Mirar

In 'Mirar,' SEPTMANN delves into the depths of existential despair and the struggle to find meaning in a seemingly indifferent world. The song opens with vivid imagery of a room being painted but devoid of color, a metaphor for the artist's inability to find vibrancy or purpose in life. The act of cleaning the brush and lighting a candle that quickly melts away further emphasizes the fleeting and futile nature of his efforts. Throwing the pillow to sleep better suggests a desperate attempt to find comfort in a world that offers none.

The lyrics reveal a profound sense of disconnection and obsession, as the artist describes the sidewalk becoming an obsession and a longing to return home, a place of safety and familiarity. The line 'Lo que me está pasando no es vida' (What is happening to me is not life) starkly conveys the depth of his existential crisis. The internal light has dimmed, and he feels he has lost everything except his reason, indicating a struggle to hold onto sanity in the face of overwhelming darkness.

As the song progresses, the artist's mental state deteriorates further. The guiding star no longer leads him, and the world around him loses its color and vibrancy. The mirror refusing to reflect him symbolizes a loss of identity and self-recognition. The recurring refrain 'Ya no miro nada, ya no quiero mirar' (I don't see anything anymore, I don't want to look anymore) underscores his desire to escape from the overwhelming reality. The world grows larger and more daunting, while he feels increasingly small and insignificant. SEPTMANN's 'Mirar' is a poignant exploration of the struggle to find meaning and the overwhelming desire to escape from a world that feels both alien and oppressive.
