En Reparaciones

In 'En Reparaciones,' Vangan delves into the complex emotional landscape of feeling neither good nor bad, a state of emotional numbness. The song's lyrics reflect a sense of indifference and detachment, where the protagonist is caught in a limbo of not caring about the outcomes of their actions or relationships. This is evident in lines like 'No me siento bien, tampoco me siento mal' (I don't feel good, nor do I feel bad) and 'A fin de cuentas, toda esa mierda me da igual' (In the end, all that shit doesn't matter to me). The repetition of these sentiments underscores a profound sense of apathy and disconnection from the world around them.

The metaphor of 'canto, pero no respiro' (I sing, but I don't breathe) and 'te miro, pero no suspiro' (I look at you, but I don't sigh) further illustrates this emotional void. Singing without breathing and looking without sighing suggest going through the motions of life without truly experiencing it. The protagonist is alive but not truly living, a sentiment that is reinforced by the line 'Yo ya estaba muerto' (I was already dead). This metaphorical death signifies a loss of passion and vitality, leaving only the ashes of what once was.

The song also touches on the futile search for meaning and connection. The protagonist's journey to the moon in 'Voy a caminar a la Luna, a ver si te logro encontrar' (I'm going to walk to the Moon, to see if I can find you) symbolizes an almost impossible quest for something or someone that might bring back a sense of purpose. However, the resignation in 'Está bien si no estás' (It's okay if you're not there) highlights the acceptance of this emotional void. The weariness of searching for lost love or meaning is palpable in 'Estoy tan cansado de buscarte en mi memoria' (I'm so tired of looking for you in my memory), indicating a deep fatigue with the past and a struggle to move forward.

The song's title, 'En Reparaciones' (Under Repairs), suggests that the protagonist is aware of their broken state and is perhaps in the process of healing or fixing themselves. However, the journey to repair is fraught with indifference and a lack of motivation, as seen in 'Dame tu mano, se me resbala' (Give me your hand, it slips away from me). This line conveys a sense of missed connections and opportunities, further emphasizing the protagonist's emotional detachment. Ultimately, 'En Reparaciones' is a poignant exploration of emotional numbness, the struggle for connection, and the slow, uncertain path to healing.
