Resulta Imposible

The song 'Resulta Imposible' by Las Pastillas del Abuelo, an Argentine rock band known for their poetic lyrics and blend of rock, blues, and other genres, delves into the emotional turmoil of someone trying to move on from a past relationship. The lyrics paint a picture of a person whose life has been thrown off balance by heartbreak, symbolized by the out-of-tune guitar and the alchemist turning everything to ice. The song's protagonist is struggling with the inability to let go of the memories of a former lover, which is affecting their ability to create and feel joy.

The chorus, 'Y me resulta imposible sacarla de mi cabeza,' which translates to 'And I find it impossible to get her out of my head,' captures the essence of the song's message about the difficulty of moving on. The repeated pleas to God to end this suffering suggest a deep desire to return to a former self—one who doesn't cry over women and always has a lover. This reflects a common human experience of wanting to regain control and stability after a period of emotional vulnerability.

The song also touches on themes of fear and sin in the context of love. The lines 'Y tengo miedo a equivocarme / A sufrir, ser lastimado' and 'Pero amarte es un pecado' express the fear of making mistakes and the pain of being hurt, as well as the idea that loving this person feels like a sin, perhaps because of the damage it has caused. The narrator's resolve to not fall for that person's kisses again and to let someone else take their turn indicates a painful but determined step towards healing and self-preservation.
