ERROR

Raúl Ornelas' song 'ERROR' delves into the emotional turbulence of falling in love and the subsequent realization of the challenges that come with it. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who finds himself unexpectedly and deeply in love, describing his feelings with a mix of joy and confusion. The opening lines express a sense of self-pity and bewilderment as he acknowledges his sudden transformation into a 'happy madman' after meeting the woman who has captured his heart.

The song uses the metaphor of a journey to the moon to illustrate the protagonist's emotional state. He describes his love as a compass gone awry, leading him to the moon, a place of wonder and isolation. This metaphor highlights the euphoria of love but also the disorientation and fear of being so far removed from reality. The repeated refrain of 'Error, subir a la luna sin tu amor' (Error, going to the moon without your love) underscores the mistake of embarking on this emotional journey without the reciprocation of the woman's love, leaving his heart 'down below' with her.

Ornelas further explores the passage of time and the persistence of his feelings through the days of the week, each day representing a deeper entanglement in his emotions. The protagonist's desire to 'descend' and 'touch the ground again' symbolizes his longing for a return to normalcy and stability, which he believes can only be achieved by seeing the woman again. The song poignantly captures the highs and lows of love, the thrill of infatuation, and the sobering realization of its complexities.
