Sobredosis Lyrics in English by Íñigo Quintero

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sobredosis by Íñigo Quintero from Spanish to English.
I hear the sirens, I crash into reality
Eyes wide open, so much fragility
Prisoner of chance and I'm already missing it
How I stared at you mesmerized, without thinking
Friday at 2:00, overdose of emotion
I get lost in the stories forgotten in your honor
And now that you're leaving, don't ask me for anything else
More
I wanna be your voice, I tend to lose track
The words won't come out
Bad reputation when I go out without courage
On the covers again
No, no, no
More than I can imagine
This city hurts me
no, no, no, no, no
and the city leads me astray
no, no, no and the city hurts me
I leave your calls on read, it's a fatal plan
There's signs of danger under the cloak of this darkness
It's hard to tell the truth from the shadows
I search among your vices for somewhere to rest
A strange feeling that everything's gonna change
I come close to your temple not knowing what'll happen
And I don't know if I should breathe what you give me, because it's poison
and it's nothing good, because it burns, because it burns, no, no, no
I wanna be your voice, I tend to lose track
The words won't come out
Bad reputation when I go out without courage
On the covers again
No, no, no
More than I can imagine
This city hurts me
no, no, no, no, no
and the city leads me astray
no, no, no, the city leads me astray

sobredosisoverdose

Sobredosis is a dramatic word that literally translates to "overdose". It's a powerful choice for a song title that immediately grabs your attention.

In the lyrics, Íñigo Quintero sings about a "sobredosis de emoción" (an overdose of emotion). He uses this intense word metaphorically to describe being completely overwhelmed by his feelings, a sensation so strong it feels like too much to handle. This creates a vivid picture of emotional intensity that is central to the song's meaning.

This song feels like a late-night spiral after a painful breakup. Íñigo Quintero sings about a sudden, harsh return to the real world, saying, "Oigo las sirenas, choco con la realidad" (I hear the sirens, I crash with reality). He remembers a specific moment, a "sobredosis de emoción" (overdose of emotion), and how he used to look at someone completely captivated. Now that person is leaving, and he's left feeling lost and fragile in a city that hurts him.

The whole mood is dark and confused. He sings about danger hiding in the shadows and the difficulty of seeing the truth. The relationship sounds intense and maybe not so healthy; he admits he doesn't know if he should take what this person offers "porque es veneno" (because it's poison). He's avoiding their calls even though he knows it's a "plan fatal" (fatal plan), and worries about his reputation, feeling like he's always on the front pages for the wrong reasons.
