Carpe Diem
Silica Gel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oto sorbo amargo de realidad.
Los instantes se van de las manos
Y la locura se encuentra en la libertad.
No quiero pasar ni un diás más
Sin poder estar a tu lado.
Olvidemos el momento que se ha presentado
Carpe diem
No te compliques y déjate llevar.
Carpe diem
Toma la vida como un juego y nada más.
Quita esa máscara que cubre tu mente
Desata lo prohibida que hay en tí.
El destino guiará nuestros pasos
En un viaje de nunca acabar.
No quiero que pases ni un diá más
Malgastando tu tiempo en silencio
Al lado de gente que na puede ver
Ni mostarte ningún sentimento
Por eso ven y salta gritando...
The lyrics to Silica Gel's song "Carpe Diem" speak to the fleeting nature of time and how easy it is to let life slip through our fingers. The first verse describes the bitter taste of reality and the way in which time can slip away from us. The second verse speaks to the desire to not waste any more days without the person they love. The chorus tells the listener to seize the day and embrace life as a game. The bridge encourages the listener to remove any self-imposed limitations and embrace the journey ahead with an open mind.
Overall, the song is about living in the moment and not letting life pass us by. It urges the listener to be present, take risks, and embrace their desires without reservation. It is a call to action to let go of fear and embrace life with a sense of reckless abandon.
