El as
Jero Romero Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mato a la primera, con mi arma de madera. Es tan frágil todo lo que soy.
Con tanto arrepentido por ahí, yo siempre te he elegido para mí.
Media vida entera, y saber lo que me espera. Es más triste y mejor que hoy.
Con tanto arrepentido por ahí, yo siempre te he elegido para mí.
Con tanto arrepentido por ahí, yo siempre te he elegido para mí.
In Jero Romero's song "El", the singer reflects on a past relationship where he and his lover would spend entire nights arguing and discussing things in their own unique way. He then compares that to the present, where everything seems more fragile and dissatisfying. The line "Mato a la primera, con mi arma de madera" (I killed on my first try, with my wooden weapon) could be interpreted as a metaphor for how he may have been too quick to end the relationship early on, with a fragile and imperfect way of handling it.
The singer also muses about all the other people out there who are full of regrets and mistakes in their relationships, but he has always chosen her to be with. The repetition of "Con tanto arrepentido por ahí, yo siempre te he elegido para mí" (With so many regrets out there, I have always chosen you for myself) seems to emphasize the singer's loyalty and commitment to his partner.
Throughout the song, the singer's melancholic tone paints a picture of both longing for the past and acceptance of the present. He recognizes that the past had its flaws, but it was still better than the present. However, he remains loyal to his partner and grateful for what they have.
