Recomenzar (feat. Jorge Drexler)

Silva's song "Recomenzar," featuring Jorge Drexler, is a poignant exploration of renewal and the desire to start over. The lyrics delve into the complexities of life and relationships, using vivid imagery and metaphors to convey a deep sense of longing and hope. The opening lines, "La vida es más que un trago / Quiero beberte entera," suggest that life is more than fleeting moments and that the speaker desires to fully embrace and experience it, particularly through the memory of a significant other.

The song reflects on past experiences and the pain of memories, as seen in the lines, "Y me rompí en el camino / Ese recuerdo me ciega." The speaker acknowledges the hurt and the blinding nature of certain memories, yet there is a yearning to move past this pain. The act of drinking wine and ending up with an empty cellar symbolizes attempts to drown sorrows and the futility of such efforts. However, the recurring desire to "Recomenzar" or start anew signifies a hopeful outlook.

The lyrics also present a metaphorical plan for healing and moving forward. The idea of walking the same path but in the opposite direction, "Andar el mismo trayecto / Pero en el otro sentido," suggests a reversal of time and experiences. This is further emphasized by the imagery of turning hourglasses and loosening chains, indicating a desire for freedom and a fresh start. The collaboration with Jorge Drexler adds a layer of depth, as both artists are known for their introspective and poetic songwriting. Together, they create a narrative that resonates with anyone who has ever wished for a second chance or a new beginning.
