The Inner Struggle of Love and Loss in 'Enfermedad'
Trotsky Vengaran's song 'Enfermedad' delves deep into the emotional turmoil of love and loss. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with the absence of a significant other, unable to find solace or sleep without them. The opening lines, 'Salgo a la calle, salgo a buscar, no puedo dormirme si vos no estas,' set the stage for a night filled with longing and desperation. The protagonist's journey through the night, seeking relief in a drink, underscores the depth of their emotional pain and the sense that something is fundamentally wrong when they are far from home and their loved one.
The recurring theme of wanting to be part of the solution but feeling like the problem is a powerful metaphor for the internal conflict many face in relationships. The lines 'quiero ser parte del remedio, pero soy la enfermedad' highlight this struggle. Despite the protagonist's best efforts to do what is right, they feel they always fall short, as expressed in 'quiero hacer lo que es correcto, siempre me sale mal.' This self-awareness and acknowledgment of their flaws add a layer of complexity to the song, making it relatable to anyone who has ever felt inadequate in love.
The song also touches on the desire for reconciliation and the hope for a better future. The longing to 'perderme en tu silencio y olvidar lo que paso' and 'hundirme en mi sueño, despertarme junto a vos' speaks to the universal wish to move past mistakes and wake up to a new beginning with the one they love. Trotsky Vengaran's raw and honest lyrics, combined with their punk rock musical style, create a poignant and powerful narrative that resonates deeply with listeners.
