I was never what I could not be

And it could be that I am only what I could

I am the hawk that no longer wants to see

And he learned to put the hood on by himself

someone move the bell

But he hides the poison and the fangs

It's the way to fall

It is the way to return from the abyss

describe for no reason

To say it out of pure fear of not knowing how to say it

to squeeze the heart

To loosen the head bolts

Hey! you who see me

tell me who am i

Hey! who needs a king

Having here a jester

A firm criterion as a tombstone

a thick layer of cement

Everything was erased when turning the page

There was an explosion for every attempt

oh oh oh

The reason is found by the guilty

The truth falls by the wayside

There is no longer a heart where we can take refuge

Of ourselves, of ourselves

Hey! you who see me

tell me who am i

Hey! who needs a king

Having here a jester

And every time you look at me

If you meet me just once

Just once for every time

Of every time I say

that it is so easy to lose

The sight as the gaze

If no one ever remembered

If everything had been nothing

And though it's all you believe

It's never just what you see

And you are being born each time

And every time corpse

Pa pa pa pa pa

cadáver — corpse

Cadáver translates directly to "corpse" or "dead body". It's a striking and somewhat morbid word that stands out in song lyrics, making it highly memorable and unique.

In "Cada Vez Cadáver," the phrase "Y vas naciendo cada vez / Y cada vez cadáver" creates a powerful paradox. It suggests a continuous cycle of birth and death, or perhaps a feeling of being reborn into a state of emotional lifelessness with each passing moment. This dark yet poetic imagery makes the word particularly enticing for learners.

Fito y Fitipaldis bring us a really thought-provoking track with "Cada Vez Cadáver" (Each Time, a Corpse). It feels like a deep dive into self-reflection, almost a conversation with himself and with us, the listeners. The opening lines, "Nunca fui lo que no pude ser / Y pudiera ser que solo soy lo que he podido" (I never was what I couldn't be / And it could be that I'm only what I've been able to be), set the tone perfectly, suggesting a resignation to one's limitations but also a quiet acceptance.

The song explores themes of identity and perception, asking us directly, "¡Eh! Vosotros que me veis / Decidme quién soy yo" (Hey! You who see me / Tell me who I am). It's a blunt question, almost challenging us to define him. He even wonders, "Quién necesita un rey / Teniendo aquí un bufón" (Who needs a king / Having a jester here), which is a funny, self-deprecating line that makes you think about the roles we play. The idea of constant change and rebirth, even in death, comes through in the powerful closing lines: "Y vas naciendo cada vez / Y cada vez cadáver" (And you are born each time / And each time a corpse). It's a cyclical view of life and endings, both a bit dark and incredibly profound.
