Billy
No Somos Marineros Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Esperé al final
Para reorganizarme
Pude encontrar
El desprecio en tu parte

Que se muera
La valentía
No es una razón
Solo es una deuda

Quiero dejar
De hablar por ti
Me podría resignar
Me volví
Un pedestre más
Parecido un poco a ti

¿Quién
Crees?

¿Quién crees que eres?
¿Crees que puedes fingir?
¿Quién crees que eres?
¿Que te pareces a mí?

¿Quién crees que eres?
¿Crees que puedes fingir?




¿Quién crees que eres?
Te pareces a mí

Overall Meaning

In No Somos Marineros's song "Billy," the singer expresses feelings of disappointment and resentment towards someone they had trusted and admired. The lyrics reflect a sense of betrayal, as if the person in question had failed to live up to the singer's expectations or had shown their true colors at the end of the relationship. The opening lines, "Esperé al final / Para reorganizarme" (I waited until the end / To reorganize myself), suggest that the singer had been trying to make things work despite their misgivings until they could no longer ignore their doubts.


The chorus, with its repeated questions of "¿Quién crees que eres?" (Who do you think you are?), hints at the singer's frustration with the other person's behavior. The line "Quiero dejar / De hablar por ti" (I want to stop speaking for you) suggests that the singer had been making excuses or covering up for the other person's actions, but now feels the need to distance themselves from the situation. The final lines, "Te pareces a mí" (You resemble me), suggest that the singer may see something of themselves in the other person, either in their flaws or in their willingness to deceive.


Overall, "Billy" is a song about disappointment, disillusionment, and the need to break away from unhealthy relationships. The lyrics are introspective and contemplative, with a sense of resignation that suggests the singer has accepted things for what they are and is ready to move on.
