A Medio Soñar

El Ultimo De La Fila's song 'A Medio Soñar' is a poetic exploration of escapism and the longing for a more vibrant, dreamlike existence. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a world that is half-awake, where the boundaries between reality and dreams blur. The opening lines, 'Cuando el mundo adormecido empieze a soñar,' suggest a transition from a mundane, sleepy world to one filled with electric winds and divine secrets. This sets the stage for a journey where the protagonist seeks solace and healing in a dreamlike state, symbolized by the 'analgésico' that can cure their woes.

The imagery of angels delivering pizzas and the protagonist asking their partner to become 'líquida como un sueño a medio soñar' adds a surreal, almost whimsical quality to the song. This surrealism is further emphasized by the request to 'baila para mí, fresca como la lluvia de abril,' which evokes a sense of renewal and escape from the harshness of winter. The protagonist sees their partner as a 'virgen en medio del mar,' a pure, untouched island, while they are the clumsy tourist, highlighting a sense of admiration and longing for something unattainable.

The chorus, 'Quiéreme y sácame de aquí,' is a plea for love and escape from a 'mundo gris,' a gray, lifeless world. The protagonist's prayer, 'mi canto es el rebuzno de un dios demasiado gris y demasiado loco,' reflects a sense of despair and madness, yet there is a promise of change and humility. The song ends as it begins, with the world starting to dream and the electric wind carrying divine secrets, suggesting a cyclical nature of longing and escape. 'A Medio Soñar' is a beautiful, melancholic reflection on the desire to break free from the mundane and find solace in dreams and love.
