Inventas

Vanesa Martín's song 'Inventas' delves into the complexities of self-awareness and the dynamics of a romantic relationship. The lyrics suggest a narrative where the protagonist is coming to terms with the multifaceted nature of her identity, acknowledging that there are parts of herself that she has yet to fully understand or control. This introspection is juxtaposed with the experience of feeling disconnected from a partner, as indicated by the line 'Dices que hace un año que no estoy aquí,' which translates to 'You say that I haven't been here for a year.' The imagery of a tunnel where no one can hear them and the lack of connection 'from your mouth to mine' underscores the emotional distance in the relationship.

The chorus, 'Inventas una excusa más y te lamentas,' which means 'You make up one more excuse and you lament,' points to a pattern of avoidance and blame within the relationship. The protagonist's 'eye reader' cannot find the partner, suggesting a lack of genuine communication and understanding. However, the protagonist seems to see through the excuses to the partner's true intentions. The repeated references to 'going to the winning red' could symbolize taking risks or making bold moves, possibly in an attempt to win back control or favor in the relationship.

The song also touches on themes of resilience and self-reliance. Phrases like 'Mi vida se quedó rondando alguna puerta' ('My life stayed around some door') and 'Las tornas van cambiando y yo no pido cuentas' ('The tables are turning and I'm not asking for accounts') reflect a sense of moving on and not dwelling on past mistakes or setbacks. Martín's lyrics convey a message of personal growth and the determination to face life's challenges head-on, even when it means confronting the unknown aspects of oneself or navigating the complexities of love.
