Otra Historia
Insomnio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No lo intentes no los vas a lograr
Trastas de decirme como hay que actuar,
Pero no es fбcil nada serб igual.
Asimismo, preguntamos, al alrededor...
Si esta bien o mal nunca lo sabrбs,
Ahogado en pequeсos problemas,
Que harбs? Cuando la vida empieze de verdad.
Aunque trates de olvidar,
Es inъtil no lo vas a lograr
Dices que escuchas la voz del destino,
Pero no existe: lo haces tu mismo.
The lyrics of Insomnio's song "Otra Historia" talk about the struggle of trying to escape difficult situations and the futility of seeking advice from others. The opening lines suggest that despite our best efforts to escape, we will not be successful. The second line ("No lo intentes no los vas a lograr") indicates that the singer has tried to escape but has failed. The following line ("Tratas de decirme como hay que actuar") suggests that someone is offering unsolicited advice on how to act, but the singer is unwilling or unable to follow it.
The lyrics go on to say that it is impossible to know whether we are doing the right thing, as there is always another story to tell ("Pues hay otra historia que contar"). The suggestion is that there are always different perspectives and interpretations of a situation, and it can be challenging to determine which one is correct. The final lines of the song suggest that despite feeling overwhelmed by small problems, we must face them head-on because "Cuando la vida empieza de verdad" (when life really begins), we will need the skills we gained from dealing with these smaller issues.
Overall, "Otra Historia" is a song that recognizes the difficulties of life and acknowledges that there are no easy answers or solutions. The lyrics encourage listeners to face their problems head-on and to trust in their own judgement, rather than seeking guidance from others.
