Dosis

In 'Dosis,' Diamante Eléctrico delves into the intoxicating and enigmatic nature of a woman who captivates the narrator. The song opens with a powerful image: 'Ella no le reza a nadie,' suggesting that the woman is independent and self-sufficient, almost divine in her allure. The narrator, in contrast, is utterly mesmerized by her, willing to transform himself for her sake. This sets the stage for a tale of unrequited love and obsession, where the woman remains a mysterious and unattainable figure, described as a 'Diosa en la pantalla' covered by a 'halo de misterio.'

The lyrics further explore the narrator's deep yearning and emotional turmoil. He speaks of wanting to 'beber de su néctar' and having 'probé de su cielo,' indicating that he has experienced moments of bliss with her but is left longing for more. The contrast between their emotional states is stark: while he cries when he leaves, she only cries when she reaches a climax, highlighting the asymmetry in their relationship. This disparity is further emphasized by the lines 'No sabe quién soy / Yo no se quién es,' suggesting a lack of true connection or understanding between them.

The chorus reveals the narrator's coping mechanism: self-medication with 'dosis tuyas,' or doses of her essence that he has saved to avoid missing her. This metaphorical self-medication includes her saliva, love, taste, smile, warmth, skin, and myriad colors, encapsulating the sensory and emotional impact she has on him. The woman is described as belonging to poetry, not to any one person, and having 'más novios que la Virgen María,' underscoring her unattainable and almost mythical nature. The song paints a vivid picture of a love that is both deeply felt and painfully unreciprocated, leaving the narrator in a state of perpetual longing and self-medication.
