Aunque Respires
Levítico Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Quien lo iba a decir
Tanto tiempo ha pasado
Y sigo pensando en ti
Aunque respire no me siento para nada vivo,
Porque mi vida fuiste tu
Aunque callaste eso no implica que no lo hayas dicho
Ya no quiero soñar
Ya no quiero seguir
Pensando en lo que paso
Y en lo que pude sentir
Cada vez que te recuerdo
Me doy cuenta que estoy muerto
Quiero verte suplicando todo lo que suplique
Aunque respire no me siento para nada vivo,
Porque mi vida fuiste tu
Aunque callaste eso no implica que no lo hayas dicho
Con el silencio viviré
The lyrics of Levitico's song Aunque Respires describe the singer's lingering feelings for a past love. Despite the passage of time ("Tanto tiempo ha pasado") and the fact that the person they loved has remained silent ("Aunque callaste eso no implica que no lo hayas dicho"), the singer cannot help but continue to think about them. The repetition of the line "Aunque respire no me siento para nada vivo" ("Even though I breathe, I don't feel alive at all") suggests that the singer feels like a part of them has died due to the unrequited love they still feel.
The chorus also reveals the intensity of the singer's emotions towards the person they loved, with the line "Porque mi vida fuiste tu" ("Because you were my life"). The second verse expresses a desire to move on from these feelings ("Ya no quiero soñar / Ya no quiero seguir / Pensando en lo que paso / Y en lo que pude sentir"), but it becomes clear that this is easier said than done; every time the singer remembers their love, they feel dead again ("Cada vez que te recuerdo / Me doy cuenta que estoy muerto").
The final line, "Con el silencio viviré" ("I will live with the silence"), suggests that the singer has accepted the other person's lack of response or closure and will continue to exist in this state of unrequited love. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of heartbreak and a struggle to move on from a past love.
