"Los zumbidos" - extortions and crime lead people to run away from home, they often find only the cold and the desert.
The infinite loop of migrating and being sent back to a country that isn't your home anymore.
"En espera" - waiting for answers, hoping for freedom.
"A la buena de Dios" - Coming of age can be a curse when there are wolves trying to kill you. 
"Ya falta poco" - "we're almos there" déjà vu of attempts to scape the darkness, you try and try again waiting to see the light. Crossing the border safely is your only hope.
"No queres despertar" -confined in a quarantine in a pandemic, confined in your memories of better days that seem impossible now, you don't want to wake up. The reality is too hard.
