Me llaman Octubre

In 'Me llaman Octubre,' Love of Lesbian delves into the introspective and melancholic nature of the month of October, using it as a metaphor for a state of emotional withdrawal and introspection. The protagonist, who identifies with October, suggests a sense of mystery and a desire for solitude, as indicated by the line 'no pretendas saber más de mí' (don't pretend to know more about me). This reflects a reluctance to open up and a preference for remaining enigmatic and distant.

The lyrics 'soy luna nueva fácil de partir' (I am a new moon easy to break) further emphasize fragility and a sense of renewal that is delicate and easily disrupted. The new moon symbolizes new beginnings, but in this context, it also highlights vulnerability. The protagonist advises against trying to stay close, as they have already transformed the other person into November, indicating a shift in their relationship and the passage of time.

The recurring theme of forgetting, as mentioned in 'A veces pienso que es un don olvidar' (Sometimes I think it's a gift to forget), suggests a coping mechanism for dealing with emotional pain. The protagonist's identification with October, a month often associated with change and the onset of winter, underscores a period of transition and introspection. The song captures the essence of retreating into oneself and the bittersweet nature of memories and forgetting, encapsulating the emotional complexity of dealing with past relationships and personal growth.
