Mediodía

Adicta's song 'Mediodía' delves into the complexities of time, emotion, and personal struggle. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person caught in the liminal space between morning and night, symbolizing a broader existential journey. The phrase 'Aún me falta escribir lo mejor' suggests a sense of incompleteness and the anticipation of something greater yet to come. This feeling is compounded by the impatience and frustration expressed through 'unas veces me vuelvo impaciente, golpeo la pared,' indicating a struggle against stagnation and the desire for progress.

The recurring line 'No me digas que no voy, que soy lento' reflects a defensive stance against external judgments and societal pressures. The metaphor of 'empezar a quemarse' (starting to burn) signifies the intense emotional and psychological toll of facing one's fears and the courage required to break the silence. The fear of remaining unheard ('el miedo a quedar en callado') is portrayed as more daunting than the fear of taking risks ('más que el de nadar, sin saber'). This highlights the internal conflict between the desire for expression and the fear of vulnerability.

The juxtaposition of 'En lo que va del mediodía está la noche' encapsulates the duality of existence, where moments of clarity and darkness coexist. The heart, described as living 'cien años siendo pobre,' symbolizes enduring hardship and emotional poverty. Despite this, the narrator asserts their resilience, refusing to ask for pity ('no está en mí pedir piedad') and determined to confront their journey head-on ('Contaré el final, voy por tí, y nunca estás'). This poignant declaration underscores the relentless pursuit of meaning and connection, even in the face of absence and unfulfilled desires.
