Expulsados Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yo, yo te busque, en la noche desesperacion por verte.
Ardiendo estoy, con tu diablo mi alma se fue
arrastrando por calles sin luz.

Contra todo peligro.

No, no se quien es
el que habita adentro de mi, tomándome.

O sera que yo por tu hechizo a mi ser transforme,
en un blanco para tu adiccion.

Contra todo peligro.

Overall Meaning

In "Contra Todo Peligro" by Expulsados, the lyrics express a sense of desperation and longing for someone who seems to have a strong hold on the singer. The first stanza describes how the singer searched for this person in the night, consumed by the desire to see them. However, the second line suggests that this desire has led to the singer's soul being taken by "your devil," implying that the person they are searching for is perhaps dangerous or even evil. Despite this, the singer continues to wander through dark streets, seemingly unable to resist the pull of this person.

The chorus, "contra todo peligro," which translates to "against all danger" in English, suggests that the singer is aware of the danger they are facing, yet they continue to pursue this person regardless of the consequences. The second stanza deepens this sense of danger, as the singer acknowledges that they do not even know who is inhabiting their own body, or if their identity has been transformed by this person's spell. The phrase "un blanco para tu adiccion" can be translated to "a target for your addiction," highlighting the potentially addictive nature of this relationship.
