Perderlo Todo

Adicta's song 'Perderlo Todo' delves deep into the themes of solitude, exhaustion, and the ultimate surrender of one's self. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with the weight of being alone and the internal chaos it brings. The opening lines, 'El secreto de estar solo y no causar estragos,' suggest that the secret to being alone without causing destruction lies in the mockery that forgetfulness provides. This indicates a struggle with memory and the pain it brings, hinting at a desire to escape from the past.

The repetition of writing and speaking about the same thing, 'Van mil veces que lo escribo y hablo de lo mismo,' underscores a sense of being trapped in a cycle of thoughts and emotions. The protagonist expresses profound fatigue, both physically and emotionally, as seen in 'Estoy cansado, mis piernas se doblan y caeré.' This exhaustion leads to a fall, symbolizing a surrender to the very things they have always denied. The fall is not just physical but also metaphorical, representing a collapse of defenses and the acceptance of vulnerability.

The chorus, 'Tendrás aquello que siempre quisiste de mí,' reveals a poignant moment of giving in. The protagonist offers their bones and weariness, signifying a complete surrender of their essence. The repeated question, '¿Y ahora que harás?' challenges the listener to consider what happens when there is nothing left to fear or desire from the protagonist. The final lines, 'Nada, no hay nada más nuestro que no tener sentido,' encapsulate a sense of nihilism and the desire to feel nothing but the gentle passage of air. This reflects a yearning for peace and the release from the burdens of existence, highlighting the profound impact of solitude and the ultimate surrender to it.
