Oxígeno

CD9's song 'Oxígeno' is a passionate declaration of love and desire, wrapped in the metaphor of oxygen depletion. The lyrics express a longing to be the one who brings joy and comfort to the beloved, symbolized by the desire to 'endulce tu universo' (sweeten your universe) and be the smile that serves as a good luck charm. The singer wants to be the person who makes everything better, especially on bad days, emphasizing the importance of their presence in the beloved's life.

The chorus, 'Nos vamos pegando y se va acabando el oxígeno' (We get closer and the oxygen runs out), uses the metaphor of running out of oxygen to describe the intensity of their physical and emotional connection. This imagery suggests that their closeness is so consuming that it leaves them breathless, highlighting the depth of their passion. The singer acknowledges that their relationship is not a fairy tale ('No es un castillo de telenovelas'), but it is a place where the beloved's mind can soar, indicating a sense of freedom and escape in their union.

Throughout the song, there is a sense of urgency and inevitability, as the singer believes their connection is destined ('Esto no es nada personal es el destino'). The repeated plea for the beloved to come to them and not waste any more time ('Mejor ya no seguiré esperando') underscores the intensity of their feelings and the desire to seize the moment. The song captures the essence of a love that is both exhilarating and all-consuming, leaving the listener with a sense of the profound impact such a relationship can have.
