The Inner Struggle of Existence in 'Gárgara larga'

Divididos' song 'Gárgara larga' delves into the complexities of human existence, exploring themes of resistance, regret, and the fear of both death and loneliness. The lyrics reflect a deep internal conflict, where the narrator expresses a desire to stand against everything and to always want more. This yearning for rebellion and resistance is juxtaposed with a wish to be a soldier who does not have to fight, symbolizing a paradoxical desire for both action and peace.

The repetition of wanting to be 'fusilado para no esperar' (executed to avoid waiting) highlights a profound impatience and perhaps a fear of the unknown future. This line suggests a preference for a definitive end over the anxiety of anticipation, which can be interpreted as a metaphor for the human condition of grappling with uncertainty and the passage of time.

The chorus, with its repeated 'pero aún no se' (but I still don't know), underscores the narrator's unresolved fears and doubts. The ambiguity of whether the fear is of death or loneliness speaks to a universal human experience. It reflects the existential dread that many people face, questioning what is more terrifying: the end of life or the isolation that can occur within it. Divididos, known for their powerful rock sound and introspective lyrics, encapsulate these profound themes in 'Gárgara larga,' making it a poignant reflection on the human psyche.
