Danza Rota Lyrics in English Soda Stereo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Danza Rota by Soda Stereo from Spanish to English.
The lights burn my face
I can't find you
How to get out of this punishment
I'm a prisoner of a cruel rhythm
Here I am cracking
There's anarchy in my movements
And at the same time someone controls them
My ligaments are falling apart
I can't be free without you
Give me
Give me a clue
Some trace
To find you
I'm dancing a broken dance
I would like to escape
The lights burn my hands
With the depression
Nobody can stop
I'm an absurd grimace
Faking fun
Wishing for you
Give me
Give me a clue
Some trace
To find you
I'm dancing a broken dance
I would like to escape
Give me
Give me a clue
Some trace
To find you
I'm dancing a broken dance
I would like to escape
Broken dance
Give me, uh, uh, uh
Give me, uh, uh, uh
Give me a clue
Some trace
To find you
I'm dancing a broken dance
I would like to escape

SONG MEANING

Danza Rota drops you straight onto a blinding dancefloor where strobe lights sting your skin and the music pounds like a relentless jailer. The singer is caught in a “broken dance,” a wild yet mechanical routine that he cannot stop, even as his movements feel anarchic on the surface but strangely controlled from within. Every beat chips away at him, and the party atmosphere becomes a masquerade of forced smiles and absurd gestures.

Beneath the neon glare lies a desperate search for connection. He begs for “una pista” — a hint, a clue, a footprint — that will lead him to someone who can set him free. Without that person, freedom is impossible, depression closes in, and the dance keeps spinning out of control. The song cleverly turns a night out into a metaphor for alienation, showing how easy it is to look alive while feeling hollow inside, and how one genuine bond could break the spell and stop the music from owning you.
