La Gossa Sorda Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Vianants d'aquesta vida puta,
sense airbags laterals,
i sense full de ruta.

Equidistants de tot i amb tot.
El trocet de pa més gran,
borinot el que no el vullga.

Vianants de pagament,
en peatges de ciment
d'una autopista absurda.

Volies molar davant de la tele
pero per fer fugir la soletat.
com del cel a la Terra,
has caigut al parany.

Hipotecats per poder viure
a un racó on caure morts.
Viciats dins del seu cicle,
amb desig de tot i més,
il·lusions de creixement,
de presons de vidre.

Volies semblar un cos d'anunci
per fer fugir la soletat.
com del cel a a la Terra,
has caigut al parany.

Radial, despertador,
semàfor, claxon, policia,

anuncis, espentes, crits,
CocaCola, cocaina.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the La Gossa Sorda song "Vianants" talk about the dehumanizing effects of modern society. The verses describe people as pedestrians in a "puta" life, meaning a difficult, challenging and complicated life, but without the possibility of any cushioning protection or clear route map to follow. The lyrics talk about how people in modern society have become equidistant from everything, with no clear direction or purpose.

The song talks about how people live in a cycle of desire and illusion, always wanting more and never being satisfied. They have become enslaved to the system, living in a corner of the world where all they can do is struggle to survive, dead inside their routine, always looking for a way out. The lyrics talk about how people want to be seen as successful and impressive, but are ultimately trapped in a cycle of loneliness and addiction.

The song's chorus lists a series of modern irritations, including radios, alarm clocks, traffic lights, and advertisements. These are all things that contribute to the dehumanizing nature of modern society, and the song suggests that they are like a trap that people fall into. Overall, "Vianants" is a powerful critique of modern society and the way it dehumanizes people, alienating them from their true selves and causing unhappiness.
