Me tienen cansado

Riff's song 'Me tienen cansado' delves into the existential fatigue and disillusionment that comes with modern urban life. The opening lines, 'Al confundir blanco por gris, todo empezó a salir, fuera de mí, fuera de mí,' suggest a sense of confusion and disorientation. The colors white and gray can be seen as metaphors for clarity and ambiguity, respectively. The protagonist feels that everything is slipping away from them, indicating a loss of control and a sense of detachment from their surroundings.

The chorus, 'Yo no se si es mejor, vivir en esta situación, fuera de mí, fuera de mí,' reflects a deep uncertainty about whether it's worth continuing to live in such a state. The repetition of 'fuera de mí' (outside of myself) emphasizes the feeling of being disconnected from one's own life and experiences. This detachment is further highlighted by the line, 'En realidad esta ciudad, y toda su publicidad, me tienen cansado,' where the city and its relentless advertising are blamed for the protagonist's exhaustion. The city represents the overwhelming and often superficial demands of modern society.

In the final lines, 'Fuera de mí, yo vivo así, y nada puede hacerme feliz, así he nacido,' the protagonist resigns to their fate, acknowledging that nothing can bring them happiness. This resignation suggests a deep-seated acceptance of their discontent, almost as if it is an inherent part of their being. The song captures the essence of feeling trapped in a monotonous and unfulfilling existence, a sentiment that resonates with many who feel overwhelmed by the pressures of contemporary urban life.
