Bienvenidos al Apocalipsis

Luzbel's song 'Bienvenidos al Apocalipsis' delves deep into themes of guilt, despair, and existential dread. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person who has reached the end of their moral and spiritual rope. The opening lines, 'Ha llegado el momento de confesar / Todas las culpas que se encajan sobre mí,' set the stage for a confession of sins and wrongdoings that have accumulated over time. This sense of overwhelming guilt is further emphasized by the line, 'Ya mis pecados rebasaron la conciencia / Me he empezado a podrir,' suggesting that the weight of these sins has begun to rot the individual's very soul.

The song continues to explore the isolation and betrayal that come with such a heavy burden of guilt. The protagonist admits to having no friends left to trust and acknowledges having betrayed love and happiness. This self-awareness is encapsulated in the line, 'Soy un fantasma encarnado / Que profesa el juicio final,' portraying the individual as a living ghost, already experiencing a form of judgment day. The repeated refrain, 'Bienvenidos al apocalipsis / Bienvenidos a el gran final,' serves as a grim invitation to witness the ultimate downfall, both personal and universal.

In the latter part of the song, the lyrics touch on the societal and moral transgressions committed by the protagonist. 'He quebrado las leyes de la sociedad / He vendido el honor de la moral,' indicates a complete disregard for societal norms and moral codes. The individual feels beyond redemption, as even 'el santo padre' cannot forgive them. The final verses, 'No tengo entrada al maldito infierno / Al cielo nunca podré llegar,' highlight a sense of eternal limbo, where the protagonist is doomed to wander the world, unseen and unredeemed. This haunting conclusion reinforces the song's overarching themes of guilt, isolation, and existential despair.
