Verse 1

Baby, while you sleep

I'd like to imagine that you've already taken off your makeup

And that you're lying in your bed

I'm out in the crowd

Drinking Blue and singing

Living the life of a rockstar

Everything I told my mom

Chorus 1

Baby, I always think of you

I can't get out of this depression

I'm worried that another man will approach you

Baby, I always miss you

You never leave my mind

Or: I can't get you out of my mind

And honestly, I've lost count of how many months

While you must be sleeping, dreaming of someone else

And what we had died so soon

Or: And what happened to us died soon

I feel broken, I feel alone

And I can't regret it

Although it was short, I gave you everything, and you didn't do the same for me

Pure Junior H

Verse 2

Today everything is different

You've already changed, I've changed

And you made all those mistakes that you kept denying to me

Or: You committed all those mistakes that you were saying you didn't

I'm out in the crowd

I was chasing the dream, and all I asked of you

Was that no matter what, you wouldn't move away

Chorus 2

Baby, I always think of you

I can't get out of this depression

I'm worried that another man will approach you

Baby, I always miss you

You never leave my mind

And honestly, I've lost count of how many months

While you must be sleeping, dreaming of someone else

And what we had died so soon

I feel broken, I feel alone

And I can't regret it

Although it was short, I gave you everything, and you didn't do the same for me

despintada — without makeup

Despintada is an intimate word that literally means "unpainted," or more commonly, "without makeup on." It's used to describe someone in their most natural and vulnerable state.

In the song's opening, Junior H sings about imagining his love despintada and resting in her bed. This tender, private image contrasts sharply with his own chaotic "rockstar" life, highlighting his deep longing for a simple, authentic moment with her.

Junior H gives us a late-night brain dump in "MIENTRAS DUERMES", stuck between living out his dreams and obsessing over an ex. While she is peacefully asleep in bed, he is out in crowds sipping Blue (a nod to Johnnie Walker Blue Label) and living the rockstar life he promised his mom. But the party is not working. He admits he cannot shake his depression with the casual line "No salgo de la depre" [I can't get out of this depression], spiraling over the thought of another guy getting close to her.

He uses great Mexican slang to show how tired and stuck he feels, admitting "la neta ya perdí la cuenta de cuánto meses" [honestly, I've already lost count of how many months]. La neta is everyday street talk for "the truth" or "honestly." Even though he claims "lo de nosotros se murió pronto" [what we had died quickly], he still feels broken (roto) and alone (solo) because he gave her everything while she held back. It is a messy, honest look at fame not being enough to fix a bruised heart.
