Dilema

The song 'Dilema' by The Sistars delves into the complexities of a tumultuous romantic relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of longing and desire, juxtaposed with the uncertainty and emotional turmoil that comes with it. The protagonist is caught in a constant state of yearning, as evidenced by lines like 'No estás presente, pero aún me queda tu olor' (You're not here, but your scent still lingers). This suggests a deep emotional connection that persists despite physical absence.

The recurring theme of physical and emotional thirst is prominent throughout the song. Phrases like 'Mi cuerpo tiene sed' (My body is thirsty) and 'Tú me llevas al cien' (You take me to a hundred) highlight the intense physical attraction and the almost addictive nature of the relationship. The protagonist is torn between the ecstasy of being with their lover and the agony of their absence, making 'besarte es un dilema' (kissing you is a dilemma) a central conflict.

The song also explores the idea of escapism through physical intimacy. The lines 'Boy take off my blouse and take me where I’ve never been before' and 'I want you to explore all my body and keep me next to you' suggest a desire to escape reality and find solace in the physical connection. However, this escapism is fleeting, as the protagonist is left in a state of anticipation and longing, waiting for the next encounter. The emotional rollercoaster is encapsulated in the repeated lines 'No importa si te quedas, no importa si te vas' (It doesn't matter if you stay, it doesn't matter if you go), emphasizing the internal conflict and the unresolved nature of the relationship.
