Antes de Irte

Pez Luna's song 'Antes de Irte' delves into the profound emotions of longing and regret that accompany the departure of a loved one. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the emptiness and coldness that fills the space once occupied by the person who has left. The imagery of broken windows and cold mornings symbolizes the shattering of the protagonist's world and the chilling loneliness that follows. The heart's desire to explode reflects the intense emotional turmoil and the difficulty of moving on from such a significant loss.

The song also explores the theme of missed opportunities and the pain of unfulfilled dreams. The lines 'Será difícil encontrarme / Y con mis labios soñarás' suggest that the person who left will struggle to find themselves and will be haunted by dreams of what could have been. The regret is palpable as the lyrics lament the moment when the person didn't go further, implying a sense of unfinished business and unspoken words.

The recurring motif of 'el ojo del tiempo' (the eye of time) dying and covering its body while wandering the garden adds a layer of surrealism and timelessness to the song. It suggests that time itself is affected by the separation, and the garden could symbolize a place of memories and lost moments. The protagonist's willingness to accept lies if it means the return of their loved one highlights the desperation and depth of their longing. The song's emotional intensity is further amplified by the acknowledgment of external forces and battles, yet the strength of the bond remains unbroken, even in the face of expulsion and conflict.
