Half anxious, not having you destroys me
I wish I had listened to the heart
Disappoint', missed telling you a thousand things
Maybe I came out flawed in love
And I
I don't know how I do it
Pa' endure to' what I feel for you
And I didn't manage to give it to you now
But in another life I know I do
They are the things of life
As much as you love something, let it go
They are the things of my life
In the ship of oblivion without you
You taught me everything but to forget
The more I think my universe shrinks
Nail' in my soul like rock to sword
Lost, floating in nothingness
I spend time in my subconscious
Dreaming of seeing you again
For those times there will be no substitute
I suffer in silence, like so many people
And I
I don't know how I do it
Pa' endure to' what I feel for you
And I didn't manage to give it to you now
But in another life I know I do
They are the things of life
As much as you love something, let it go
They are the things of my life
In the ship of oblivion without you
And that's life
There are things that are never forgotten
And that's right, the things of life
Maybe it's next time

defectuosadefective

Defectuosa translates to "defective" or "flawed". It's an interesting and somewhat unusual word to find in a pop song, especially when referring to oneself in the context of love.

In the lyrics, Paloma Mami sings, "Quizás salí defectuosa en el amor" (Perhaps I turned out defective in love). This self-deprecating line adds a layer of vulnerability and introspection, making the listener curious about why she feels this way and what experiences led her to this conclusion. It's a memorable word that stands out from typical romantic vocabulary.

Paloma Mami's "Cosas De La Vida" is a really relatable song about the pain of a breakup and the struggle to move on. She admits to being "Media ansiosa, no tenerte me destroza" [A bit anxious, not having you destroys me], showing how much this person meant to her. There's a real sense of regret, wishing she had listened to her heart more.

She feels a bit "defectuosa en el amor" [defective in love] and struggles with how to deal with all the feelings she has. The line "Me enseñaste de todo menos olvidar" [You taught me everything except how to forget] really hits hard, doesn't it? It's all about those things in life, as the title says, where even if you love something, sometimes you just have to let it go. She's lost in her thoughts, "flotando en la nada" [floating in nothingness], but still holds onto hope for a reunion, maybe even "en otra vida" [in another life].
