After Party
Fútbol en la Escuela Lyrics

The lyrics to "After Party" by Fútbol en la Escuela explore themes of nostalgia, regret, and self-destructive behavior. The song paints a picture of a late-night scene ("Lagunas en medio de la madrugada") where memories resurface in the morning ("Recuerdos que flotan por la mañana"). These memories are reflected in the emotional state of the singer, represented by the "lagunas" (lagoons) that mirror the autumnal colors of fallen leaves. The use of the term "lagunas" suggests a sense of emptiness or gaps in understanding.

The lyrics also touch on the inner struggles faced by the characters, embodying their demons and toying with their own weapons ("Demonios que juegan con nuestras armas"). The lines "No supiste nunca entenderlo / Ahora está tan lejos" (You never knew how to understand it / Now it's so far away) convey a sense of distance and missed opportunities. The singer, who refers to themselves as an idiot, acknowledges their role in ruining what could have been a great opportunity. Despite the recognition of the potential harm in their actions, they are willing to risk it all.

The repeated line "O quizá disfrutarlo / Tan solo un rato" (Or maybe enjoy it / Just for a while) suggests a desire for temporary pleasure or escapism. It hints at a tendency to embrace self-destructive behavior as a way to momentarily alleviate pain or dissatisfaction. Overall, "After Party" delves into the complexities of human emotions, the consequences of missed chances, and the allure of temporary gratification.
