Verse 1

I'm leaving now to see if I forget

that ingrate who cut short my life

There's no faith, no love or hope anymore

In my life, everything's over

I don't want to wish her bad luck

or ask her to come back to my side

I only want her to suffer like I suffer

that it hurts her that she abandoned me

Verse 2

I'm leaving now, I carry a wound in my soul

I can't forget her memory

I only know that she destroyed my life

May God keep her and give her His forgiveness

I only feel sorry to leave my poor parents

I didn't know how to understand their advice

If death or fate condemn us

I'll be content with my own suffering

SONG MEANING

Vida Truncada captures the raw sting of heartbreak when love turns its back on you. In the song, the narrator decides to leave town to escape the memory of an “ingrata” who shattered his world. Hope, faith, and love have all vanished, and he carries a wound that refuses to heal. Even though he does not wish her outright misfortune, he admits he wants her to feel the same pain he is drowning in—a candid confession many listeners will secretly understand.

What makes this corrido so gripping is its blend of sorrow and stoic acceptance. The singer blesses his former lover, asks heaven to forgive her, yet still owns his suffering as a personal fate. He also regrets ignoring his parents’ advice, hinting at lessons learned too late. Ariel Camacho’s heartfelt vocals turn these conflicting emotions into a bittersweet anthem for anyone who has loved deeply, lost hard, and walked away determined to survive.
