Padre Sin Fe
Terroristars Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Padre nuestro,
padre muerto
Padre sin padre,
Padre sin nombre,
Padre perdido
Padre perdido en el tiempo
En un sueño lejano,
Que un dia tuvo un niño,
que un dia tuvo,
Padre sin fe!
Me has dejado solo,
Te necesito y no estas,
Me Has fallado,
Hemos fracasado!
Padre impuesto,
Padre falso,
Padre sin compromiso,
Padre negado,
padre dejado,
Padre insuficiente,
Infectando con tu sangre para siempre
Recuerdo de un pasado que no ha existido
Tan cerca y tan lejano como un hijo sin padre,
Padre sin fe!
Me has dejado solo,
Te necesito y no estas,
Me Has fallado,
Hemos abortado!
The song Padre Sin Fe by Terroristars is a powerful and emotional reflection on the relationship between a son and his absent father. The lyrics paint a picture of a father who is physically absent from the son's life, leaving him feeling alone and without guidance. The use of repetition of the word "Padre" in the opening lines emphasizes the father's absence, as the word is both a reference to the son's father and the Spanish word for "father."
The song also touches on the father's failings as a parent, describing him as a father without faith, without a name, and without any commitment to his family. The lines "Padre impuesto, Padre falso" suggest that the father may have been forced into the role of parent, perhaps due to societal expectations or familial pressure, but wasn't emotionally prepared or capable of being a good parent.
Throughout the song, the son expresses his pain and disappointment, feeling as though he and his father have failed one another. The final line "Hemos abortado!" is particularly powerful, as it suggests that the relationship between the son and father has been terminated prematurely, like a pregnancy that is terminated before it can fully develop.
Overall, the song Padre Sin Fe is a poignant reflection on the complexities of parent-child relationships and the emotional toll that absent or inadequate parenting can have on a child.
