Estoy Cansado

Jaguares' song 'Estoy Cansado' is a poignant expression of exhaustion and disillusionment with the world. The lyrics convey a deep sense of weariness, not just with personal struggles but with broader societal issues. The opening lines, 'Estoy cansado de sentir a los muertos preocupados / De haberse ido y al voltear mirar que nada ha cambiado,' suggest a frustration with the lack of progress and change, even in the face of death. This sentiment is further emphasized by the mention of 'mortales confundidos' and the 'prisa por crecer,' indicating a critique of the human condition and the rush to maturity that often leads to mistakes and regrets.

The song also touches on themes of forgetfulness and indifference, particularly in the context of the artist's country. The line 'En mi país está la indiferencia hacia la muerte' highlights a societal numbness to death and suffering, which is described as 'la estúpida miseria.' This critique is not just about the physical state of poverty but also a moral and emotional impoverishment. The repeated plea to be liberated—'Libérame, este tiempo no lo entiendo'—underscores a desire to escape from a world that feels alien and toxic.

The chorus, with its repeated calls for liberation and a return to a place of peace, 'Regrésame a donde pueda dormir en paz,' encapsulates the song's central theme of seeking refuge from a world that feels overwhelming and incomprehensible. The imagery of time as 'veneno' (poison) and the sphere that 'no es mía' (is not mine) further illustrate a profound disconnect and yearning for a different reality. Jaguares, known for their introspective and socially conscious lyrics, use 'Estoy Cansado' to voice a universal feeling of fatigue and the quest for a more meaningful existence.
