The Silent Cries of Innocence in a Chaotic City

Invisible's song "Irregular" delves into the profound and often overlooked cries of innocence amidst the bustling and indifferent city life. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a city that either remains silent or continues its relentless pace, oblivious to the cries of those who suffer within its heart. This juxtaposition of the city's indifference against the desperate plea for understanding highlights a deep sense of alienation and misunderstanding. The phrase "clamor de un grito de inocencia" (the clamor of an innocent cry) suggests a yearning for recognition and empathy in a world that seems to have lost its way.

The song further explores the theme of existential struggle through the metaphor of a theatrical performance. The "telones de esta farsa" (curtains of this farce) symbolize the superficial and deceptive nature of societal norms and expectations. The mention of the "Misterio Eterno" (Eternal Mystery) shaking anxiously behind these curtains suggests a deeper, perhaps divine, truth that is obscured by the facade of everyday life. The reference to God and his troupe bleeding from the same veins underscores the shared suffering and vulnerability of all beings, hinting at a universal connection that transcends the superficial divisions imposed by society.

The imagery of a head falling to its knees and a belly rolling through traffic, described as "irregular," evokes a sense of chaos and disarray. This powerful visual metaphor captures the disintegration of the individual amidst the relentless and often brutal flow of urban life. The irregularity of the traffic serves as a symbol of the unpredictable and often harsh realities that individuals must navigate, further emphasizing the theme of existential struggle and the search for meaning in a seemingly indifferent world.
