Sentido Común

La Bien Querida's 'Sentido Común' delves into the complexities and emotional turbulence of a romantic relationship. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of the internal conflict experienced by the narrator, who is deeply in love yet simultaneously tormented by the uncertainties and demands of their partner. The opening lines, 'Me estás robando horas de sueño, me estoy mintiendo y me lo creo,' suggest a sense of self-deception and sleepless nights, indicating the emotional toll the relationship is taking on the narrator.

The vulnerability of the narrator is palpable, especially in lines like 'Soy vulnerable cuando te encuentro,' where the presence of the loved one leaves them exposed and defenseless. This vulnerability is compounded by the partner's demands, as highlighted in '¿Por qué siempre me pides lo que no tengo?' This line underscores a recurring theme of inadequacy and the pressure to meet expectations that the narrator feels incapable of fulfilling. The song oscillates between moments of intense affection and frustration, capturing the duality of love and the pain it can bring.

The chorus, with its repetition of 'A veces me lleno de rabia, a veces no quiero ni verte,' reveals the narrator's oscillating emotions, ranging from anger to a desire for distance. The raw honesty in 'A veces solo me tranquilizaría pegarte muy fuerte' speaks to the extreme emotional responses that love can provoke. Despite these intense feelings, the narrator's love remains boundless and timeless, as expressed in the closing lines, 'pero como te estoy queriendo, no tiene memoria ni tiene tiempo.' This suggests that, despite the turmoil, the love they feel is profound and enduring, transcending the immediate pain and confusion.
