Battling Inner Demons: The Struggle Within

Estopa's song "Monstruos" delves deep into the emotional turmoil and inner battles that many people face. The lyrics juxtapose the beauty of life with the singer's personal struggles, creating a poignant contrast. The song begins by highlighting the simple joys of life, such as love, fun, and nature. However, despite these beautiful aspects, the singer confesses to feeling inexplicably sad and overwhelmed, hinting at a deeper, more complex emotional struggle.

The recurring imagery of looking at one's veins and the metaphor of loading a gun to kill two monsters—agony and emptiness—illustrates the singer's intense internal conflict. These monsters represent the pervasive feelings of pain and void that haunt the singer daily. The act of trying to 'kill' these monsters signifies a desperate attempt to find relief and escape from these overwhelming emotions.

The song also touches on escapism through video games, where the singer finds solace and a temporary reprieve from his troubles. The mention of merging with a Nintendo and having more lives than a cat symbolizes a desire to escape reality and the pain associated with it. This escapism is a coping mechanism, providing a sense of control and distraction from the harshness of real life. Ultimately, "Monstruos" is a raw and honest portrayal of the struggle with mental health, the search for meaning, and the ways people cope with their inner demons.
