Decadencia
hйroes del silencio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La caída pierde altura por momentos
El templo del sol estallo
Nunca podre saber
Si la cruz es salvación
La casa iluminada espera que alguien entre
El martirio inocente que siempre se ha de
El templo del sol estallo
Nunca podre saber
Si la cruz es salvación
Es la mala hora
Condenado estoy
Es la mala hora
Condenado estoy
Cien pájaros hambrientos
Anuncian la aurora
Mi jodida suerte termino
Y en tu ausencia la paredes
Ee pintaran de tristeza
Y enjaulare mi corazon entre tus huesos
Y en tu ausencia la paredes
Se pintaran de tristeza
Y enjaulare mi corazon entre tus huesos
Dejadme oir como late el corazon
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Rockin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Rockin' all the time
Ohhh Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine
Hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't never caught a rabbit
Cryin' all the time
And you ain't no friend of mine
Que lejos estoy del suelo
Donde he nacido
Inmensa nostalgia invade mi pensamiento
Y al verme tan solo y triste
Cual hoja al viento
Quisiera llorar quisiera morir
Como Kurt Cobain de sentimiento
Pero no olviden
Supervitaminarse y mineralizarse
Porque la decadencia esta prohibida
En nuestras jodidas mentes
La decadencia esta prohibida
La decadencia esta prohibida
La decadencia esta prohibida
La caida pierde altura
Por momentos, por momentos
La caida pierde altura
Momento a momento, a momento a momento
The song "Decadencia" by Héroes del Silencio is a haunting and somber reflection on the human experience. The lyrics speak of the forbidden nature of decadence, the fleeting nature of life, and the desire to preserve one's legacy after death. The song opens with the line "La decadencia está prohibida en tu mente" (Decadence is forbidden in your mind), which sets the tone for the rest of the piece. The singer seems to be grappling with the mortality of human experience, and the limits that are placed on our ability to control the course of our lives.
The central image of the song is that of the "templo del sol" (temple of the sun), which is described as "estall[o]" (exploding), leaving the singer unable to truly understand the nature of salvation. The idea of the temple of the sun exploding could be interpreted as a metaphor for the fragility of human existence, and the inevitability of our mortality. The song ends on a note of resignation, with the singer accepting their fate and acknowledging that they are "condenado" (doomed) in the face of the forces of decay and time.
