Un nuevo día
Once Tiros Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Será posible que hoy no tenga con qué
Sacarme el frío y el dolor de la piel
Será verdad que es aquí donde acabé
Por refugiarme

Será verdad que ya he perdido el control
Tengo a mis hijos lucrando al limón
Será verdad que es aquí donde acabé
Bajo este puente cruel

No tengo apuro, no hay nadie que me espere a comer
Estoy seguro, que al pedo es que empiezo a envejecer
Pasan las horas, rifando cuánto voy a aguantar
Que mala racha, un nuevo día para olvidar

Será posible que este tipo sea yo
Cargando sólo con todo este dolor
Soy yo o es otro el que se ríe de mí
Y me discute todo

Ese horizonte de miseria total
Será mi vida solo un sueño fatal
Será verdad que es aquí donde acabé
Abandonado y loco

No tengo apuro, ya nadie amanece junto a mí
Estoy seguro, que no se enteran si me morí
A veces viene la cana y no me dejan en paz
Que mala racha, un nuevo día para...

Será posible que hoy no tenga con qué
Sacarme el frío y el dolor de la piel
Será verdad que es aquí donde acabé
Por refugiarme

Ese horizonte de miseria total
Será mi vida solo un sueño fatal
Será verdad que es así como acabé
Abandonado y loco

No tengo apuro, no hay nadie que me espere a comer
Estoy seguro, que al pedo es que empiezo a envejecer




Pasan las horas, rifando cuánto voy a aguantar
Que mala racha, un nuevo día para olvidar

Overall Meaning

The song "Un nuevo día" by Once Tiros has a deep and melancholic mood that reflects the struggles of a homeless and hopeless person, who questions his own existence and doubts the reality of his life. The lyrics suggest that the singer has lost control over his life, as he has to rely on his children to make a living, and that he faces daily challenges such as cold weather, hunger and police harassment. The repeated line "será verdad que es aquí donde acabé" (is it true that this is where I ended up) hints at the sense of resignation and acceptance of his situation, which is contrasted with the rhetorical questions about his identity and the meaning of his life.


The song also portrays loneliness and social isolation, as the singer claims that nobody waits for him to have a meal or cares if he dies. The use of the word "rifando" (gambling) adds a sense of precariousness and uncertainty, as if the singer's life was nothing but a game of chance where he has to try his luck every day. The metaphorical image of the "horizonte de miseria total" (total horizon of misery) reinforces the idea of a bleak and hopeless future, where poverty and desperation are the only constants.


Overall, the song is a poignant and powerful reflection on the harsh realities of poverty and social exclusion, which raises awareness about the importance of empathy, solidarity and social justice.
