Perdidos

In 'Perdidos,' Lucia Gil delves into the emotional turmoil of unfulfilled dreams and the pain of unreciprocated love. The song opens with the artist reflecting on past experiences, symbolized by 'contando canciones de ayer' (counting songs from yesterday). This imagery sets the tone for a journey through nostalgia and the remnants of broken dreams. The phrase 'ya no me importa perder' (I no longer care about losing) suggests a resignation to the inevitability of disappointment, highlighting a sense of emotional fatigue.

As the song progresses, Gil explores the concept of sensibility and its impact on belief and hope. The lines 'empiezo a pensar que la sensatez es dejar de creer' (I start to think that sensibility is to stop believing) and 'que comenzo a doler' (that it started to hurt) reveal a struggle between rationality and the desire to hold onto dreams. This internal conflict is further emphasized by the recurring imagery of 'chocando contra tu pared' (crashing against your wall), symbolizing the barriers and setbacks faced in the pursuit of love and aspirations.

The chorus, with its poignant declaration of being 'perdido' (lost), encapsulates the essence of the song. The repetition of 'perdido mis sueños' (lost my dreams) and 'perdida en un beso que no me darás' (lost in a kiss you won't give me) underscores the theme of unattainable desires. The juxtaposition of feeling close yet distant from the object of affection ('te tengo tan cerca, te siento tan lejos') adds to the emotional complexity. Ultimately, the song leaves listeners with a glimmer of hope, as Gil expresses a longing for mutual recognition and connection in the future.
