Verse 1
My piano doesn't have black keys anymore
They've been dyed and now I can't see them
They camouflage like the white of zebras
That at night you don't see
Or: That you can't see at night
Who told you that I like mirrors?
If they reflect what everyone can see
Better claw my eyes if it's inside
And don't be scared if this time
Prechorus 1
You discover your enemy looking at your belly button
It's you, nobody else, don't look for it outside
Addicts to the danger, that has to break the plans
Chorus 1
And I, who bites everything
Lit: And I, that everything I bite
And you, castle of wax
You'll see that the fire in your body doesn't always burn you
And you're so alive inside
And I, so broken on the outside
I am color white and black, and you're my watercolor
In Spanish, you say 'blanco y negro' (white and black) rather than 'negro y blanco' (black and white)
And you my watercolor
Watercolor, also aquarelle, is a painting method in which the paints are made of pigments suspended in a water-based solution
Verse 2
Where do I look when I don't have strength left?
Where is so much life and so much faith born?
There are questions that now have no answer
And then you understand why
I'm afraid of not finding the melody
That has this song stuck in my head all day
And it's my way of loving you, what irony
Look what contradiction
Or: Look at what a contradiction
Prechorus 2
You discover your enemy looking at your belly button
It's you, nobody else, don't look for it outside
Addicts to the danger, that has to break the plans
Chorus 2
And I, who bites everything
And you, castle of wax
You'll see that the fire in your body doesn't always burn you
And you're so alive inside
And I, so broken on the outside
I am color white and black, and you're my watercolor
In Spanish, you say 'blanco y negro' (white and black) rather than 'negro y blanco' (black and white)
And you my watercolor
Watercolor, also aquarelle, is a painting method in which the paints are made of pigments suspended in a water-based solution

SONG MEANING

“Castillo de Cera” paints a vibrant picture of two opposites who spark when they collide. The singer feels monochrome—all sharp edges and piano keys that have lost their color—while the other person is a living splash of paint, a fragile but dazzling wax castle that can melt yet never loses its brilliance. Through clever imagery, Dvicio explores self-reflection and vulnerability: the real enemy is often inside us, not outside, and daring to break the rules can be as addictive as it is frightening.

At its heart, the song is an ode to the chemistry between contrast. One partner is “broken on the outside,” the other “alive on the inside,” and together they learn that fire does not always burn—sometimes it forges something new. By mixing fears, contradictions, and a burst of color against black-and-white, Dvicio invites listeners to embrace their imperfections, face their inner mirror, and let love blur the lines between safety and risk.
