Verse 1
We arrived by chance
We could've been something better
Verse 1
Pills so we won't sleep
And that our sensation never ends
To dream for our religion
And do it all just because
Addicted to this wannabe
That invites us to be pure contradiction
And it's so easy
To lose perspective
Stars and ghosts appear
Like Cinderella at the ball
The prettiest things bloom
When nobody sees them
When nobody sees them
We fell with style
Like cards through the air
Your shot always hits
And I feel vulnerable
And it's your blazing eyes
And my pupils demanding
Stars and ghosts appear
Like Cinderella at the ball
The prettiest things bloom
When nobody sees them
When nobody sees them
And it's your blazing eyes
And my pupils demanding
And me believing I'm divine
When we're looking at each other
We're two captive crazies
That are making it up
Stars and ghosts appear
Like Cinderella at the ball
The prettiest things bloom
When nobody sees them
When nobody sees them
Hey

SONG MEANING

Picture yourself wide-awake at midnight, chasing a feeling so electric that you refuse to let sleep steal it away. In “Estrellas y Fantasmas,” Spanish singer-songwriter David Otero turns that rush into a kaleidoscope of images: pills that keep the party alive, dreams turned into a personal religion, and sudden bursts of stars and ghosts that drift through the dark like Cinderella slipping into the royal ball. The song celebrates the thrill of throwing logic out the window, living on instinct, and dancing with every contradiction that pops up along the way.

Beneath the glitter, Otero slips in a gentle truth: the most beautiful moments often bloom when no one is watching. The lovers fall “like playing cards in the air,” eyes blazing, hearts vulnerable, inventing their own universe far from the spotlight. It is a hymn to secret magic, the kind that appears unannounced, disappears just as quickly, and leaves you wondering whether it was ever real—or whether that mystery is the point.
