Que Es Lo Que Estamos Haciendo

Pignoise's song 'Que Es Lo Que Estamos Haciendo' delves into the emotional turmoil and confusion that follows a breakup. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a heart in distress, seeking closure and understanding. The opening lines, 'Donde esta la herida de tu corazon, cierrala y guardala todo en un cajon,' suggest a desire to heal and move on, yet the pain is still palpable. The metaphor of closing a wound and locking it away in a drawer signifies an attempt to hide or suppress the emotional scars left behind.

The chorus, 'Y ahora que no estas si nada es igual y me cuesta sonreir,' captures the essence of loss and the struggle to find joy in the absence of a loved one. The repetition of 'que es lo que estamos haciendo, que nos estamos rindiendo' reflects a sense of confusion and resignation. The protagonist is grappling with the reality of the breakup, questioning the decisions that led to this point and wondering if they are giving up too easily.

The imagery of using a 'nuevo destornillador' to remove the 'caparazon' and find the wound in the heart is particularly striking. It symbolizes a deep desire to understand and fix the underlying issues that caused the relationship to falter. The song's repetitive structure and poignant lyrics emphasize the cyclical nature of heartbreak and the difficulty of moving forward. Pignoise, known for their emotive rock style, effectively conveys the raw emotions associated with love and loss, making 'Que Es Lo Que Estamos Haciendo' a relatable and powerful anthem for anyone experiencing similar feelings.
