2+2=3
Sordromo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Creo estar del otro lado
del que nunca me separo
y tu boca es una herida
que corta en cualquier dirección

2 y 2 es 3

cada vez es más difícil repararlo
cuando dejás en mil pedazos cuanto ves

es tan frágil lo que queda tras caer
y haber comprado otra mentira del millón

2 y 2 es 3

Sé que ésto es la locura
ya ni salva la ironía
cuando escupas para arriba
seguro sabrás donde correr

2 y 2 es 3

cada vez es más difícil repararlo
cuando dejás en mil pedazos cuanto ves
es tan frágil lo que queda tras caer
y haber comprado otra mentira del millón

2 y 2 es 3

La certeza se esfumó
y vale cero prometer
los sentidos ya no sirven de guía
y qué importa cuando yo
compraré otra ilusión por la cual
morir

2 y 2 es 3

cada vez es más difícil repararlo
cuando dejás en mil pedazos cuanto ves




es tan frágil lo que queda tras caer
y haber comprado otra mentira del millón

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sordromo's song "2+2=3" are reflective and introspective, exploring the fragility of truth and the disillusionment that can come with it. The opening lines suggest a feeling of being on the other side of something, perhaps a realization or a change in perspective, but one that the singer cannot separate themselves from. The line "tu boca es una herida" (your mouth is a wound) implies that the truth, or something said by someone else, has caused pain or difficulty. The line "que corta en cualquier dirección" (that cuts in any direction) suggests that the effect of this truth or statement is far-reaching and unpredictable.


The refrain of "2 y 2 es 3" (2 plus 2 equals 3) is repeated throughout the song, creating a sense of confusion and disorientation. This mathematical equation, which is obviously incorrect, serves as a metaphor for the idea that what we once thought was true no longer adds up. The lines "es tan frágil lo que queda tras caer / y haber comprado otra mentira del millón" (what remains after the fall is so fragile / and having bought another million lies) suggest that the singer has been let down or disappointed by something, and that what remains after this disappointment is delicate and easily broken.


The final verse of the song expresses a sense of hopelessness and resignation. The line "los sentidos ya no sirven de guía" (the senses are no longer a guide) suggests that the singer is lost and unsure of how to navigate the world. The line "compraré otra ilusión por la cual / morir" (I will buy another illusion for which / to die) suggests that the singer has given up on finding truth or meaning, and is resigned to living in a world of falsehoods.
