Me Llaman Abandonao

Danza Invisible's song 'Me Llaman Abandonao' delves into the emotional aftermath of a breakup, exploring themes of freedom, self-discovery, and societal judgment. The lyrics reflect the protagonist's struggle to come to terms with the end of a relationship, acknowledging the pain of separation while also recognizing the necessity of moving on. The repeated line 'Tengo que acostumbrarme a estar sin ti' (I have to get used to being without you) underscores the difficulty of adjusting to life without a loved one, yet it also hints at resilience and the inevitability of change.

The song's chorus, 'Y me llaman abandonao, dicen que vivo equivocao' (And they call me abandoned, they say I live wrong), highlights the protagonist's defiance against societal norms and expectations. Despite being labeled as 'abandoned' and 'wrong,' the protagonist embraces a life of simplicity and freedom, unburdened by material concerns or societal pressures. This rejection of conventional values is further emphasized by lines like 'El dinero y la seguridad no me preocupan' (Money and security don't worry me) and 'Una vida sencilla lo que quiero' (A simple life is what I want).

Metaphorically, the song uses the imagery of ungreased axles ('Que no engrasó los ejes') to symbolize the friction and lack of understanding in the relationship. This recurring metaphor suggests that despite the time spent together, there was a fundamental disconnect that prevented smooth communication and mutual comprehension. The protagonist's journey is one of self-acceptance and liberation, choosing to live authentically even if it means being misunderstood or judged by others. Ultimately, 'Me Llaman Abandonao' is a celebration of personal freedom and the courage to live life on one's own terms, despite the challenges and criticisms that may arise.
