Parece

Babasónicos' song 'Parece' delves into the complexities of a fleeting and uncertain love. The lyrics paint a picture of two individuals who find solace in their shared distrust of the world around them. This mutual skepticism creates a bond, allowing them to connect on a deeper level. The line 'parece que nos entendemos porque desconfiamos de las mismas cosas' suggests that their understanding of each other is rooted in their shared doubts and fears. This connection is further emphasized by their ability to 'coincidir en todos los detalles,' indicating a profound synchronicity in their thoughts and actions.

The song also explores the transient nature of their relationship. The imagery of 'delirar la calle' and 'al abrigo de la lluvia' evokes a sense of fleeting moments of joy and intimacy, shielded from the harsh realities of the world. However, this temporary refuge is threatened by the inevitable arrival of daylight, symbolizing the end of their ephemeral love. The line 'algún destello anunciará que nuestro amor no tiene porvenir' serves as a poignant reminder that their love is doomed from the start, with time itself 'al acecho de los dos,' lurking and waiting to bring their relationship to an end.

In 'Parece,' Babasónicos masterfully captures the bittersweet essence of a love that is both intense and doomed. The song's melancholic tone and vivid imagery resonate with anyone who has experienced a love that feels both deeply meaningful and inherently transient. The lyrics invite listeners to reflect on the nature of their own relationships and the ways in which shared fears and doubts can both unite and ultimately separate us.
