YO TAMBIEN TUVE ALAS

The song "YO TAMBIEN TUVE ALAS" by LOCURA POÉTICA is a poignant exploration of personal downfall and the struggle with inner demons. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who once soared high, metaphorically having wings, but has since fallen from grace. The protagonist reflects on their past, acknowledging the noise and brightness that once surrounded them, only to find themselves in a world of gray. This fall is not attributed to arrogance, as others might think, but rather to a deep-seated pain masked by a smile.

The song delves into the contrast between mediocrity and the restless pursuit of dreams. The protagonist envies those who sleep peacefully without dreams, while they themselves are consumed by fiery dreams that keep them awake. Despite losing their wings, they claim to fly higher than others, suggesting a resilience and determination to rise above their circumstances. The fall from the sky is not seen as a punishment but as a result of curiosity and the allure of an easy dream, leading to a realization that paradise is not as high as once believed.

As the song progresses, the protagonist embraces their new reality, walking among shadows where the sky no longer deceives. They acknowledge their descent was not due to madness but exhaustion and a desire to escape the noise. The lyrics convey a sense of acceptance of their current state, where they have become a "devil" to their addictions, choosing to keep their eyes open to avoid dreaming again. The song concludes with a haunting reflection on the choices made, the absence of redemption, and the acceptance of a self-imposed hell, highlighting the complexity of human emotions and the consequences of our decisions.
