Pasado Imperfecto

India Martinez's song "Pasado Imperfecto" delves into the complexities of love, regret, and the struggle to move forward from a relationship that has left an indelible mark. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of two people who are emotionally distant, afraid to fully engage in the 'game' of life and love. This fear creates a barrier, leading to indecision and a sense of being stuck in a liminal space where the past continues to haunt them.

The chorus reveals a poignant dialogue between the two lovers. One partner expresses a desire for a life and love without restraints, while the other is trapped in a state of emotional paralysis, unable to feel anything anymore. This internal conflict is further emphasized by the repeated lines, "Pero me dirás llorando por dentro" (But you will tell me crying inside) and "Que somos pasado imperfecto" (That we are imperfect past). These lines suggest a deep-seated pain and a recognition that their relationship is marred by unresolved issues and unfulfilled promises.

The metaphor of being 'anchored in the middle point' and 'inventing promises without your mouth' highlights the sense of being stuck in a state of limbo, unable to move forward or fully let go. The imagery of 'broken moon' and 'rocks' adds to the feeling of desolation and emotional turmoil. India Martinez's soulful voice and the evocative lyrics combine to create a powerful narrative about the struggle to reconcile with a past that is imperfect and the yearning for a love that is free from constraints.
