Desbarata comes from the verb desbaratar, meaning 'to unravel', 'to ruin', or 'to mess up'. It's a strong and evocative word that goes beyond simple sadness.

"Restos De Abril" is a breakup song built on one request, repeated in different shapes: take everything with you so nothing gets left behind to hurt later. He opens with "Llévate los restos de abril" ("Take away the remains of April"). Take the whole month, the seconds on the clock, and a heart he calls "roto en dos" ("broken in two"). The chorus keeps circling back to the same plea: take the dreams, take the sun, because without her he is "desorientado" and "vivo congelado" ("disoriented" and "living frozen").
What keeps the song from turning maudlin is how specific the wish list gets. He does not ask for closure or peace. He asks for her name to leave his voice, for the silence to be handed the job of speaking for him, for the "universo que se vuelve tan pequeño" ("universe that becomes so small") without her. By the last chorus he is down to one word alone on its own line, "Amor" ("Love"), said again like he is still testing whether saying it changes anything. It stays sad rather than bitter, all the way to that last, small word.
