A few months later comes the highly anticipated which resulted in recording a first EP of three songs: Merlina, Eterna Elevacíon and Diagnóstico, material that circulates and circulates in a surprise in Mexico and South American countries (Chile, Argentina, Colombia, Bolivia, etc.. )
Then came the first demo consisting of an introduction and six songs, demo that even today is still selling and still circulating on the Internet, piracy, "burning" personal, etc. and there is also a new CD which includes full demo songs and three live version "desenfuchada" ("y me fui," and two previously unreleased: "Trágico ballet" and "Caer").
At first no one would bet on a band like Trágico Ballet, and yet against: being of the province (city almost unknown), only a demo in tow, continuous changes of members among other things. Yet today it is one of the most representative bands in the national projection dark scene even in the other Spanish-speaking countries.
Band loved by many, hated by many others (just have to see the guestbook), ironic satire with music structured out of the royalties, lyrics inspired by the darker side of human psyche, with its members actitutes controversial ...
Octubre
Trágico Ballet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Me estoy ahogando en mi propio veneno
Llueve octubre despacio y me avienta
Pasó otra vez
Aromas de sospecha
Y alientos que sofocan recuerdos
Desequilibran la sombra de un...
Sumergidos en la ausencia
Se rompe el cielo y se cae de dolor
Mi voluntad se disuelve en el nectar
De las pasiones secretas de amor
Mientras descanso en tus brazos
Me has hecho traidor
Comprimimos el momento
Por mil segundos se borra el dolor
La tentacion nos diluye en fragmentos
De humo y alcohol
Seducidos por un beso
La soledad nos avienta a un rincon
La sensación desafió a nuestros cuerpos
Vivos suspiros por miedo al amor
Aun permanece el secreto
Nadie se enteró
Y olvide sentir... para no mentir
A las caricias sinceras que a mi
Alma hoy van a reventar
Y es tan fragil la impotencia
De perderme en otra piel
Que descuide mis latidos y
No pude reaccionar
Cuando el suspiro escapó
The song "Octubre" by Trágico Ballet is about the dark side of desire and the pain it can bring. The first two lines of the song translate to "The darkness of desire, I am drowning in my own poison." The singer is describing the overwhelming feeling of desire that has consumed them, to the point that it is like a poison inside of them. The chorus of the song talks about the rain of October and how it brings back painful memories. The singer is struggling with their desire and is faced with a situation in which they have to choose between their desire for someone and their loyalty. They say that their will is dissolved by the nectar of secret love.
In the second verse, the singer talks about how they and their lover are trying to escape their reality by seducing each other through alcohol and smoke. They are both aware that they are betraying someone, yet they still can't resist the temptation. They try to hold onto the moment and forget about the pain that they are causing. However, as the song progresses, the singer realizes the fragility of their emotions and that they have lost themselves in this experience. They are unsure if they will ever be able to recover from it.
