Madrugadas refers to the very early hours of the morning, specifically before dawn. It's a more evocative and specific term than just saying "mornings."
In the song, the artist reminisces about "Esas madrugadas / Cuando la ansiedad te llegaba y tú me marcabas" (Those early mornings / When anxiety would hit you and you'd call me). This word paints a vivid picture of intimate, vulnerable moments shared in the quietest hours, making it a poignant and memorable detail in the lyrics.
Calle 24's "GALERIAS" is a super relatable look at trying to move on after a breakup, even when it's clearly not going that well! The song kicks off with the singer admitting, "Hoy se cumple un mes / De que ya no te veo / Que casi no te pienso" [Today marks one month / Since I haven't seen you / That I barely think of you], but then immediately wonders, "¿Qué estarás haciendo?" [What could you be doing?], showing he's definitely still thinking about his ex. He's hurt, feeling like their late-night calls when she was anxious, "No fueron nada / Esas madrugadas" [Those early mornings / Were nothing], especially now that everyone is telling him she's "mejor sin mí" [better without me].
It gets even more honest when he talks about scrolling through his phone and finding an old photo of them, which gives him a "bajón" [a downer]. He admits he now has a whole "galería" [gallery] of other girls, but he still confuses them with her, even saying about one, "Con ese culito, la neta que 'I love you'" [With that little ass, honestly 'I love you'], only to realize it's not her. Ouch! He even mentions she won't accept his friend request on Instagram. It’s a raw, honest, and a little bit messy take on post-breakup feelings, where he's trying to forget but clearly still misses her, despite his attempts to move on.
