Un Blues

In 'Un Blues,' Dios Los Cria delves into the complexities of human connection and the emotional turmoil that accompanies it. The song's protagonist grapples with the challenge of drawing someone closer, expressing a sense of confusion and helplessness. The repeated lines, 'No sé muy bien como hacer que te acerques a mí' (I don't really know how to make you come closer to me) and 'No sé como llegar, cuantas vueltas debo dar' (I don't know how to get there, how many turns I must take), highlight the uncertainty and frustration in trying to bridge the emotional gap between two people.

The lyrics also touch on the theme of existential struggle. The line 'No es suficiente morir y volver a vivir, sólo una vida no, no nos basta para ser feliz' (It's not enough to die and come back to life, one life is not enough to make us happy) suggests that the protagonist feels that a single lifetime is insufficient to achieve true happiness. This sentiment is further emphasized by the imagery of a 'tarde gris' (gray afternoon) and the metaphor of biting a flower, which symbolizes a bittersweet experience—good for the protagonist but bad for the other person involved.

The song also explores the idea of missed opportunities and unspoken emotions. The protagonist admits to not having the courage to speak of love, asking, 'por qué no me das más' (why don't you give me more). This line encapsulates the longing for deeper emotional connection and the regret of not having acted on those feelings. The plea for 'una ayuda' (help) to navigate these emotional waters underscores the difficulty of dealing with such complex emotions alone. Ultimately, 'Un Blues' is a poignant reflection on the challenges of love, connection, and the quest for happiness.
