Let's start this challenge. This year I'm beginning with a lofi bedroom pop style song. Very simple. I bit too dark but it is what it is. I'll try to follow this approach for the next weeks so I can have a bunch of coherent songs I can pack them in some release in the future. I hope you like it.
‹ Lyrics
(Spanish)
En el estanque hay patos y peces,
tortugas, garzas, lombrices y gente.
En el estanque ya casi es de noche.
En sus refugios los seres se esconden.
Todos están tensos
por si les atacan.
Todos tienen miedo
por si algo les caza.
En el estanque los bichos ya duermen.
Un ojo abierto por si no amanecen.
En el estanque yo soy el depredador.
Ellos me huyen y llevan razón.
Todo están tensos.
Todos están listos.
Con dientes, pistolas,
garras y cuchillos.
En el estanque hay patos y peces,
tortugas, garzas, lombrices y gente.
Miedo a ser devorados.
Miedo a ser sorprendidos.
Miedo a ser cocinados.
Miedo a las miradas de los vecinos.
(English)
In the pond there are ducks and fish,
turtles, herons, worms, and people.
In the pond it's almost night.
In their shelters, the creatures hide.
They are all tense
in case they are attacked.
They are all afraid
in case something hunts them.
In the pond, the creatures are already asleep.
One eye open in case dawn doesn't break.
In the pond, I am the predator.
They flee from me, and they have good reason to.
Everyone is tense.
Everyone is ready.
With teeth, guns,
claws, and knives.
In the pond there are ducks and fish,
turtles, herons, worms, and people.
Afraid of being devoured.
Afraid of being surprised.
Afraid of being cooked.
Afraid of the neighbors' stares.
