Mira
La Fuga Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mira esos ojos que no dicen nada
Mira esas manos
Ya cansadas de tanto trabajo
Mira, mira esa boca
Ya no hay palabras para esa vida loca
Mira, mira su corazón,
Apresurado, siempre nervioso,
Algo temerario
Ve caer los días
De este largo y triste calendario
Siempre se equivoca
Hierve la sangre cuando le traicionan,
En su interior no queda nada,
Ni sitio para el dolor
Ya se que nada le hace feliz
Ya se que cree que todo es un cuento
Que le contaron pa hacerle reír
Para después destrozar viejos sueños
Ya se que nada le hace sentir
Ya se que quiere romper el silencio
Gritarle a todos que quiere vivir
Tan solo el viento escucha sus lamentos
Busca una puerta,
Una salida, calma en la tormenta
Se hace preguntas,
A la deriva en un mar de dudas
Desquiciando su vida
Entierra besos, besos y alegrías
Mira, mira su corazón,
Ya se ha parado, jamás pedirá perdón.
Ya se que nada le hace feliz
Ya se que cree que todo es un cuento
Que le contaron pa hacerle reír
Para después destrozar viejos sueños
Ya se que nada le hace sentir
Ya se que quiere romper el silencio
Gritarle a todos que quiere vivir
Tan solo el viento escucha sus lamentos
The song "Mira" by La Fuga is a poignant depiction of a person who has lost all hope in life. The lyrics describe a man whose face and eyes reveal nothing, whose tired hands bear the burden of hard work, and whose mouth is now silent and incapable of conveying his feelings. He is always in a hurry, always anxious and reckless, and sees the days of his life slipping away from him. He is prone to making mistakes and his blood boils when he is betrayed. This person has nothing left inside of him, no room left for pain, and no happiness to be found.
The song then shifts its focus to the man's desire for change. He seeks a door, an escape from the turmoil that has consumed him. He is lost and confused, beset by doubts as he tries to navigate his life. He attempts to bury the kisses and joys of his past while his heart slowly stops beating. He knows that nothing can make him happy, that he is caught in a story that is no longer funny, and that his old dreams have been shattered. He wants to break his long silence and shout to the world that he wants to live, but only the wind hears his cries.
In this song, La Fuga captures the feelings of despair and hopelessness that can sometimes grip us as we navigate the struggles of life. The lyrics are a powerful reminder that even when we seem lost, we can still find the courage to seek change and pursue a better life.
