Cosas perdidas
Super Ratones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
De no ser las cosas que imaginaría
Hay cosas que yo pensaría
Que son esas cosas que nunca diría
Hay cosas que no se perdonan
Y que te abandonan cuando más querías
Y bueno, si de todos modos
Son cosas perdidas
Hay cosas que son peligrosas
Depende del lado que mires las cosas
Si rozan las cosas prohibidas
Eso es lo primero que uno elegiría
Y cuando recuerdo esas cosas
Que no me animé a decirte un día
Y bueno, de todas maneras
Son cosas perdidas
Ay, como duelen las viejas heridas
Ay, como duelen las cosas perdidas
No todo es lo que parece
Las cosas se siguen mezclando por suerte
La cosa se pone espesa
Y seguimos luchando cada vez más fuerte
Hay cosas que muchos hacían
Y por conveniencia cambiaron un día
Y bueno, de todas maneras
Son cosas perdidas
Hay cosas que se prometían
Y fueron del reino de la fantasía
Hay causas perdidas que son cosa seria
Si no te frena la utopía
Las cosas perdidas se encuentran
El día que falta eso que te guía
Y bueno, de todas maneras
Son cosas mías.
The lyrics to Super Ratones's song "Cosas perdidas" speak about lost things that weigh heavily on someone's mind. The opening lines suggest that there are some things that may be suspect, which doesn't fit in with the image someone has created for themselves. Furthermore, there are some things that one may never say, even though they are constantly on one's mind, and these things can lead to forgiveness and the feeling of being abandoned.
The next verse talks about potentially dangerous things, which depend on the way one looks at them. One may be tempted by something that is forbidden, and there may be some things that one never revealed, which can lead to regret. Even though these things are lost, they still have the power to hurt as deeply as old wounds.
The chorus repeats the phrases "ay, como duelen las viejas heridas" (oh, how the old wounds hurt) and "ay, como duelen las cosas perdidas" (oh, how the lost things hurt), emphasizing the pain that comes from losing things.
Overall, the song is about the different kinds of things that people lose in life, either by their own actions or those of others, and how those lost things can continue to have an impact on one's life even if they are never recovered.

There are things that are dangerous and depend on one's perspective. If they touch forbidden things, those are the things that one would choose. Sometimes, when remembering things that one didn't dare say, they are lost things anyway.

Not everything is as it seems, and things luckily keep getting mixed up. Things get complicated, and one keeps fighting harder. There are things that many people used to do but changed for convenience, and they are lost things anyway.
Hay cosas que se prometían
Y fueron del reino de la fantasía
Hay causas perdidas que son cosa seria
Si no te frena la utopía
Las cosas perdidas se encuentran

There are things that were promised but belonged to the realm of fantasy. Lost causes are a serious matter if one isn't stopped by utopia. Lost things are found when one lacks guidance, and they are one's own things anyway.
