Ángeles y Santos

Gallardía's song 'Ángeles y Santos' delves into the emotional journey of breaking free from a deceptive relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of disillusionment and the subsequent quest for self-liberation. The protagonist initially falls for someone who seemed heavenly, as indicated by the line 'Caído del cielo eras.' However, this illusion shatters when they realize that their partner is not the angelic figure they appeared to be, but rather someone who caused pain and suffering, symbolized by 'Que tus alas eran garras que clavaste en mi.'

The recurring theme of escaping to a place 'donde los ángeles no puedan llegar' signifies the protagonist's desire to find a sanctuary free from the falsehoods and emotional manipulation they experienced. This place represents a state of mind where they can heal and regain their sense of self, away from the toxic influence of their former partner. The act of 'sacaré de ese altar' and 'de tus labios yo me voy a escapar' underscores the determination to remove their partner from the pedestal they once placed them on and to break free from their control.

The song also touches on themes of empowerment and self-worth. The protagonist's declaration 'Ya me fui, ya me voy, ya no estoy' is a powerful statement of independence and self-assertion. They recognize that they are better off without their former partner, and they anticipate that their absence will be felt, as expressed in 'Vas a extrañas todo mi amor.' This realization marks a significant turning point, where the protagonist moves from a place of pain and confusion to one of clarity and strength, ready to embrace a future unburdened by past deceptions.
