Duele Pensar

Rosendo's song "Duele Pensar" delves into the disillusionment and pain that comes with observing the hypocrisy and lack of integrity in modern society. The lyrics open with a poignant reflection on those who, despite their public declarations, fail to act with dignity. This hypocrisy is further emphasized by the phrase "ciego el afán la cordura es la sinrazón," suggesting that blind ambition has replaced reason and sanity. The decisions made by these individuals are of significant consequence, yet they are taken without true consideration or moral grounding.

The chorus, "Hágase en nosotros vuestra voluntad, lo hemos decidido por unanimidad, válgame santa democracia," is a biting critique of the democratic process. It implies that decisions are made under the guise of collective agreement, but in reality, they may not reflect the true will or best interests of the people. The use of the term "santa democracia" adds a layer of irony, as it juxtaposes the sacredness of democracy with the flawed execution of its principles.

In the second verse, Rosendo touches on the theme of false freedom and isolation. The "limpios de condición" are those who appear pure or untainted, yet their freedom is an illusion. They build emotional barriers, symbolized by "trincheras al corazón," which ultimately lead to loneliness and division. The repetition of the chorus reinforces the idea that these societal issues are pervasive and deeply ingrained.

The final lines, "No quiero dar ni puedo pedir perdón, a modo de primera necesidad," express a sense of resignation and defiance. Rosendo refuses to apologize or seek forgiveness, suggesting that these actions are futile in the face of such systemic problems. This powerful conclusion underscores the song's overall message of disillusionment and the struggle to maintain integrity in a flawed society.
