Días de mierda

"Días de mierda" by Hens is a raw and candid exploration of the struggles and frustrations that come with life's seemingly endless challenges. The song's title, which translates to "Shitty Days," sets the tone for a narrative filled with disillusionment and a sense of being stuck in a rut. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of mundane and disappointing moments, such as a half lemon in the fridge next to a non-alcoholic beer, symbolizing the small, everyday letdowns that accumulate over time.

The song delves into themes of self-reflection and regret, particularly in relationships. The line "Me recuerda lo buena que fuiste y lo mierdas que fui yo" highlights a moment of introspection where the narrator acknowledges their shortcomings in contrast to someone else's goodness. This admission of personal failure adds depth to the song, as it moves beyond mere complaint to a more profound understanding of one's role in their own unhappiness.

Despite the overwhelming sense of despair, "Días de mierda" carries a message of hope and resilience. The repeated refrain "Vamos a salir de aquí" ("We're going to get out of here") serves as a mantra of determination, suggesting that even after a million bad days, there is a possibility of change and improvement. This duality of acknowledging hardship while holding onto hope is a powerful reminder of the human capacity to endure and overcome adversity, making the song relatable to anyone who has faced difficult times.
