Tren Sexual

Pedro Suárez-Vértiz's song 'Tren Sexual' delves into the powerful and often uncontrollable nature of sexual desire. The metaphor of a 'sexual train' is central to the song, representing an unstoppable force that sweeps individuals off their feet, often leading them into situations they cannot control. The lyrics suggest that this train comes 'with the night,' indicating that these desires often emerge in the darkness, a time traditionally associated with mystery and hidden truths. The train 'has no conditions' and 'wants to take you,' emphasizing the inevitability and intensity of these feelings.

The song also touches on the mental and emotional toll that such intense desires can take. Lines like 'Yo sé que tu pobre cerebro debe descender y descansar' (I know that your poor brain needs to descend and rest) highlight the exhaustion and confusion that can accompany such powerful emotions. The struggle to 'luchar con goces muy intensos' (fight with very intense pleasures) and the difficulty in forgetting these experiences suggest a battle between the mind and the body, where the body often wins but leaves lasting scars on the psyche.

Furthermore, 'Tren Sexual' explores the consequences of giving in to these desires without a foundation of love or truth. The lyrics warn that 'si el amor no existe en el placer de piel, hay mal final' (if love does not exist in the pleasure of the skin, there is a bad end). This line underscores the potential for emotional damage when physical pleasure is sought without emotional connection. The song concludes with a cautionary note about the difficulty of escaping this 'train' once one has boarded, suggesting that succumbing to these desires can lead to a path of no return.
