Pasan Las Horas

The song 'Pasan Las Horas' by Guasones, an Argentine rock band known for their heartfelt lyrics and rock melodies, delves into themes of time, loss, and the consequences of one's actions. The lyrics poetically describe the relentless passage of time, symbolized by days and nights filled with excesses. These excesses hint at a life lived on the edge, possibly filled with hedonistic pursuits, which often come with a cost.

The song's narrator reflects on past relationships and the impact of personal vices on these connections. The repeated mention of 'tus vicios, los mios' (your vices, mine) and the intertwining of sexuality suggest a shared complicity in whatever led to the current state of regret. The phrase 'hoy mi pasado me vuelve a atrapar' (today my past catches up with me again) indicates a sense of being haunted by past choices and the inability to escape their consequences. The mention of looking at the stars and feeling that something has gone indicates a poignant moment of realization and loss.

The chorus emphasizes the theme of learning from mistakes, or rather the failure to do so. The narrator acknowledges that their errors led to losing someone important and that both parties are now lost to each other. The line 'siento que te vas' (I feel that you are leaving) captures the essence of the song—a lingering sense of departure and the emotional distance that has grown between the narrator and the person they care about. The song is a lament, a reflection on the passage of time and the enduring impact of our choices on our relationships.
