In 'desorden del sueño (feat. Depresión Sonora),' ghouljaboy explores the haunting and disorienting world of sleep disorders, blending dark imagery with a sense of existential dread. The song opens with vivid descriptions of insomnia and the eerie events that unfold in the dead of night.

This sets a grim tone, reflecting the chaos and despair that often accompany severe sleep disturbances.

The lyrics delve deeper into the protagonist's struggle with sleep paralysis, a condition where one is unable to move or speak while falling asleep or upon waking.

The recurring imagery of someone hanging from a tree, culminating in the protagonist's own dream of hanging, symbolizes a deep sense of hopelessness and the desire to escape their torment. Through its haunting lyrics and melancholic tone, 'desorden del sueño' paints a poignant picture of the struggles faced by those dealing with sleep disorders and the emotional turmoil that accompanies them.
