Ojos Tristes

In 'Ojos Tristes,' STRANGEHUMAN delves into the raw emotions of heartbreak and betrayal. The song's title, which translates to 'Sad Eyes,' sets the tone for a deeply emotional narrative. The lyrics paint a picture of a relationship marred by disloyalty and emotional turmoil. The repeated phrase 'mis ojos tristes parece' que te van a llorar' (my sad eyes seem like they are going to cry) underscores the profound sadness and sense of loss experienced by the narrator.

The song's language is stark and unfiltered, using terms like 'maldita puta' (damned whore) and 'perra' (bitch) to express the narrator's anger and sense of betrayal. These harsh words reflect the intensity of the emotions involved, highlighting the narrator's feeling of being deeply wronged. The repeated assertion that the subject lacks loyalty ('no eres perra porque te falta la lealtad') suggests that the betrayal was not just a personal affront but a fundamental violation of trust.

This introspection adds depth to the narrative, showing that the pain of betrayal is compounded by the narrator's own perceived shortcomings. The song also touches on themes of emotional numbness and confusion, with lines like 'vivo en un abismo de confusiones' (I live in an abyss of confusions) and 'le meto a todas mis raches y no siento amor' (I get with all my flings and feel no love), illustrating the narrator's struggle to cope with their emotions.

'Ojos Tristes' is a poignant exploration of the complexities of love, betrayal, and self-worth. STRANGEHUMAN's raw and honest lyrics provide a window into the pain of a broken heart, making the song relatable to anyone who has experienced similar feelings of loss and disillusionment.
