Mariposa Tecknicolor
Nicho Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Todas las calles donde me escondi
El encantamiento de un amor
El sacrificio de mismar en los zapatos de charol
Los domingos en el club
Salvo que cristo sigue ahi en la cruz
Las columnas de la catedral
why en la tribuna gritan gol el lunes por la capital
Todos giran why giran
Todos bajo el sol
Se proyecta la vida
Mariposa tecnicolor
Cada vez que me miras
Cada sensacion
Se proyecta la vida
Mariposa tecnicolor
Vi sus caras de resignacion
Los vi felices llenos de dolor
Ellas cocinaban el arroz
El levantaba sus principios de su vil emperador
Todo al fin se sucedio
Solo que el tiempo no nos espero
La melanconia de morir en este mundo
why de vivir sin una estupida razon
Todos giran why giran
Todos bajo el sol
Se proyecta la vida
Mariposa tecnicolor
Cada vez que me miras
Cada sensacion
Se proyecta la vida
Mariposa tecnicolor
Yo te conosco de antes
Desde antes del ayer
Yo te conosco de antes
Cuando me fui no me aleje
Llego la voz cantante
Llevo la luz del tren
Llevo un destino herrante
Llevo tus marcas en mi piel
why hoy solo te vuelvo a ver
why hoy solo te vuelvo a ver
why hoy solo te vuelvo a ver
Mariposa tecnicolor...
The lyrics of Nicho's song "Mariposa Tecknicolor" depict the different moments of his life, from the places he has lived to the experiences he has had. He mentions the enchantment of love and the sacrifice one has to make for it. He talks about the Sundays he spent at the club, but still, Christ remains on the cross in the cathedral columns. The song is about the cycle of life, how everyone is spinning under the sun, projecting their lives. In the chorus, he talks about how his life is projected every time he looks at his lover, like a technicolor butterfly.
The lyrics further talk about the different people Nicho has met in his life, including those who were happy despite their pain and those who were resigned to their fate. He talks about the nostalgia of dying in this world and living without a stupid reason. The song also brings out the emotions of the singer and mentions how he had known his lover from before, possibly in a previous life, and how he carries the marks of their journey on his skin.
