Trampas

Vanesa Martín's song 'Trampas' delves deep into the emotional turmoil that follows the end of a significant relationship. The lyrics are a poignant exploration of doubt, regret, and the lingering presence of a past lover. Martín's introspective questioning, 'A veces me pregunto si lo hice bien,' sets the tone for a narrative filled with self-reflection and uncertainty. The metaphor of setting traps in the bed symbolizes the futile attempts to capture or relive moments of intimacy, highlighting the struggle to move on while still being haunted by memories.

The recurring line, 'Me da pena,' encapsulates the sorrow and frustration of having loved and lost. The duality of 'tenerte y no tenerte' reflects the paradox of feeling connected to someone who is no longer present. This sentiment is further emphasized by the imagery of searching for the lost lover among the crowd, a futile endeavor that underscores the depth of the emotional void left behind. The song's narrative also touches on the inevitability of endings, 'Saber que todo acaba,' and the difficulty of facing the reality of separation.

Martín's lyrics also hint at the healing process, albeit a slow and painful one. The mention of 'heridas que cerrar en tu interior' suggests that there are internal wounds that need time to heal before one can fully move on. The song's melancholic tone is softened by moments of rebellion and defiance, as seen in 'me rebelo y te aprisiono en los cristales de mi habitación,' indicating a struggle between acceptance and resistance. 'Trampas' is a heartfelt portrayal of the complexities of love, loss, and the journey towards emotional recovery.
