Tus Canciones

Lisandro Aristimuño's song 'Tus Canciones' delves into themes of solitude, introspection, and the healing power of music. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with loneliness and the aftermath of emotional excesses. The opening lines, 'No preguntes cuántos espejos me encandilaron hoy,' suggest a day filled with self-reflection and perhaps a sense of being overwhelmed by one's own image or actions. The mention of 'Tu noche de excesos' and 'Tu feria de besos' hints at a night of indulgence and fleeting connections, leaving the protagonist feeling empty and isolated by the time 'la hora del té' arrives.

The song's middle section, 'Me quedé solo, feo, sin poder sonreír,' captures the depth of the protagonist's despair. The inability to smile and the feeling of ugliness reflect a profound sense of self-loathing and sadness. The line 'No soñé verte muda sin darme luz de sol' adds to this melancholic atmosphere, indicating a loss of hope and the absence of a guiding light or inspiration. This part of the song emphasizes the emotional void and the struggle to find meaning or joy in life.

However, the song takes a turn towards hope and healing in the latter part. 'Ando buscando, abro persianas' signifies an attempt to let light in, both literally and metaphorically. The absence of noise and disturbances ('Ya nadie molesta, nadie me apura, nadie me enoja más') suggests a newfound peace and clarity. The closing lines, 'Vos podés darme días que tengan tus canciones,' highlight the transformative power of music. The protagonist finds solace and a sense of purpose in the songs of a loved one, suggesting that music can be a source of comfort and a means to overcome loneliness and despair.
