Amo Lo Extraño
Sui Generis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Desde hoy, desde ayer
Desde el cielo a los subterráneos
En los extraños
Puedo hallar, puedo ver
El fulgor de lo imaginario
No digas tu nombre, ya no estaré
Desde hace años
Desde un tren a otro tren
Desde un rey hasta un operario
En los extraños
Puedo hallar, puedo ver
El fulgor de lo imaginario
No, no, no me busques, yo no estaré (imaginario)
No quiero volverte a ver (sobre todo, porque-)
Déjame, compréndeme
No hay nada sagrado que quiera ser
Estoy afectado a un amor sin vos
Sin cara, sin religión
No te quiero conocer
No digas tu nombre, ya no estaré
Estoy entregado a un amor sin vos
No digas tu nombre, ya no estaré
(No lo digas, que ya no estaré)
No quiero volverte a ver (sobre todo, porque-)
Déjame, compréndeme
No hay nada sagrado que quiera ser
Estoy entregado a un amor sin vos
Sin cara, sin religión
No te quiero conocer
No digas tu nombre, ya no estaré (no te quiero conocer)
Estoy entregado a un amor sin vos
Amo lo extraño
Amo lo extraño
No quiero arruinarlo, volverlo a hacer
(No quiero volverlo a hacer)
No quiero volverte a ver
(Dicho con buena onda)
The lyrics to Sui Generis's "Amo Lo Extraño" express a love of the strange and unusual. The singer proclaims their love for the strange from today, yesterday, and even in those below ground. They find solace and beauty in the strange and imaginary, despite the fact that they do not want to see or know the person whose love they lost. The singer admits that they are affected by a love without the other person, without a face, and without a religion.
Throughout the song, the singer begs for understanding and comprehension. They assert that there is nothing sacred that they want to be and that they are entirely devoted to a love without the other person. Though the singer identifies that they are in love, they claim that they do not want to ruin it further or see the person they are no longer with.
The song's message demonstrates a love of the unknown and the imaginative. The singer seems to be finding comfort in their love of the strange, even after a significant breakup. The lyrics suggest that beauty can be found in the strange and unusual and that love can be devoted entirely to an abstract concept.
