Dragón

Denna's song 'Dragón' delves deep into the emotional turmoil and internal battles faced by the protagonist. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone grappling with anxiety, self-doubt, and the haunting presence of past traumas. The opening lines, 'No llamé, la puerta estaba abierta / Yo llegué flotando,' suggest a sense of aimlessness and vulnerability, as if the protagonist is drifting through life without a clear direction or purpose. This sets the stage for the recurring theme of feeling isolated and misunderstood, even when surrounded by others.

The chorus, where the protagonist repeatedly calls out to their mother, 'Mamá, me da miedo quedarme atrás / Quedarme ahí abajo con mi ansiedad,' highlights the deep-seated fear of being left behind and consumed by anxiety. This plea for reassurance and support underscores the universal human need for connection and understanding, especially during times of emotional distress. The imagery of being held back by anxiety, 'Me agarró del pie cuando eché a volar,' vividly captures the paralyzing effect of mental health struggles, preventing the protagonist from moving forward and achieving their potential.

The metaphor of feeling like a dragon with a burning chest, 'Me sentí dragón con el pecho quema'o,' symbolizes the intense emotional pain and anger that the protagonist carries within. This powerful image conveys the idea of internal conflict and the struggle to reconcile one's past actions and experiences. The repeated attempts to cleanse oneself, 'Lavo sábanas que tú me habías mancha'o,' reflect the desire for healing and redemption, even as the protagonist feels dragged down by their past. Ultimately, 'Dragón' is a poignant exploration of the complexities of mental health, the longing for support, and the journey towards self-acceptance and healing.
