Kerosene
Inflamable Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Si mis manos se ríen de mí
Y mis piernas se fueron de aquí
Parece que es mentira pero es verdad
No se si es mentira o si es realidad
Recorro todo un metro que antes nunca vi
Cerámicas cuadradas flotan frente a mí
El sol cae liviano y no se dónde están
El sol cae liviano y no se dónde están





Uso mi encendedor, nado de espalda al sol
Corro muy alto y nunca caigo

The repetition of the line "El sol cae liviano y no se dónde están" further emphasizes the singer's sense of confusion and loss.


The final two lines of the verse offer a glimmer of hope, with the singer using their lighter and feeling as though they are swimming or running without falling. These lines offer a contrast to the earlier ones, which convey a sense of uncertainty and disorientation. This shift suggests that the singer may be finding a way to cope with their feelings of being lost and disconnected.


Overall, "Kerosene" is a song that speaks to the experience of feeling adrift and disconnected, while also offering a sense of hope for finding one's way again.
