Verse 1

I can't explain what happened

I can only tell you that it didn't work

The blame wasn't yours, it was both of us

Or: The fault wasn't yours, it was ours

For being so capricious

Or: For being so stubborn

We held on so strongly

That we got tired so quickly

We reached a distant and dark point

And there we got lost

Prechorus 1

And still

I go seeking the exit of this labyrinth

Or: I'm looking for the way out of this maze

Someone give me a map because I have lost myself

Or: That someone give me a map because I got lost

And I don't know how to walk anymore if I don't go with you

Chorus 1

I try to fly but I don't have wings

There were so many things left in your bed

That I feel that even the time escapes me

Your words sing to me in my early mornings

And the wind brings from your house

This melody that doesn't end

Verse 2

Little by little, step by step

We were drifting apart

Like water becomes ice

We freeze

We weren't able to behave ourselves

Like human beings

We were wild and animals

Or: We were wild and animalistic

Until we killed ourselves

Prechorus 2

And still

I'm still lost in the desert of your cowardice

I told you that if you don't try you wouldn't know

And if some day it would work

Chorus 2

I try to fly but I don't have wings

There were so many things left in your bed

That I feel that even the time escapes me

Your words sing to me in my early mornings

And the wind brings from your house

This melody that doesn't end

Chorus 3

I try to fly but I don't have wings

There were so many things left in your bed

That I feel that even the time escapes me

And I want to fly but I don't have wings

There were so many things left in your bed

That I feel that even the time escapes me

Your words sing to me in my early mornings

And the wind brings from your house

This melody that doesn't end

laberinto — labyrinth

Laberinto translates directly to "labyrinth" or "maze". It's a word that immediately conjures a vivid image of being lost and disoriented, making it quite memorable and engaging.

In the song, the artist uses laberinto metaphorically to describe the confusing and difficult situation he finds himself in after a breakup. He sings, "Ando buscando la salida de este laberinto" (I'm looking for the exit from this labyrinth), perfectly capturing the feeling of being trapped and searching for a way out of emotional turmoil.

This song is a classic cuarteto banger about a relationship that burned out way too fast. Ulises Bueno isn't trying to be subtle here. He says they held on so tight and were so stubborn—"tan caprichosos" [so stubborn]—that they just exhausted themselves. He even admits they became "salvajes y animales / Y hasta que nos matamos" [savage and animalistic / until we killed each other]. It's a really intense way to describe a breakup, where the passion was also the thing that destroyed them.

Now, he's completely lost. He feels like he's stuck in a maze, asking for a map because "ya no sé cómo se camina si no voy contigo" [I don't know how to walk anymore if I'm not with you]. The chorus is what really gets you: "Intento volar pero no llevo alas" [I try to fly but I have no wings]. He's left behind so many things in her bed, and her words still echo in his mind. It's the sound of someone who wants to move on but is totally powerless to do so.
