Aun Me Tienes

Zen's song 'Aun Me Tienes' delves into the emotional turmoil of a person who feels the need to leave a relationship but is still deeply connected to their partner. The lyrics express a sense of internal conflict and exhaustion, as the protagonist grapples with the decision to part ways. The opening lines, 'Quiero que me comprendas / tengo que irme de aqui,' set the stage for this emotional journey, highlighting the desire for understanding and the necessity of departure.

The chorus, 'Y tú aún me tienes / yo soy quien te pierde,' underscores the paradox of the situation. While the protagonist feels lost and disconnected, they acknowledge that their partner still holds a significant place in their life. This duality is further emphasized by the lines, 'tengo miedo de herirte con el tiempo / tu sabes que quisiera decirte lo correcto,' which reveal a fear of causing long-term pain and a yearning to say the right things. The repetition of 'no caer jamas' signifies a desperate hope to avoid falling into despair or making irreversible mistakes.

Throughout the song, there is a recurring theme of feeling overwhelmed and powerless. Phrases like 'Todo el cielo me cae encima' and 'mira mis manos no sirven de nada' paint a vivid picture of the protagonist's struggle. The imagery of the sky falling and useless hands conveys a sense of being crushed by the weight of their emotions and circumstances. Despite this, there is a persistent effort to stand firm, as indicated by 'sin aire aún siguo en pie,' suggesting resilience in the face of adversity.

'Aun Me Tienes' is a poignant exploration of the complexities of love, loss, and the fear of hurting those we care about. It captures the essence of human vulnerability and the difficult choices we must sometimes make to protect ourselves and others.
