It's Over
Orange Sky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
nadie apuesta más por vos.
Ya nadie se preocupa por el otro
y la desidia nos goleó.
Hay muchas almas que están hambrientas de deseo y de ilusión
y la codicia ni se inquieta
actúa fría y sin pasión
Por las calles las almas sienten
Solo pueden sufrir
Hoy la rutina no nos deja mirar al cielo y ver el sol
y la esperanza está renga, anda golpeando al corazón
Esos fantasmas no soportan vivir en la marginación
llevan tristeza en la jeta y se reprimen sin razón
Por las calles las almas sienten
solo quieren reír y les duele cuando les mienten
Solo pueden sufrir
Tranco a tranco di al mango y mi marote estalló
La indiferencia me desgasta, me destruye la ilusión
Y el veneno que te entra y te revienta la nariz
es tu máscara de barro pa' curar tu cicatriz
Sos tan frágil que la vida no te da una solución
ya no encuentra más motivos pa' ofrecer su corazón
Las agujas van marcando y no hay tiempo de revertir
la miseria que dejaste en mi cerebro al partir.
The song "It's Over" by Orange Sky is a reflection on the state of society and the struggles that individuals face on a daily basis. The title is a clear indication that the songwriter is trying to convey that things are not as they should be, and that there is a need for change.
The first verse starts with the line "Por la ciudad de los sueños rotos, nadie apuesta más por vos" which translates to "In the city of broken dreams, nobody bets on you anymore". This sets the stage for the rest of the song. The songwriter is stating that there is a sense of hopelessness in the city, and that people have lost faith in each other. The next line "Ya nadie se preocupa por el otro y la desidia nos goleó" which means "Nobody cares about each other anymore, and apathy is taking over" further emphasizes this point.
The chorus is where the songwriter tries to capture the emotions of the people living in this city. "Por las calles las almas sienten, solo quieren reír y les duele cuando les mienten" which translates to "On the streets, souls feel, they just want to laugh, and it hurts when they're lied to". Here, the songwriter is saying that people just want to be happy, but they can't because of the lies and deceit they have experienced.
The song then goes on to talk about how routine has taken over, and how hope is slowly dwindling away. The final verse is where the songwriter is expressing his own frustration with the situation. "Tranco a tranco di al mango y mi marote estalló" which can be translated to mean "I gave it my all and now my head exploded". This line is clearly indicating that the songwriter has had enough, and he is at his wits' end.
Overall, the song "It's Over" is a powerful commentary on society and the struggles that people face. The songwriter does an excellent job of capturing the emotions of those who are living in this city of broken dreams.
