Decidir

Disidente's song 'Decidir' delves into the complex emotions of self-discovery, inner turmoil, and the pain of letting go. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with their identity, symbolized by the 'rostro que esconder' (face to hide) that 'no deja de sangrar' (doesn't stop bleeding). This imagery suggests a deep, ongoing internal struggle that is both painful and inescapable. The line 'una sola situación corta la respiración' (a single situation takes my breath away) further emphasizes the intensity of this emotional conflict.

The chorus, 'Hoy miraré al sol hasta quedarme ciego' (Today I will look at the sun until I go blind), is a powerful metaphor for seeking clarity or truth, even at the cost of personal suffering. This act of looking at the sun can be interpreted as a desperate attempt to find meaning or resolution, despite the inevitable pain it brings. The mention of 'toma esta mitad' (take this half) and 'tal vez por ti ya no estaré' (maybe for you, I won't be here anymore) suggests a sense of sacrifice and the possibility of moving on from a relationship or situation that has caused significant distress.

The song also touches on themes of change and moving forward. Lines like 'Cambiaré mi dirección' (I will change my direction) and 'hoy aprendí a olvidar' (today I learned to forget) indicate a desire for transformation and healing. However, the lingering thought 'esta vez no dejas de pensar en mí' (this time you can't stop thinking about me) reveals the difficulty of completely letting go. The closing lines, 'Recuerda que te puedes quedar sin nada' (Remember that you can end up with nothing) and 'A veces creo que soy normal y tú algún día serás feliz' (Sometimes I think I am normal and you will be happy someday), reflect a bittersweet acceptance of the situation and a hope for future happiness, both for the self and the other person involved.
