Loca
Immigrasons Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Loca me llaman mis amigos

que solo son testigos

de mi liviano amor.

Loca...
Que saben lo que siento

ni que remordimiento

se oculta en mi interior?



Yo tengo con alegrias

que disfrazar mi tristeza

y que hacer de mi cabeza

las pesadillas huir.

Yo tengo que ahogar en vino

la pena que me devora...

Cuando mi corazón llora

mis labios deben reir.



Yo, si a un hombre lo desprecio,

tengo que fingirle amores,

y admiración, cuando es necio

y si es cobarde, temores...

Yo, que no he pertenecido

al ambiente en que ahora estoy

he de olvidar lo que he sido

y he de olvidar lo que soy.



Loca me llaman mis amigos

que solo son testigos

de mi liviano amor.

Loca...

Que saben lo que siento

ni que remordimiento

se oculta en mi interior?



Alla, muy lejos, muy lejos,

donde el sol cae cada dia,

un tranquilo hogar tenia

y en el hogar unos viejos.

La vida y su encanto era

una muchacha que huyo

sin decirle donde fuera...

y esa muchacha era yo.



Hoy no existe ya la casa,

hoy no existen ya los viejos,

hoy la muchacha, muy lejos,

sufriendo la vida pasa.

Y al caer todos los dias

en aquella tierra el sol,

cae con el mi alegria





y muere mi corazón.

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Loca by Immigrasons set the stage for a lamentation of the weight that comes with the expectations of society. The singer laments the fact that their friends ridicule them for their carefree love while not understanding the pain that they hide beneath the surface. The singer goes on to explain that they have to hide their sadness behind joys and drown their sorrows in wine so as to maintain a facade of happiness to the world. The second verse reveals that the singer was once happy, in a loving home with happy parents. However, they had to flee without a trace, leaving everything behind. Now they suffer as their days pass in sorrow in a faraway land. The closing line about their joy dying with the setting of the sun brings the song full circle.


Overall, Loca is a song about the burden of expectation and the weight it can place on an individual. It speaks to the experience of migrants who have had to leave everything, including their sense of self, to start anew in a foreign land. The song is a lamentation about what needed to be left behind, and the emotional turmoil that comes with starting over.
