Cielo Negro

Silvina Moreno's 'Cielo Negro' delves into the complexities of inner turmoil and the haunting nature of past experiences. The song opens with the metaphor of 'La diamante,' a figure that comes to torture the narrator. This could symbolize a painful memory or a recurring thought that the narrator struggles to let go of, despite its tormenting presence. The repetition of 'No la quiero dejar, no la voy a dejar' emphasizes the internal conflict and the difficulty of releasing these haunting thoughts.

The lyrics further explore the theme of being pursued by shadows, which mock and torment the narrator. This imagery suggests a sense of being trapped by one's own fears and insecurities. The line 'Ya, no es como antes, que el Sol se aparte' indicates a shift from a time when things were clearer or more hopeful, to a present filled with darkness and uncertainty. The 'cielo negro' or 'black sky' symbolizes a state of mind where there are no more mysteries to hide, implying a raw and exposed emotional state.

As the song progresses, Moreno touches on the idea of playing with fire and the danger of entertaining wild thoughts. The past, though not forgotten, resurfaces like ashes, bringing with it a sense of being stuck in a cycle of emotional storms. The recurring dreams and whispers in the night add to the eerie and unsettling atmosphere, painting a picture of a mind that is constantly battling its own demons. The refrain 'Ya, no es como antes' serves as a poignant reminder of the loss of innocence and the pervasive darkness that now envelops the narrator's world.
