Alicia

Enjambre's song 'Alicia' is a poignant exploration of fear, love, and emotional turmoil. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with intense emotions, seeking solace and understanding from someone named Alicia. The opening lines, 'Cubro mi rostro y me digo: No está bien,' set the tone for a narrative steeped in internal conflict and suppressed feelings. The protagonist is trying to maintain composure, swallowing their pride, and waiting for clarity amidst the chaos, symbolized by the dissipating smoke.

The repeated plea to Alicia, 'dime si es nulo el miedo,' reveals a deep-seated terror and a desperate need for reassurance. The protagonist is caught in a cycle of fear and hope, oscillating between the dread of being ignored and the hope that Alicia is merely pretending. This duality is further emphasized in the lines, 'ya no sé si maldecirte o por ti rezar,' showcasing the confusion and helplessness that often accompany intense emotional experiences.

The song also touches on themes of resilience and the struggle to overcome pain. The lines, 'Limpia tus lágrimas, y límpiate el sudor,' suggest a call to persevere despite the hardships. However, the protagonist's fear of never ceasing to love Alicia, 'el día, el más feliz de mi vida sería cuando te deje de amar,' underscores the inescapable nature of their emotional entanglement. This haunting realization that the day they stop loving Alicia will never come adds a layer of tragic inevitability to the song, making it a powerful reflection on the complexities of love and fear.
