El Tiempo Que Vivimos

Vagon Chicano's song 'El Tiempo Que Vivimos' delves into the profound emotions of love, loss, and the lingering presence of a cherished person. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone leaving, yet their essence remains deeply embedded in the surroundings. The opening lines, 'Te vas hablando asi como si nada, como si todo se acabara en el momento,' suggest a sudden departure, as if everything ended abruptly. Despite the physical absence, the person's presence lingers in the corners of the house, creating a haunting atmosphere where even the wind seems to carry memories.

The song's emotional core is the void left by the departed person. The lines 'tu silencio no me sirve para que voy a aceptarlo, tus cuadernos de oraciones para que no los entiendo' express a sense of confusion and helplessness. The protagonist struggles to find meaning in the silence and the remnants of the person's life, such as prayer books that now seem incomprehensible. This void is not just physical but deeply emotional, as highlighted by 'hay un vacio aqui en mi alma que solo tu puedes llenar.' The emptiness in the soul can only be filled by the love and innocence of the departed, a love that is described as eternal and irreplaceable.

The chorus, 'sera que el tiempo que vivimos es tan bonito y no se olvida,' reflects on the beautiful moments shared, which are unforgettable. The protagonist grapples with the pain of solitude and the challenge of moving on, asking, 'como sacarte de esta soledad, como sacarte de mi vida.' This poignant question underscores the difficulty of letting go of someone who has left an indelible mark on their life. The song captures the essence of enduring love and the struggle to cope with the absence of a loved one, making it a touching exploration of human emotions and relationships.
