Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
y aún se retuerce,
y así lo arrastro por toda la noche,
él nunca se duerme.
Sé que hay loco muy dentro de mí
y es una amenaza,
y si lo suelto se tira a los coches,
Mejor será que nunca lo suelte,
no quiero perderlo, no quiero perderte,
no quiero perderlo, no quiero perderte.
Sé que hay loco muy dentro de mí
que aúlla canciones,
y ya no sé si ahora sólo soy yo
quien toma las decisiones.
Sólo me canta y me obliga a seguir
si quiero dormir,
vive en mi cuerpo enjaulado
y no tiene miedo a morir.
Mejor será que nunca lo suelte,
no quiero perderlo, no quiero perderte,
no quiero perderlo, no quiero perderte,
no quiero perderlo, no quiero perderte,
no quiero perderlo, no quiero perderte.
No quiero perderlo, no quiero perderte,
no quiero perderlo, no quiero perderte.
The lyrics of "No Quiero Perderte" by Elodio y Los Seres Queridos can be interpreted in different ways. On one level, the song can be seen as an exploration of the internal struggle of the artist's psyche. The "loco muy dentro de mí" or crazy deep inside, refers to a part of the artist's personality that is wild and untamed. This wildness is constantly battling to be released and set free, but the artist knows that it could be dangerous if it is allowed to take over. The lyrics convey that this part of the self is not easily tamed, and even in the quiet of the night, it continues to rage inside the artist.
On another level, the song can also be related to relationships. The "loco" or wildness inside the artist may also be a metaphor for the passion and intensity of love. The artist recognizes this, and knows that if it were to be unleashed, it would cause chaos and destruction. Thus, the artist wants to keep that wild passion caged, fearing that the relationship may be lost if it overpowers them.
Overall, "No Quiero Perderte" reflects on the difficulty of maintaining control of the self and relationships. The artist recognizes that there are parts of themselves that are difficult to control, but simultaneously know that it is necessary to do so to protect what is important.
