Un Momento De Meditación

Attaque 77's song "Un Momento De Meditación" delves into the complex interplay between love, desire, and intoxication. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person whose true feelings of love and longing are only fully expressed under the influence of alcohol. The phrase "La palabra te quiero se me escapa del corazón cuando tomo alcohol" (The words 'I love you' escape from my heart when I drink alcohol) suggests that the protagonist struggles to articulate their emotions when sober, relying on the disinhibiting effects of alcohol to reveal their true sentiments.

The imagery of wanting to embrace and undress the loved one, coupled with the idea of making love while both are drunk, underscores a raw, almost primal desire. This juxtaposition of physical intimacy and emotional vulnerability highlights the protagonist's deep-seated need for connection, which is only unlocked in moments of inebriation. The repetition of the phrase "Enfermo de amor" (Sick with love) emphasizes the intensity and perhaps the unhealthy nature of this obsession.

The song also introduces a contrasting scene with the line "la tv está al mango, un momento de meditación" (the TV is blaring, a moment of meditation). This suggests a chaotic environment where the protagonist finds a fleeting sense of peace or clarity. The mention of a priest giving a sermon while the protagonist and their lover are in bed adds a layer of irony and perhaps a critique of societal norms and expectations. It juxtaposes the sacred with the profane, highlighting the protagonist's internal conflict between societal values and personal desires.
