El Enemigo En Casa
Nosoträsh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
duerme a mi lado,
es el único lugare
donde no me da la espalda.
Para escapar de él,
me duermo,
pues hasta el momento
Tengo el enemigo en casa,
me he ganado el cielo.
De nada me sirve ya
si aquí vivo en el infierno.
Y no me puedo escapar,
no tengo donde ir,
tan sólo puedo dormir,
pues hasta el momento,
no sabe entrar en mis sueños.
Creo que a veces cuando sueño
le entran celos,
fuma entonces mi enemigo
mirando al techo,
esperando que yo
despierte
para dejar en mi boca
algo que muerde.
Para escapar de él,
me duermo,
pues hasta el momento,
no puede entrar en mis sueños.
The lyrics of Nosoträsh's song El enemigo en casa convey the experience of living with an internal enemy, which cannot be escaped from. The enemy is described as being present in the house, sleeping next to the singer, and being the only place where the singer feels safe. The only way to escape from this enemy is by sleeping, because it has not yet learned how to enter the singer's dreams. Despite having "won heaven," the singer feels like they are living in hell, as they are unable to escape from their enemy. The singer suspects that sometimes the enemy becomes jealous when they dream and waits for them to wake up so they can inflict harm on them. The only way to escape from this is to keep sleeping, as the enemy cannot enter the singer's dreams.
The song can be interpreted as a metaphor for a toxic relationship or an internal struggle that a person cannot escape from. The "enemy" represents the negative, hurtful feelings or behaviors that a person is unable or unwilling to confront. The fact that the enemy cannot enter the singer's dreams suggests that this person is able to find temporary refuge from their problems while sleeping, but they cannot fully escape from them.
Overall, the lyrics suggest a feeling of helplessness and a lack of control over one's own life. The singer is aware of the problem and is actively trying to escape it, but feels like they are trapped and cannot fully escape.
