Sombras
La Derecha Lyrics

The opening lyrics of La Derecha's song Sombras are quite intense and melancholy, as they talk about opening up one's veins and pouring out one's blood at the feet of someone they love. The singer says they want to demonstrate just how much they love this person, but they can't love any more than that. After pouring out their blood, they would then die. The song seems to be about unrequited love or an unattainable love, as the singer mentions that the person's blue eyes are closed to them, and they are lost in their own loneliness. The refrain of the song is simply the word "shadows" repeated over and over again, perhaps symbolizing the darkness and emptiness that the singer is feeling.

The second verse of the song is similar in its mournful tone, as the singer talks about being alive but suffering through tears, and feeling like they are in the middle of an unending, horrific drama. However, the lyrics take a sudden turn when the singer says they want to open the person's legs again, but then immediately contradicts themselves with a "more nevertheless". This suggests perhaps a sense of shame or a recognition that the desire is inappropriate, which ties back into the idea of an unrequited or impossible love. The song ends with another repetition of the word "shadows", this time with a drawn-out, wailing tone that seems to emphasize the pain and emptiness that the word represents.

Overall, La Derecha's song Sombras is a mournful meditation on love, loss, and loneliness. The lyrics are intense and melancholy, with a sense of longing and unfulfilled desire that permeates the entire song. Despite the darkness and sadness of the lyrics, however, there is a beauty to the melody and the singer's voice that makes the song all the more poignant.
