Ya Estamos Bien

Salamandra's song 'Ya Estamos Bien' delves into the complexities of a tumultuous relationship that, despite its many challenges, ultimately leads to a sense of resolution and healing. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a couple who have experienced their fair share of mistakes and misadventures. The opening lines, 'Disculpame si no pude entender / Hay problemas que no sé resolver,' set the tone for a narrative filled with regret and the consequences of youthful indiscretions. The protagonist acknowledges their shortcomings and the pain caused by their actions, symbolized by the metaphor of 'sacando un cero en lo nuestro,' indicating a failure in their relationship akin to failing a test in school.

The chorus, 'Pero fuimos algo más que ladrones fugitivos / Nos portamos mal, y mientras más, mejor lo hacíamos,' suggests that their bond was more than just a series of reckless escapades. They were 'ladrones fugitivos,' or fugitive thieves, implying a sense of rebellion and living on the edge. Yet, this rebelliousness also brought them closer, making their connection deeper and more meaningful. The line 'Un tatuaje en tus heridas, mi música favorita' beautifully captures the idea that their love, though painful, left an indelible mark, much like a tattoo.

As the song progresses, the imagery of 'En un auto que no sé de quién es / Frente al lago, antes de amanecer' evokes a sense of nostalgia and longing. The protagonist reminisces about moments of intimacy and dreams of crossing a lake, a metaphor for overcoming obstacles. Despite the chaos and the 'infierno' they faced, the repeated affirmation 'Ya estamos bien' signifies a hard-earned peace and acceptance. The song ultimately celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the possibility of finding clarity and contentment after enduring hardship.
