about

“Una y otra vez” is a song that has born out of a long process of group growth and personal acquaintance. The song aims to capture the rollercoaster ride of the vital and emotional changes of a person with mental illness, which is why there is a very drastic change both at the musical and literary level in the middle of the song: this seeks to reflect the contrast experienced by a person who does not control his extreme impulses and emotions and is dragged by them, experiencing the uncertainty of not knowing how he will be tomorrow (“draining other ways of doing, what I do, what I lack, what happened, what happened”). The song begins by talking about past romances, and the mentioned contrast between the first and second part of the song has a lot to do with the past and future as well, the author recalls past times before his mental illness process (“I cannot believe, in yesterday’s time“) and constantly wonders what his future will be like (“what I want to be, over and over again”).

lyrics

(One, two, one, two, three, four)
Hey!
You gotta see
I love you, girl
I’m at your feet
Hey!
You gotta see
I love you, girl
I’m at your feet
But
I can’t believe
In the times of yesterday
In the times of yesterday
But
I can’t believe
In the times of yesterday
In the times of yesterday
I spend my days thinking
Whispering
Draining other ways to do
What I do
What I miss
What I pay
What I don’t care
What I don’t care
I spend my days thinking
Whispering
Draining other ways to do
What I do
What I miss
What I pay
What I don’t care
What I don’t care
I don’t want to read
I don’t want to read
I want to be
Again and again
Again and again
I don’t want to read
I don’t want to read
I want to be
Again and again
Again and again
(Again and again x4)
