Segundos
Golem Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No, no llores males imprudentes
No, no llores sólo quiero verte
Y tu caes y tu caes
Sin mí
Y tu caes y tu caes
Sin mí

Un segundo y ya no puedo verte
Un segundo que no doy por verte
No dispares, no dispares sin mí
No dispares, no dispares sin mí

Un segundo que no doy por verte
Un segundo que no doy por verte




Y tú sales, tú sales de aquí
Y tú sales, tú sales de aquí

Overall Meaning

The main message of Golem's "Segundos" is about loss and the painful feeling of missing someone. The first verse "No, no llores males imprudentes / No, no llores sólo quiero verte" translates to "No, don't cry foolish evils / No, don't cry, I just want to see you." The singer is telling the person not to cry over insignificant things and that all they want is to see them, indicating a longing for their presence. The next two lines "Y tu caes y tu caes / Sin mí" or "And you fall and you fall / Without me" suggest that the person is facing a situation where they are struggling or failing without the support of the singer. The second verse repeats the sentiment of missing someone, but this time a sense of urgency is added in "Un segundo y ya no puedo verte / Un segundo que no doy por verte" meaning "One second and I can't see you anymore / One second that I wouldn't give up to see you." The repeated line "No dispares, no dispares sin mí" or "Don't shoot, don't shoot without me" alludes to the idea that the person might be in danger, and the singer doesn't want them to face it alone.


Overall, the song suggests a deeper emotional connection between two people that goes beyond the surface level. The idea of not wanting someone to suffer on their own is emphasized, accentuating the idea of being there for someone, even in their most difficult times. The repetition of "seconds" implies that time is fleeting, and the singer is aware of the finite amount of time they have with this person.
