Nada Lyrics in English by Zoé, Bunbury

Asecha comes from the verb asechar, meaning to 'stalk', 'lurk', or 'lie in wait'. It's a more intense and less common word than simply 'wait' or 'approach'.

In the song, Zoé uses it to describe how "la oscuridad me asecha incrédula" (the darkness stalks me incredulously). This personifies darkness, giving it an active, almost predatory role, which adds a dramatic and intriguing layer to the lyrics.

The first half of this song is a shopping list for someone who has stopped coping. The band hands the items over one at a time: "Transfusión de magia pura para el corazón" (a transfusion of pure magic for the heart), "Rímel de miel pa' corregir la tristeza" (honey mascara to correct the sadness), "Televisión para borrarse de la transmisión" (television to erase yourself from the broadcast). Every one is a treatment, and every one is slightly ridiculous, which is the joke and also the point. By the time the list arrives at "Revólver sexual para la ruleta rusa" (a sexual revolver for Russian roulette), the cures have quietly turned into dares.

Then the swagger drops away. "No sé tú ni qué dirás" (I don't know about you or what you'll say), León Larregui sings, and "Pero no hay nada mucho que pensar" (but there's not much to think about). That is the shrug of someone who has already decided. The chorus lands on "Nada que pueda perder" (nothing I can lose) and "Nada que no pueda hacer" (nothing I can't do), which reads as freedom until you hear it the other way round, as a person with nothing left to protect. The real request is the quiet line underneath: "Algo que te alivie, algo que me cure" (something to soothe you, something to cure me). Zoé then let the song wander off into almost two minutes of instrumental before the words come back for "No hay nada que pueda perder" (there's nothing I can lose), and after all that drifting it sounds less like a boast and more like an admission.
