Tiraste a Matar

León Larregui's song 'Tiraste a Matar' delves into themes of love, regret, and personal growth. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship strained by mistakes and misunderstandings. The opening lines, 'Si te vas a mor / No me queda nada bueno,' set a somber tone, indicating that the departure of a loved one leaves the narrator feeling empty and desolate. This sense of loss is compounded by the realization that the narrator's actions have caused significant harm, as expressed in the line, 'Tiraste a matar / Y me diste en pleno vuelo,' which metaphorically suggests that the loved one's actions have struck the narrator deeply, disrupting their life mid-flight.

The song also explores the narrator's acknowledgment of their flaws and the impact of their behavior on the relationship. The admission, 'Me portè como un pendejo / Perdòname / No quise hacerte daño,' reveals a moment of self-awareness and a plea for forgiveness. This vulnerability is further emphasized by the recognition that the narrator is not the same person they once were, as they carry the weight of past mistakes and a 'karma denso y algo torcido.' This line suggests a heavy, twisted karma, indicating that the narrator has been burdened by their past actions and is now seeking redemption.

Despite the pain and regret, there is a glimmer of hope and love in the relationship. The lines, 'Y me das amor / Y confias en mis delirios / Y eres lo mejor / Que me ha sucedido,' highlight the unwavering support and love from the partner, which serves as a beacon of hope for the narrator. The song concludes with a resolution to change and not repeat past mistakes, as expressed in the lines, 'Ya no, ya no, me vuelvo a tropezar / Ya no, ya no, me vuelvo a equivocar.' This commitment to personal growth and the desire to nurture the relationship is encapsulated in the final lines, 'Mejor bailemos que todo està bien / Somo humanos y aveces inhumanos / Nos queremos, mas fuerte que ayer,' suggesting that despite their flaws, their love has grown stronger and they are ready to face the world together.
