Veneno

Tan Bionica's song "Veneno" delves into the intoxicating allure and inherent dangers of living life on the edge, metaphorically represented by the 'border.' The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a woman who is captivated by the glamorous yet perilous lifestyle. She is described as someone who 'alucina con las perlas de novela' (hallucinates with the pearls of a novel), indicating her fascination with a life that is both luxurious and illusory. The 'border' here symbolizes a place of transition and uncertainty, where the protagonist dances and walks freely, embodying a sense of liberation and recklessness.

The recurring mention of 'fabrica del jean costado loco' (factory of the crazy side of jeans) and 'retocada es su destino delicioso' (retouched is her delicious destiny) suggests a life that is both manufactured and enhanced, perhaps through superficial means. This could be a commentary on the artificiality and fleeting nature of such a lifestyle. The protagonist's journey is marked by a series of indulgences, from 'champagne y colores de alucinar' (champagne and hallucinatory colors) to 'rescates hot' (hot rescues), highlighting the hedonistic and ephemeral pleasures that define her existence.

The song also touches on the collective madness of society, as seen in the lines 'yo soy del mundo mundo de los locos' (I am from the world, world of the crazies) and 'esta de moda y estan todos como locos' (it's in fashion and everyone is crazy). This suggests a broader social commentary on how such a lifestyle is not only accepted but also celebrated. The protagonist's journey is one of constant movement and exploration, 'voy caminando, caminando donde quiera' (I walk, walk wherever I want), reflecting a restless spirit in search of meaning or perhaps escape. Ultimately, "Veneno" is a complex exploration of the seductive yet dangerous allure of living life on the edge, where glamour and toxicity coexist in a delicate balance.
