left behind by someone, perhaps a lover or a friend, and the pain that their absence causes. The use of light and tears as metaphors suggests that the singer is deeply affected by the loss and struggling to cope with their feelings.
The second verse introduces the image of white butterfly fields, which are described as vast empty spaces that symbolize loneliness and isolation. But then the singer's mood brightens as they talk about the power of a magical smile to lift them out of despair. The song ends with a reference to the constellation Orion, as the singer wonders where the person they miss might be in the vast expanse of the universe.
Overall, "Orion" is a poignant and evocative song that captures the universal human experience of loss and longing. Its use of vivid imagery and poetic language make it a powerful expression of emotion that many listeners can relate to on a personal level.

Una gota de luz en tus ojos tan vacío has dejado el lugar una lágrima de cristal lastimará mi almohada Campos de mariposas blancas son abismos de soledad tu sonrisa mágica me recupera de mi perdición Cartas de neones en el cielo has abierto mis ojos esta noche dime en cuál constelación estarás?
