Tibios literally translates to "lukewarm" or "tepid." While it can describe temperature, in this song, it's used metaphorically to describe a lack of passion or commitment in a relationship.
The lyrics state, "Fuimos tibios," meaning "We were lukewarm." This implies that both parties in the relationship were indifferent or half-hearted, ultimately leading to its failure. It's an interesting and less common way to express emotional detachment in a song.
"Recuerdos en Común" is a breakup told without a villain. The opening line sets the terms right away: No hay culpables, there is nobody to blame. The relationship was a love "for the photo", held together by the fear of being alone rather than by anything real, and both people let the chance slip by being lukewarm about it.
The chorus is the turn, and it is relief rather than heartbreak. He has been waiting for this day, wanting to say goodbye to her face and walk back out into the street as himself again. Love only blooms when two people want it, and she is asking to try again too late. Empezar de cero, qué pinche emoción, starting from scratch is the exciting part.
The hook is where the title lands. Don't come looking for me, and worse than that, from here on we are two strangers who happen to share a set of memories. Eden Muñoz and Alfredo Olivas trade the lines over a regional Mexican arrangement, and the last words of the track are Eden's shout to his guest: Macizo suena, compa Alfredo.
