There are times in life when we depend on others
No one died for love even with a broken heart
But it's true that it hurts when you feel so alone
Thinking about what you lost and that you gave everything to him
Maybe with time
The flame will be extinguished by the wind
Also dragging the feelings
Who said love was perfect?
Is a love and I can not
I can do what I want and not be sincere
But I can't be like you
I don't want someone like you
I don't want to be that toy thrown away in your room
I also don't want you to forget me locked in a drawer
I want something better, I want something better
I deserve better, I deserve better
I never thought it would happen
And when you see him die your little eyes go out
I remember you, what a strange feeling
Hear me say it's over
It wasn't how I imagined
I know that deep down you weren't that bad
Trying to make me jealous didn't help
Because I don't want it that way
I try to understand it and I can't
And I can't feel this halfway
Neither act as if nothing happened, nor give ourselves time
Live for moments and the rest bad
And what does it matter to me if love is blind?
Let it come again trying to fix
Because I can't be like you
I don't want to be like you
I don't want to be that toy thrown away in your room
I also don't want you to forget me locked in a drawer
I want something better, I want something better
I deserve better, I deserve better
I don't want to be that toy thrown away in your room
I also don't want you to forget me locked in a drawer
I want something better, I want something better
I deserve better, I deserve better

Arrastrando means "dragging" or "pulling along." It's a vivid verb that paints a strong picture of something being forcefully moved.

In the song, Maka uses it to describe how the wind, after extinguishing the flame of love, also "drags along" the feelings. This powerful imagery conveys the idea that not only does the love die, but the associated emotions are also swept away, emphasizing the finality and pain of the breakup.

Have you ever felt like you're giving your all in a relationship, only to realize you deserve so much more? That's exactly what Maka and Juancho Marqués are singing about in "Algo Mejor" [Something Better]. It's a really honest look at those moments when you're heartbroken and feel alone, even if, as they say, "Nadie murió por amores aún con el corazón roto" [Nobody died from love, even with a broken heart].

The song talks about how love isn't always perfect and sometimes the flame just dies out. They sing about not wanting to be a "juguete tirao' en tu habitación" [toy thrown in your room] or forgotten "encerrao' en un cajón" [locked in a drawer]. It's a powerful declaration of self-worth, saying, "Yo quiero algo mejor, yo merezco algo mejor" [I want something better, I deserve something better]. It's all about realizing you can't force something that isn't working and choosing to move on for your own good.
