Nuestro Crimen
Division Minuscula
The Risky Dance of Love and Betrayal
“Nuestro Crimen” by División Minúscula delves into the complexities of a tumultuous relationship, marked by a blend of passion, risk, and betrayal. The song opens with a sense of unease, as the narrator describes a strange current of air and a portion of the sky that fits perfectly between them. This imagery sets the stage for a relationship that is both alluring and fraught with tension. The narrator is willing to take risks, even if it means experiencing pain, as indicated by the line, “Doctor duplique los sedantes y brindemos con formol por mi, por hoy.” This suggests a desire to numb the pain and toast to the present moment, despite the underlying turmoil.
The chorus highlights the fleeting nature of their connection, with the narrator feeling the presence of something significant, only to lose it just before the end. This sense of loss and temptation to start over is encapsulated in the lines, “Y me tientas para volver a comenzar... Y si se siente bien? Quien dice ... no está bien...” The narrator is caught in a cycle of attraction and doubt, questioning whether the intense emotions they feel are worth the potential consequences.
As the song progresses, the narrator acknowledges the involvement of another person, hinting at infidelity and complicity. The line, “He detectado huellas que involucran a alguien más que a mi,” reveals the presence of another party, yet the narrator and their partner are described as skilled accomplices, leaving no trace or evidence. This metaphor of being “victimas de autores del crimen” underscores the idea that they are both perpetrators and victims in their own emotional crime.
The repeated refrain of “Voy a postar todo a este juego” signifies the narrator’s willingness to gamble everything on this relationship, despite the lack of control and understanding of their partner’s inner turmoil. The song concludes with a sense of resignation and devotion, as the narrator remains at their partner’s feet, ready to risk it all, even if it means losing. This powerful ending encapsulates the themes of love, risk, and the inevitable pain that comes with such intense connections.
