Verse 1

From the great dream, I don't want to wake up

And it fails me a bit more, my reality

I still feel them like a lump in my throat

And the memory becomes a storm

Chorus 1

In this house there aren't ghosts

They're just memories

From other times

From good moments

Postchorus 1

Vultures flew in the sky

That foretell demise

The end of times

We become eternal

Verse 2

So many photos filling the frames

My own museum

There aren't many trophies

With you, I have enough

And even though I carry you in my blood

It hurts to feel you so far away

You sparkle in the sky

And now I celebrate you

I keep trying

So close the impact

We have to be really strong to see death

Upright and honorable

Tired of thinking about it

I can't avoid it

I want us together to have one last drink with you

I've already lived what I could live

Sorry that I have to go

At night, I conquer the silence

And the absence of noise creates a void

Sorry that I have to go

Chorus 2

In this house there aren't ghosts

They're just memories

They're a thousand feelings

From what we lived

When you were here

fantasmas — ghosts

Fantasmas translates to "ghosts." This word is the title and central theme of this beautiful and emotional song about memory and loss.

Humbe cleverly turns the idea on its head, singing, "En esta casa no existen fantasmas, son puros recuerdos" (In this house, there are no ghosts, they're just pure memories). He suggests that the presences we feel of those we've lost aren't spooky apparitions, but rather the beautiful memories they left behind, which we should cherish.

This song is a beautiful way of looking at loss. Humbe sings about a house filled not with ghosts, but with memories. He makes this clear right away: "En esta casa no existen fantasmas / Son puros recuerdos" (In this house there are no ghosts / They are pure memories). The singer is surrounded by photos, which he calls "Mi propio museo" (My own museum), all dedicated to someone who is no longer there. It's a space where good times from the past feel very present.

He explores the pain of missing someone who is family, singing "Y aunque te lleve en la sangre / Me duele sentirte tan lejos" (And even though I carry you in my blood / It hurts to feel you so far away). But instead of just being sad, he chooses to celebrate their life. The song also reflects on the strength it takes to face death, and even seems to speak from the perspective of the person who has passed on, with the line "Perdón que me tenga que ir" (Forgive me for having to go). It's a deeply moving song about how we keep people alive by remembering them.
