Amnesia
Los Fabulosos Cadillacs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tu cara pesa en mi memoria
Una tonelada de miedo
Y se me cerraron los puños
En esta suerte de desierto
Fuego otra vez
No me importa si volvés pero que no sea hoy
Fuego otra vez
De la casa del ayer Siento, no sé donde estoy
El humo cubre las ventanas
Escucho el grito del deseo
Y permanezco casi inmóvil
Ante el embate de lo nuevo
Porque un hombre siempre sabe como escapar
Hacia la nada

Directo a la nada proa hacia la nada
Fuego otra vez
No me importa si volvés pero, que no sea hoy




Fuego otra vez
De la casa del ayer siento, no se donde estoy

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Los Fabulosos Cadillacs's song Amnesia describe a person trying to erase the memory of a past lover. The weight of the memories of their face and the fear they brought into the relationship feel like a ton of weight on the singer's mind. The feeling is so heavy that the singer's fists became tight in this desert of emotions. The fire represents the passion of this past relationship, which is still not gone from the singer's mind. They ask for a chance to relive that passion again but not now. The smoke covering the windows of the house of the past lover and the scream of desire make the singer feel confused and almost immobile. It seems like the singer is torn between the past and the future, but the fear of the unknown tells them to run toward nothingness, to escape from it all.


The theme of Amnesia is relatable to anyone who has gone through the breakup of a relationship. The song highlights the struggle of some people who want to keep their memory alive and relive the past passion, while others want to escape from it and head toward the unknown. This song inspires the listener to question their fear, passion, and what they really want from their memories and relationships.
