Siete y media

In 'Siete y media,' Tolidos delves into the complexities of a strained relationship, where pride and stubbornness have led to a mutual downfall. The lyrics paint a picture of two individuals who have been pulling on opposite ends of a metaphorical rope, neither willing to let go. This tug-of-war has left them both on the same side, but not in a harmonious way. Instead, their pride has created a chasm between them, making it impossible to reconcile. The line 'porque el orgullo pudo separar' (because pride could separate) encapsulates this sentiment, highlighting how their egos have driven them apart.

The chorus, 'no me importa estar mal, tal vez es todo lo que somos' (I don't mind being wrong, maybe it's all we are), suggests a resignation to their flawed relationship. It reflects a sense of acceptance that perhaps their constant state of conflict is intrinsic to who they are as a couple. This acceptance is tinged with sadness, as it implies that they have given up on the possibility of change or improvement. The repetition of this line underscores the depth of their disillusionment and the emotional toll it has taken on them.

As the song progresses, the lyrics reveal a sense of disillusionment and realization. The line 'justo ayer pensé que me amabas pero creo que solo fue imaginación' (just yesterday I thought you loved me, but I think it was just my imagination) captures a moment of clarity where the narrator recognizes that their perception of love was perhaps an illusion. This realization is painful, as it forces them to confront the reality of their relationship. The recurring theme of 'tal vez esto es lo que hemos llegado a ser' (maybe this is what we have become) serves as a poignant reminder of how far they have drifted from their initial connection, leaving them with nothing but a sense of what could have been.
