Parque Cerrado
Valentín y los Volcanes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Después, el rayo de la desilusión
Dejó despojos, nuestra casa era un parque cerrado.
El parque de juegos, la misma ciudad
Lleno mis valijas de felicidad,
Miro los despojos, nuestra casa era un parque cerrado.
In these poignant lyrics from Valentín y los Volcanes's song "Parque Cerrado," the singer reflects on a shared experience with a loved one, saying "Ya fue, pensábamos lo mismo los dos" ("It's over, we both thought the same"). The initial sense of unity and agreement between the two individuals is a stark contrast to what follows, as the metaphorical "rayo de la desilusión" ("bolt of disillusion") strikes. This sudden disappointment scatters remnants of their once harmonious relationship, leaving behind a feeling of desolation and emptiness. The imagery of "Dejó despojos, nuestra casa era un parque cerrado," ("Left behind remnants, our house was a closed park") conveys a sense of abandonment and loss, painting a vivid picture of a once vibrant and lively place now left deserted and locked away.
The mention of "El parque de juegos, la misma ciudad" ("The playground, the same city") adds layers to the imagery, suggesting a more universal experience of disappointment and disillusionment within the broader context of the city. The singer's emotional baggage is contrasted with the physical act of filling suitcases with happiness, symbolizing the attempt to carry forward memories and moments of joy amidst the ruins of their relationship. The line "Lleno mis valijas de felicidad" ("I fill my suitcases with happiness") underscores the bittersweet nature of memories, where moments of joy and contentment coexist with the pain of loss and heartache.
As the singer gazes upon the remains of what was once their shared home, the repetition of "Miro los despojos, nuestra casa era un parque cerrado" ("I look at the remnants, our house was a closed park") drives home the sense of finality and closure. The use of the metaphor of a closed park reinforces the idea of something once open and accessible now being sealed off and inaccessible. The emotional weight of this imagery captures the sense of isolation and separation that lingers after a significant relationship comes to an end, emphasizing the emptiness and loneliness that can follow in its wake.
Overall, these lyrics from "Parque Cerrado" touch on themes of shared experiences, disillusionment, and the aftermath of a broken relationship. Through evocative language and vivid imagery, the song conveys the complexity of emotions that arise when a once-beloved place or relationship is transformed into a desolate and abandoned landscape. The power of the lyrics lies in their ability to capture the universal feelings of loss, regret, and nostalgia that come with the end of a significant chapter in one's life, resonating with listeners who have experienced similar moments of heartbreak and closure.
