A sanjuan newspaper wrote this small saddest story, about a 17-year-old teenage girl who commited suicide on Chimbas in 2014, because "No one understood her" (according his younger brother, who told this to the press).
Sometimes, the little stories provocate little songs, like this one.
lyrics
Lily anduvo perdida en el mar,
cayendo a pique sin saber volar.
Dentro del cuarto de su niñez
quiere abrirse, quiere poderse escapar.
Valor ya tiene pa' hacerse matar.
Lily camina sola en el zaguán,
cándida y firme sin molestar.
Los días previos le hicieron ver
que no hay misterios, que no hay voluntad
en este mundo, ciudad diván.
Lily probó la fruta del dolor,
sucia y podrida (con ese color pálido, amargo).
La vida al viento, suelto así sin más.
Tiempos perdidos, tiempos de resurrección.
Hay esperanza? Sólo vacilación...
Canta tu rencor, vuela con esas cosas infelices.
En este, tu rincón de luz, vos ves amor.
Búscate una ilusión, crea un mundo de inquietudes.
En este, tu rincón de luz, sólo hay amor.
