Pasaje Hasta Ahí

Fabiana Cantilo's song 'Pasaje Hasta Ahí' is a poetic exploration of life's cyclical nature and the search for meaning amidst chaos. The recurring motif of 'la rueda' (the wheel) symbolizes the inevitable passage of time and the repetitive patterns that define human existence. The request for 'un pasaje hasta ahí' (a ticket to there) suggests a desire for escape or a journey to a place of understanding or peace, a common theme in Cantilo's introspective and often existential lyrics.

The lyrics also touch on themes of loss and resilience. The lines 'Los vi caer, están aquí, los seguiré, sé que vienen por mí' (I saw them fall, they are here, I will follow them, I know they are coming for me) evoke a sense of inevitability and acceptance of life's hardships. The mention of friends knowing 'hasta donde voy a ir' (how far I will go) highlights the importance of companionship and support in navigating life's challenges. Cantilo's assertion that she is not lying ('no estoy mintiendo') reinforces the authenticity and raw emotion behind her words.

The imagery of cities dancing and guarding secrets ('Las ciudades bailan y hace siglos que es así' and 'Las ciudades guardan un secreto que viví') adds a layer of mystique and historical depth to the song. It suggests that the struggles and experiences of individuals are part of a larger, timeless narrative. The reference to a 'rayo' (ray) as a signal and the repeated plea for a passage indicate a longing for clarity and direction. Cantilo's music, known for its emotional depth and lyrical complexity, invites listeners to reflect on their own journeys and the cyclical nature of life.
