Capital
Niños del Cerro Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tuve que buscar, tan lejos, tan lejos
Allá en otro lugar, nos quisieron, nos quisieron tanto
Tuve que viajar, tan lejos, tan lejos
Allá en otra ciudad, nos quisieron, quisieron tanto

Y sin pensarlo caigo
Y creo que estoy volviendo a empezar
Las melodías que inventamos estando en la capital
Nos llevaron, de vuelta a casa

Tuve que buscar, tan lejos, tan lejos
De nuestra enfermedad, nos quisimos, nos quisimos tanto
Y te salí a buscar, de noche, con el miedo
No me hicieron daño, me quisieron, me quisieron tanto

Y sin pensarlo caigo
Y creo que estoy volviendo a empezar
Las melodías que inventamos estando en la capital
Nos llevaron, de vuelta a casa

Y sin pensarlo caigo
Y creo que estoy volviendo a empezar




Las melodías que inventamos estando en la capital
Nos llevaron, de vuelta a casa

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Capital" by Niños del Cerro depict a sense of longing and searching for something, both physically and emotionally. The singer describes how they had to go far away, to another place and city, in order to find what they were looking for. They emphasize that they were wanted, loved, and accepted in these distant locations.


The chorus of the song communicates a sense of realization and return. The singer "falls" without thinking, suggesting a surrender to the journey they embarked on. They believe that they are starting over, and it is the melodies they created while they were in the capital that bring them back home. The melodies they invented served as a conduit to reconnect them with their roots and sense of belonging.


The verses further explore the theme of searching and longing. The singer recalls how they had to go far away from their "illness" and that they loved each other so much during that time. They express going out at night to find someone, possibly a lover, with fear but finding solace in the fact that they were not harmed. Again, they emphasize that they were loved and wanted by the other person.


Overall, "Capital" reflects the inherent human desire to search for meaning, love, and belonging. It highlights how the melodies and experiences encountered during their time in the capital acted as a catalyst for self-discovery and ultimately led them back to their true home.
