This story is based on real life

On Tuesday, like never before, happier and in love

On Wednesday we talked about the ring and the wedding

Then I introduce you to my friends and you love them

On Thursday everything's fine, on Friday everything just gets worse

Out of nowhere you left and you told me 'It's not you, it's me'

I swear that I forgive you because God always forgives, and no

I don't get how one day everything's fine and the next day it's not

And crying more for you isn't worth it

That if I drown, let it be in booze and not in tears

That life goes on and nothing's that big a deal

For your bad vibes I light some palo santo

And with pride I dance it for you and sing it to you

And please

Don't look for me anymore

Yes, I cried to my psychologist

I switched my witch and my astrologer

To heal this heart

Besides, you call me 'crazy'

And what comes out of your mouth

It does hurt, oh, where did the love go?

Out of nowhere you left and you told me 'It's not you, it's me'

I swear that I forgive you because God always forgives, and no

I don't get how one day everything's fine and the next day it's not

And crying more for you isn't worth it

That if I drown, let it be in booze and not in tears

That life goes on and nothing's that big a deal

For your bad vibes I light some palo santo

And with pride I dance it for you and sing it to you

The good thing is that this is already over

SONG MEANING

“Palo Santo” is a cheeky breakup diary that unfolds day by day. On Tuesday the singer is blissfully in love, by Wednesday they are dreaming about rings, and by Friday the castle crumbles. Her ex disappears with the classic “It’s not you, it’s me,” leaving her dazed at how fast love can flip. The detailed weekday timeline makes the story feel like a rom-com montage that suddenly hits the pause button.

Instead of drowning in tears, Sofía Reyes lights a stick of palo santo as a symbol of cleansing away bad vibes. She forgives, books a session with her therapist, swaps out her witch and astrologer, and decides that if she is going to drown in anything, it will be tequila, not sorrow. The song celebrates self-worth, Latin pop swagger, and the power of dancing your heartbreak into thin air. By the final chorus she is not only over the relationship, she is proudly singing and dancing on its ashes—smelling fresh palo santo smoke and freedom.
