no logro entender
extraño lo que no pude ver
Ando despacio, suelo desaparecer
cerca de lo que no es hoy
Algún fracaso puede ausentarte, no...
No hay señal, no puedes conectar
un naufragio, un lento pestañear
me adormeceré para celebrar
Ando despacio, suelo desaparecer
cerca de lo que no es hoy
algún fracaso puede ausentarte, no...
un naufragio, un lento pestañear
me adormeceré para celebrar.
un naufragio, un lento pestañear
me adormeceré para celebrar
Que haz hecho hoy
que haz hecho hoy...
Un naufragio, un lento pestañear
me adormeceré para celebrar.
un naufragio, un lento pestañear
me adormeceré para celebrar.
"Pan De La Tarde" by Weichafe is a song that explores the difficulties in understanding love and the constant search for it. The opening lines, "Cuando hablas de amor, no logro entender, extraño lo que no pude ver" (When you talk about love, I can't understand, I miss what I couldn't see), suggest that the singer struggles to comprehend the concept of love, perhaps due to past disappointments or heartbreaks. The repeated lines, "Ando despacio, suelo desaparecer, cerca de lo que no es hoy, algún fracaso puede ausentarte, no..." (I walk slowly, often disappear, close to what is not today, some failure could make you absent, no...) highlight the singer's introspective nature and tendency to withdraw from the world around them.
The song also touches on the idea of escaping from reality, as evidenced in the lines "me adormeceré para celebrar" (I'll fall asleep to celebrate) and "un naufragio, un lento pestañear" (a shipwreck, a slow blink). These lines suggest a desire to avoid the complications of everyday life and to instead find solace in sleep or other forms of escape.
Overall, "Pan De La Tarde" is a reflective and introspective song that delves into the complexities of love and the difficulties of understanding it fully.
