No, no, no, no, no

That 'me' you knew

Because of you, I don't see it anymore

When I'm in front of the mirror

Without your reflection, I don't want to look

Even though we ended badly

I still wish you well

I love you passionately

But I feel that I also hate you

I hear your voice in my bedroom

But you're not here

You're not here anymore

Without you, I'm a lifeless body

Baby, I already look like a mannequin

I look like a mannequin

Looking at the ceiling, I can't sleep

If you're not lying on top of me on my chest

I know you're not going to return

I don't know why I'm waiting for you

If they ask me, I don't say I'm single

Because I’m still processing it

Overthinking it

I suppose love doesn't exist

But here I am still looking for it

Advice they give me, but I end up ignoring it

I end up skipping it

I know that later there are other people

But my home was with you, it got cold

I get to the room and don't feel enough

Because I hear your voice in my bedroom

But you're not here

You're not here anymore

Without you, I'm a lifeless body

Baby, I already look like a mannequin

I look like a mannequin

My friends and your love died

And they hurt me every time

And it seems there are no charges or judges for that

I don’t understand how you want me not to feel pain, je

If nobody finds the love of their life more than twice

And now I'm alone, I will go toward myself

How they killed Pa, you know I didn’t deal with it

And maybe they want to get to me

But don’t worry about me

I leave them watching monsters

And the monsters watching me

Your best game is playing

Life is the end, dealing with Satan

Our love will never serve

Trust made us steal

That fear of seeing you leave finished sinking us

This love hides from us

But they keep telling me 'that now you're better'

But better with whom and where?

That desire even to strangle you

I curse love and the one who gives it

Me thinking I loved you

And starting to hate you, nah

They say, 'Kendo, you still keep drinking

And you don’t stop medicating'

And I keep feeling this hell just thinking of you

Part by part I'm breaking

It's that I don’t want to, don’t can, don’t understand

I’m another sick person who doesn’t accept he’s dying

In the Urus and in the Ferra

I’ve written you so many songs

That fill gigs and teras

I bet whatever you want

That you’ll go more than once around the Earth

The featuring was with Juan Luis

To the title I put 'War'

And now I forget more frequently if I don’t aim

Maybe I still love you, but I send someone else

I never ask about you

I ate the Perco, the commas, and the period

I haven’t taken my life

But a thousand times I was close, The Demon

Last night I spoke with destiny

And it told me I had to forget you

But if nobody has what you have

How am I going to get over you, ma?

You wish me harm

And I'm not art

That I failed you, I’m clear about that

Partly you forced me

I hear your voice in my bedroom

But you're not here

You're not here anymore

Without you, I'm a lifeless body

Baby, I already look like a mannequin

I look like a mannequin

Hey

We are The Eternal

And these are the most important voices in the industry

Jay Wheeler, iZaak

The Demon

Baby, today The Eternal

And this happens

For looking for angels in hell

Zachiel

The Chosen

My bro

Start living and stop insisting

Let her go

And you’ll see who really held the bond

Who loves you

Who loves you is the one who doesn’t make you doubt

APOCALYPSE

maniquí — mannequin

Maniquí translates to "mannequin". It's an interesting word choice that paints a vivid picture of the artist's emotional state.

In the song, Kendo Kaponi uses "maniquí" to describe feeling like a lifeless, empty body without his loved one. He sings, "Sin ti soy un cuerpo sin vida, Baby, ya parezco un maniquí" (Without you I'm a lifeless body, Baby, I already look like a mannequin), conveying a profound sense of emptiness and emotional paralysis.

The song runs on one image: the version of Kendo Kaponi the breakup left standing. "Sin ti soy un cuerpo sin vida / Baby, ya parezco un maniquí" (Without you I'm a lifeless body / Baby, I already look like a mannequin). He can't face the mirror any more — "Sin el reflejo tuyo no quiero mirar" (Without your reflection I don't want to look) — and the bedroom keeps playing her back to him: "Escucho tu voz en mi recámara / Pero tú no estás aquí" (I hear your voice in my bedroom / But you're not here). He won't even say the word out loud: "Si me preguntan, no digo que estoy soltero" (If they ask me, I don't say I'm single).

He never picks a side about her, either. "Yo te amo con cojones / Pero siento que te odio también" (I love you like hell / But I feel like I hate you too) sits two lines from "Comoquiera te deseo el bien" (I still wish you well). The long verse leaves the romance behind and lists everything else he's carrying — his father's killing ("Cómo mataron a Pa"), the drinking and the pills his friends keep bringing up ("Kendo, aún sigues bebiendo / Y no para' de medicarte'"), and the songs he wrote her instead of sleeping, down to the one he cut with Juan Luis Guerra: "Al título le puse 'Guerra'" (I called it 'War'). Jay Wheeler and iZaak close the track with the only advice anyone offers in it — "Empieza a vivir y deja de insistir / Suéltala" (Start living and stop pushing / Let her go).
