Incertidumbre

Caramelos De Cianuro's song 'Incertidumbre' delves into the complex emotions of uncertainty and longing. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship marked by bittersweet moments and a sense of incompleteness. The opening lines describe a person with 'bitter lips' and 'sad eyes,' suggesting a deep-seated melancholy. The imagery of a 'long neck, like a swan' and a 'lost soul, fallen angel' adds a layer of poetic beauty, indicating that this person holds a significant, albeit troubled, place in the narrator's life.

The song continues to explore the physical and emotional intimacy between the two individuals. Phrases like 'sweat crossed, old story' and 'in some lips, in an ear' evoke a sense of shared history and whispered secrets. The metaphor of 'two streams that burn together' symbolizes their intense connection, yet also hints at the potential for destruction. The recurring theme of 'incertidumbre' (uncertainty) is likened to a 'stream of impossibles' that the other person makes visible, providing a fleeting sense of vitality and hope.

However, the song also acknowledges the transient nature of these moments. The line 'although I know that at the end of the dawn, nothing remains' underscores the ephemeral quality of their encounters. The narrator finds solace in the 'warm and dark' spaces within the other person, even as they are aware that these moments are fleeting. The song captures the essence of living in the moment, embracing the uncertainty, and finding beauty in the impermanent.

'Incertidumbre' is a poignant exploration of the human condition, touching on themes of love, loss, and the search for meaning in uncertain times. Caramelos De Cianuro's evocative lyrics and haunting melodies create a powerful emotional experience that resonates with listeners on a deep level.
