Most likely, this song is dedicated to Rodrigo Rojas Denegri who died on 2 July 1986. He and Carmen Gloria Quintana were participating in a protest demonstration in Chile when ex-Army officer, Pedro Fernánez Dittus poured petrol on them and set them on fire. Rodrigo Rojas Denegri died of his injuries and Carmen Gloria Quintana was badly scarred. On 6 December 1995 the Supreme Court confirmed a 600-day prison sentence for Pedro Fernánez Dittus for the death and injuries he caused that day.
