Alas Rotas
El Privilegio Lyrics

The first verse of El Privilegio's song "Alas Rotas" speaks of the difficulty in letting go of love. The singer acknowledges that it is impossible to continue pretending when the love is gone. So, for the benefit of both, the singer will set the love free. The singer knows that it will hurt, but they believe it's the right thing to do. Even though there may not be love, there are still feelings involved, and that's where the difficulty arises.

The chorus of the song, "Y volaras con alas rotas hasta olvidar la triste derrota," captures the pain of the aftermath of a breakup. It highlights how sometimes a person may have to "fly" even when their "wings" are broken, and they're hurting. They mustn't lose hope in finding happiness again, and so they must fly with their broken wings, forgetting their sad defeat. The singer hopes that the person they're letting go will find someone worthy of their love and that in that day, they'll be happy.

The final verse expresses hope; the singer knows that when the person they love finds another person worthy of them, it will be a new dawn, and the doors of love will open again.
