Hace Tiempo

In 'Hace Tiempo,' Diecis1e7e delves into the emotional turmoil that follows the end of a significant relationship. The song's lyrics are a poignant reflection on the confusion and pain that accompany a breakup. The narrator grapples with the uncertainty of whether to hold on to the memories or to let go entirely. This internal conflict is evident in lines like 'Hace tiempo que no sé, si quedarme u olvidarte,' which translates to 'It's been a while since I knew whether to stay or forget you.' The song captures the essence of a love that once was, now overshadowed by the bitterness of parting ways.

The recurring theme of destruction and loss is palpable throughout the song. The narrator laments the death of what they built together, symbolized by the line 'Lo que construimos murió y a nuestro sol eclipso,' meaning 'What we built died and our sun eclipsed.' This metaphor of an eclipsed sun vividly illustrates the darkness that has enveloped their once-bright relationship. The repeated questioning of 'Porque será, porque te fuiste' ('Why did you leave?') and 'Porque será, porque volviste' ('Why did you come back?') underscores the narrator's struggle to understand the reasons behind the breakup and the subsequent return, which only brings more confusion and pain.

Diecis1e7e's musical style, characterized by its emotive and introspective lyrics, enhances the song's melancholic tone. The artist's ability to convey deep emotional experiences through simple yet powerful language resonates with listeners who have experienced similar heartbreak. The song's exploration of themes such as betrayal, loss, and the search for closure makes it a relatable and moving piece. The transformation of the loved one from a source of joy to a figure of coldness and deceit is poignantly captured in the lines 'Si tu sonrisa la cambiaste por esa fría expresión, ya no sos vos' ('If you changed your smile for that cold expression, you're no longer you').
