Ranchoe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tal vez por mucho tiempo
Distorsionado un poco la obscuridad
Un muerto mas anuncia el viento oh.
Naturaleza autodestructiva
Impide valorar
Lo que es la esencia de la vida
Será necesidad
A un jardín de flores
Te ví caer
A un jardín de flores
Olvido olvidar que la tierra es ver el final
Si me detengo a recordar, percibí tu presencia
Hasta el hogar
Te ví caer
A u jardín de flores
Te ví partir
A un jardín de flores
The lyrics of Ranchoe's song "Memento Mori" are deep and thought-provoking. The lines paint a vivid picture of someone who has seen the light of the city at night while the darkness and wind announce another dead soul. The lyrics are symbolic of how life is fleeting, and everything has an end, no matter how much we cling to it. The autodestructive nature of human beings prevents us from valuing the essence of life. Thus, it becomes a necessity to witness death to appreciate the importance of living.
The next verse reflects on the human tendency to forget that the end of life is inevitable. Yet, even when we forget, we perceive the presence of those who have passed away. The last two lines of the verse speak of the beautiful image of someone falling into a garden of flowers. The metaphor can mean that death is a beautiful thing as much as it is a sad one. In the end, the cycle of life continues, and we all will return to the earth someday.
Overall, the lyrics of "Memento Mori" speak to the human experience of life and death. They remind us that we should cherish every moment of our existence and remember that everything has an expiration date, which gives life its beauty.
