Se que no se

Callejeros' song 'Se que no se' is a poignant exploration of societal disillusionment and personal introspection. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a world where traditional values and certainties have been upended. The opening lines, 'Se perdió la llave de otro paraíso y se pudieron escapar los prisioneros de la razón,' suggest a loss of innocence and the escape of rationality, setting the tone for a narrative that questions the very fabric of reality. The transformation of angels into demons and the gifting of unsold kisses symbolize the inversion of moral and social norms, highlighting a world in flux and confusion.

The song continues to delve into the complexities of human emotions and societal contradictions. The line 'se levantó al fin el sol a la luna pero no se ven nunca' metaphorically represents the perpetual chase between ideals and reality, where the sun and moon, though part of the same sky, never meet. This imagery is further enriched by references to alcohol-induced illusions and the consuming nature of addiction, as seen in 'se ve por el alcohol linda alguna que es más linda de nuca' and 'se dice que prenderse mucho a la tuca te consume la voz.' These lines underscore the theme of escapism and the fleeting nature of perceived beauty and truth.

Callejeros also critiques the superficiality and hypocrisy within cultural and social structures. The lyrics 'se puso más careta que un cura la cultura del rock' and 'se fue perdiendo mucho más en mi tierra que la paz y el trabajo' reflect a deep disillusionment with the commercialization of culture and the erosion of fundamental values like peace and labor. The recurring refrain 'sé que no sé, pero siempre, siempre opino igual' encapsulates the essence of the song—a recognition of one's own ignorance amidst the chaos, yet an unwavering commitment to voice one's thoughts. This introspective admission is a powerful commentary on the human condition, where certainty is elusive, but the need to express oneself remains constant.
