Ciclo

The song 'Ciclo' by Once Tiros delves into the complexities and repetitive nature of relationships. The lyrics paint a picture of a cycle where past memories and emotions resurface, creating a sense of nostalgia and confusion. The opening lines, 'algo de tu cara me recuerda de ayer y se va conmigo,' suggest that the protagonist is haunted by memories of a past relationship, which continue to influence their present. This cyclical nature is further emphasized by the line 'y lo que se ha ido tiene que volver,' indicating that what has been lost must return, dragging along forgotten memories.

The chorus, 'siempre asi, desarmandome, venis a buscar algo de mi vida,' reflects the recurring pattern of the relationship. The use of 'desarmandome' (disarming me) and 'desatandome' (untying me) suggests a sense of vulnerability and confusion. The protagonist feels disoriented by the constant reappearances and exits of their partner, who seems to have a subtle way of replacing themselves, as indicated by 'tenes una forma tan sutil de sustituirte.' This line highlights the partner's ability to leave and return without causing a significant disruption, yet still leaving the protagonist feeling unsettled.

The song also touches on the theme of incoherence and absence, as seen in the lines 'una cortesia criminal que nos deje ausentes, todos incoherentes.' This 'criminal courtesy' leaves both parties feeling absent and disconnected, ultimately leading to a lack of clarity and resolution. The repetition of 'siempre asi' throughout the song reinforces the idea of an unending cycle, where the protagonist is continually disarmed and disoriented by their partner's actions. 'Ciclo' captures the emotional turmoil and confusion that often accompany relationships, making it a relatable and poignant piece for many listeners.
