El Control
Violeta Castillo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

El control, el tiempo.
No sé lo que perdimos.
Quisiera tener
más tiempo para perder con vos.
El control, el tiempo.
Tal vez fue el presentismo.
No me importa si mentimos.
Porque, no sé,
si me voy igual voy a volver.
El cielo está incendiado
y me afecta.
Porque no nací ayer
pero me hubiera gustado.
El cielo está incendiado
y me afecta.

Cuando haya conocido a todos
voy a tener que seguir con los malos.

No me importa qué color
corresponde a cada cosa.
Azul es tu pasión
y el cielo es rosa.

Porque, no sé,
si me voy igual voy a volver.
El cielo está incendiado
y me afecta.
Porque no nací ayer
pero me hubiera gustado.




El cielo está incendiado
y me afecta

Overall Meaning

The song "El Control" by Violeta Castillo explores the idea of losing control over time and the regret attached to it. The first stanza talks about not knowing what was lost, but wanting to have more time to lose with someone. The line "tal vez fue el presentismo" speaks to a feeling of being too consumed by the present moment and not taking enough time for important things, like relationships. The chorus repeats the idea that the sky is on fire and that it affects the singer. This metaphor could represent a sense of urgency or panic about time slipping away.


The second stanza talks about the inevitability of having to deal with difficult people in life, even after meeting everyone. The line "no me importa qué color corresponde a cada cosa" suggests a disregard for societal norms or expectations. The final lines of the chorus repeat the idea that the burning sky affects the singer, but also adds the line "porque no nací ayer, pero me hubiera gustado." This implies a sense of longing or nostalgia for a time when things were simpler or easier.


Overall, "El Control" is a thoughtful and introspective song that touches on themes of time, regret, and the complexities of relationships.
