Si Todo Esto Es Lo Que Hay
Los Bunkers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ahora que te lo preguntas
No recuerdas bien ni tu nombre
Lo que es peor, no ves alrededor
Por si no te has dado cuenta
No ha salido el sol
Al menos en tu habitación
Si todo esto es lo que hay
Será mejor que vaya andando
Si todo esto es lo que hay
Si todos mueren en sus propios brazos
Ya no tengo nada más
Ya no tengo nada más que perder
Al menos por última vez
La gente te hablará
Pero no debes tomarla
En cuenta nunca más
Ten presente
Sólo una vez
Que no hay que perdonar
Tú no pides lo que entregas
Siempre es algo más
De lo que pensaste dar
Si todo esto es lo que hay
Será mejor que vaya andando
Si todo esto es lo que hay
Si todos mueren en sus propios brazos
Ya no tengo nada más
Ya no tengo nada más que partir
Al menos muy lejos de aquí
Si todo esto es lo que hay
Será mejor que vaya andando
Si todo esto es lo que hay
Si todos muerden de sus propios labios
Ya no tengo nada más
Ya no tengo nada más que perder
The opening lines of “Si Todo Esto Es Lo Que Hay” by Los Bunkers urge the listener to know what they are going to do. The person who is being addressed does not remember their name and is seemingly in a state of confusion. The surroundings are hazy and dark. The lines, “no ves alrededor” suggests that this person is lost in their own world and is not cognizant of what’s happening around them. The singer points out that the sun has not risen even though it should have by now. In other words, time is fleeting for the person who is being addressed.
The chorus of the song, “Si todo esto es lo que hay” should be taken at face value. The lyrics point out that if this is all that life has to offer then it is better to leave. They are encouraging the listener to cut their losses and walk away. The lines, “Si todos mueren en sus propios brazos” suggest that the song is about a personal struggle that one must come to terms with on their own. The singer has been through this before and wants to impart some wisdom to the listener by telling them not to take the opinions of others to heart.
The song has a sense of despair to it that is enhanced by the guitars and the melancholic melody. It is a song that explores the depths of human emotion and the sometimes bleak reality of life. However, it also serves as a cautionary tale. If you find yourself in a situation where you feel lost or hopeless, take a step back and evaluate what you want out of life. Do not let others dictate your fate. the song is a reminder that sometimes it is better to walk away from a situation and start anew.
