desparramadosscattered / spread out

Desparramados translates to "scattered" or "spread out." It's a vivid and somewhat less common word in song lyrics, making it stand out.

In the context of the song, Daniela Spalla sings, "Porque así nos ha dejado el viento, Lejos y desparramados." She uses it to describe how the passage of time and life's challenges have left the couple feeling distant and fragmented, no longer the united "los de siempre" (the usual us). This word beautifully captures the emotional disarray and separation they are experiencing.

"Los De Siempre" means something like "the people we always were," and Daniela Spalla spends the whole song watching that phrase turn painful. She opens by admitting her partner already senses something is off: "Sé que te andarás preguntando / Lo que suena en mi cabeza" (I know you'll be wondering / what's sounding in my head), then names the real problem, a wall going up between them: "Una pared de secretos / Que hablan sobre el fin" (A wall of secrets / that talk about the end).

The chorus is the confession itself. "Porque ya no somos los de siempre / Y eso nos está matando" (Because we're no longer who we always were / and that's killing us) isn't about one fight, it's about noticing the drift after it's already happened. She still reaches for a fix, "Pero aún hay tiempo de desviar / Este oscuro temporal" (But there's still time to divert / this dark storm), even while admitting the wind has already scattered them: "Porque así nos ha dejado el viento / Lejos y desparramados" (Because the wind has left us like this / far and scattered). By the closing lines the hope is gone and only the plain fact is left standing: "Ya no somos los de siempre" (We're no longer who we always were).

Daniela Spalla, from Argentina, crafts pop music with a thoughtful touch. She is a singer-songwriter who has built a following with her engaging lyrics and memorable melodies.

Her songs often feature a blend of synth-pop and indie sounds, creating an appealing atmosphere. Many listeners enjoy tracks like "Estábamos Tan Bien" and "Te Veo a Ti," and her albums such as "Puro Teatro" and "Canciones Tristes" showcase her evolving style.
