Rose in the Vase
Motorama Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Several years
Away from each other
Away from each other
Several years
From highlands and oceans
To lowlands and rivers

Therefore the pain won't stop

I spend my days sitting
In front of the fireplace
You spend your days dying
Like a rose in the vase





New day comes
Days go by

Overall Meaning

The Motorama song "Rose in the Vase" tells a story of separation and the pain that comes with it. The opening lines, "Several years away from each other" speak to a distance between two individuals that has spanned several years. The lyrics continue to describe how they are in different places, both physically and emotionally. The singer describes himself sitting in front of the fireplace, while the other person is "dying like a rose in the vase." This imagery conveys a sense of fragility and perishability, as if the person is slowly withering away.


The lyrics evoke a sense of sadness and longing, as the singer acknowledges that the pain won't stop. It's as if time has passed, but the distance between the two has only deepened the hurt. The final lines, "New day comes, days go by," suggest that life goes on despite the pain. The separation has become a part of their lives, but it doesn't mean the pain will disappear.


Overall, the song "Rose in the Vase" is a poignant reflection on the pain of separation and the difficulty of moving on. The lyrics use rich and evocative imagery to convey the depth of the emotions involved.

Rosa en el Florero

Muchos años
Lejos el uno del otro
Lejos el uno del otro
Muchos años
Desde las tierras altas y los océanos
Para las tierras bajas y ríos

Por lo tanto el dolor no se detendrá
Por lo tanto el dolor no se detendrá
El dolor no se detendrá
[x2]

Me paso el día sentado
Me paso el día sentado
Me paso el día sentado
En frente de la chimenea
Tu pasas tus días muriendo
Tu pasas tus días muriendo
Tu pasas tus días muriendo
Como una rosa en el florero

Un nuevo día viene
Y pasan los días

Por lo tanto el dolor no se detendrá
Por lo tanto el dolor no se detendrá
El dolor no se detendrá
[x2]


Me paso el día sentado
Me paso el día sentado
Me paso el día sentado
En frente de la chimenea
Tu pasas tus días muriendo
Tu pasas tus días muriendo
Tu pasas tus días muriendo
Como una rosa en el florero

Me he dado cuenta que Motorama y Human Tetris al parecer tienen una base de fans fuerte en Latinoamérica, de hecho, más que en Rusia o Europa. Y eso me alegra mucho.

Así es porque hicieron una gira muy larga en México y mucha gente los conoce.

@mikewasaoski4992

@@edgarandre5216 no creo que sea por eso mas bien por la nostalgia del sonido que emanan

@GustavoTamayoPodcast

@@edgarandre5216 que tiene que ver con que hayan estado en México ? Hasta ahora me doy cuenta que estuvieron allá. Nos debe de gustar a los latinos, debe de ser porque su música nos relaja, nos transporta, y nos lleva a un estado de paz mental y/o relajación... Saludos, y excelente banda.

Te diré .... El sonido de los ochentas en primer mundo, solo es apreciados poco en el tercero

I'm so broken right now, making changes in ones life is never easy, I'm letting go of my first love today, and this song came to my mind as the day went by, and all I can say is that a new day always comes, we gotta stay strong
