Cadena de Flores

“Cadena de Flores” by Saint Seya Lost Canvas is a poignant exploration of love, memory, and the intertwining of life and death. The song opens with the imagery of old paintings in an attic, symbolizing memories that time will eventually uncover. These paintings, described as watercolors of friendship in red and gray, evoke a sense of nostalgia and the enduring nature of past relationships. The lyrics suggest that love can resist the passage of time, as the colors of the heart's canvas remain vibrant despite the years.

The chorus emphasizes the idea that love and death are intertwined, represented by the metaphor of a 'chain of flowers.' This chain signifies the delicate yet strong bond that connects two souls, even in the face of separation and loss. The lyrics express a deep yearning to hold onto love, questioning why one must die if love can persist. The imagery of hands and warmth merging with dreams highlights the intimate connection between the lovers, suggesting that their love transcends physical existence.

As the song progresses, it delves into the pain of parting and the resilience required to continue loving despite the inevitable goodbyes. The notion of 'crying your goodbye and laughing at the pain' captures the bittersweet nature of love, where joy and sorrow coexist. The song concludes with a hopeful vision of eternal unity, where the lovers' voices sing together in harmony, and their love becomes an unbreakable chain of flowers. This final image of petals floating on the sea symbolizes the enduring and unbreakable nature of their bond, blessed by a higher power.
