Embracing the Risk: A Journey Through Time and Pain
Avella Ink's song 'Corre El Riesgo' delves into the emotional turmoil of facing the end of a significant chapter in life. The lyrics poignantly capture the struggle of saying goodbye, highlighting the difficulty of finding the right way to part ways. The recurring theme of time running out is symbolized by the imagery of dreams and the clock being devoured, suggesting an inevitable end that one must confront.
The song's chorus, 'corre el riesgo o da un paso atrás,' translates to 'take the risk or step back,' encapsulating the central message of the song. It speaks to the listener's inner conflict between moving forward despite the pain or retreating into the safety of the past. The metaphor of a wound that covers the chest but does not bleed signifies a deep, internalized pain that remains unexpressed, further emphasizing the emotional weight carried by the individual.
As the night falls and darkness envelops, the lyrics reflect a sense of despair and the loss of hope, with the line 'la noche cubre tu mirada, todo dejo de brillar' meaning 'the night covers your gaze, everything stopped shining.' Despite this, the song encourages perseverance, urging to leave the past behind and continue moving forward. The final plea, 'no dejes que el tiempo te asfixie más,' or 'don't let time suffocate you anymore,' serves as a powerful reminder to not let the passage of time and the associated pain hold one back from living fully.
