Pastillas Para Dormir drops us right into the shoes of a restless wanderer who slams the phone shut, grabs zero luggage, and heads for the horizon with a quick “hasta luego.” Estopa paint the picture of someone torn between love and hate, exhausted by unanswered messages, and desperately popping “sleeping pills” to hush the late-night replay of memories. Rain that once symbolized passion has “dried up,” so our narrator salutes the past, tips his hat, and chooses the open road—uncertain, but determined to keep living.
At its heart, this is a breakup anthem wrapped in road-trip imagery. The singer acknowledges that both partners have stopped missing each other, not even in dreams, and the only “roots” left are the scars of what once was. By stepping into solitude, he hopes to swap winter for a new spring inside himself. It is bittersweet yet liberating: a song about closing a chapter, battling insomnia, and trusting that every mile away from the pain brings a little more peace.
