Tiempo de Morir

Flema's song 'Tiempo de Morir' delves into the themes of existential despair and the acceptance of one's fate. The lyrics convey a sense of finality and resignation, as the protagonist reflects on their life and concludes that there is nothing left for them. The repeated phrase 'es tiempo de morir' (it's time to die) underscores the inevitability of death and the futility of continuing to struggle against it. This sentiment is further emphasized by the lines 'ya no queda mas nada para mi' (there is nothing left for me) and 'ya no tengo nada que hacer aqui' (I have nothing left to do here), which highlight the protagonist's sense of purposelessness and disconnection from the world around them.

The song also touches on the theme of misunderstanding and alienation. The protagonist expresses a deep-seated resentment towards the world, stating 'Mundo yo nunca te quise a ti porque vos no me entendiste a mi' (World, I never loved you because you never understood me). This line suggests a lifelong struggle with feeling misunderstood and unappreciated, which has ultimately led to the protagonist's decision to embrace death. The realization that it is 'too late' to find happiness or change their circumstances adds a layer of tragic inevitability to the song.

Flema, known for their raw and unfiltered approach to punk rock, uses 'Tiempo de Morir' to explore the darker aspects of the human experience. The band's gritty sound and candid lyrics resonate with listeners who may have felt similar feelings of despair and alienation. The song serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of understanding and empathy in a world that can often feel cold and indifferent.
