Dime Mentiras Lyrics in English Carla Morrison

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Dime Mentiras by Carla Morrison from Spanish to English.
I'm searching for you in the gazes of others
I search deep in their eyes
Some trace of you
I find your absence
Screaming in silence
Marking every moment
That you're no longer here
Tell me that everything is a lie
That everything is only a nightmare
That I'm not alone and you haven't left my life
Tell me that you're still here
Tell me that nothing is true
That our life goes on and everything is perfect
That you didn't leave and you still remain in your body
Tell me that you're still here
In this unhappy world
Mmm
This unhappy world
Mmm
Today I don't want
To keep confirming that event
I close my eyes and fill you with kisses
Don't leave me here
I want you alive
If you don't come back I can no longer understand my life
There were plans and years of joy
Kissing your gray hair
They tell me that I must be strong for my mind and for my body
But they don't understand that today I've lost a part of me forever
Tell me that everything is a lie
That everything is only a nightmare
That I'm not alone and you haven't left my life
Tell me that you're still here
Tell me that nothing is true
That our life goes on and everything is perfect
That you didn't leave and you still remain in your body
Tell me that you're still here
Tell me that everything is a lie
That everything is only a nightmare
That I'm not alone and you haven't left my life
Tell me that you're still here
Tell me that nothing is true
That our life goes on and everything is perfect
That you didn't leave and you still remain in your body
Tell me that you're still here
In this unhappy world
This unhappy world

SONG MEANING

Dime Mentiras ("Tell Me Lies") plunges us into that raw moment when the heart simply refuses to accept a painful goodbye. Over elegant indie-pop instrumentation, Carla Morrison—an artist who bridges the intimacy of Mexican boleros with the indie scene of the United States—voices a desperate wish: “Tell me it’s all a lie, tell me you’re still here.” She searches strangers’ eyes for a trace of her lover, imagines kissing them back to life, and begs for the impossible reversal of time. The chorus loops like a mantra, mirroring the way grief circles through denial again and again.

Behind its gentle melody lies a universal confession: when someone we love disappears, the world feels "este mundo infeliz"—an unhappy planet—unless we can cling to even the tiniest hint that everything is still perfect. Morrison captures that paradox with heartbreaking clarity, turning personal sorrow into a cathartic sing-along that reminds listeners they’re not alone in wishing reality could just, for one shining moment, be rewritten.
