Demas

Cielo Razzo's song 'Demas' delves into the existential struggle of finding meaning and purpose in a seemingly empty and sterile environment, symbolized by the 'white room.' The lyrics express a sense of frustration and confusion, as the narrator questions their presence in a place where they feel they cannot achieve anything. The repetition of the phrase 'dentro de ese cuarto blanco' (inside that white room) emphasizes the feeling of being trapped in a space that promises everything but delivers nothing.

The song contrasts the narrator's lack of drive and purpose with someone who has an abundance of 'fury' or passion. This juxtaposition highlights the internal conflict of feeling inadequate or unmotivated in comparison to others who seem to have it all figured out. The lines 'pocos callan en el murmullo, todos se peinan para aparecer' (few remain silent in the murmur, everyone grooms themselves to appear) suggest a societal pressure to conform and present oneself in a certain way, even if it means hiding one's true feelings or struggles.

As the song progresses, the narrator reflects on the passage of time and the urgency to take action before it's too late. The imagery of 'somos arbol y desierto' (we are tree and desert) symbolizes the dichotomy between growth and barrenness, further emphasizing the internal conflict. The final lines, 'te dejo, te llamo, te arranco, ¡¡¡¡¡que te vaya bien!!!!!' (I leave you, I call you, I tear you away, good luck to you!!!!!), convey a sense of resignation and acceptance, as the narrator decides to move on from the futile search for meaning in the white room.

'Demas' by Cielo Razzo is a poignant exploration of existential angst, societal expectations, and the struggle to find one's place in the world. The song's introspective lyrics and evocative imagery resonate with anyone who has ever felt lost or out of place, making it a powerful and relatable piece of music.
