Un Millon De Cicatrices Lyrics in English El Canto del Loco

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Un Millon De Cicatrices by El Canto del Loco from Spanish to English.
Today I find again
My heart that I had hidden
Inside a drawer
Close to affection
And to the manual of how to make me a man
And I had such a hard time looking around
Being so lost, out of control
Close to danger
Without balance and losing my direction
And I ask myself why?
I loved myself so little, I shut myself away
Going round and round something that I created
And from thinking I have a million scars
I'm a shield, I'm hypersensitive
A barrier to the heart
And I don't like having been this sad
Because of paranoias I gave myself
Those wounds inside me
What a great release that I feel today
As I slowly walk through the heart
That is stronger
It knows what it wants and no longer hides
How great it is to see myself today without what came before
Feeling calm being what I am
Harmless, serene, kind and loving
And I ask myself why?
I loved myself so little, I shut myself away
Going round and round something that I created
And from thinking I have a million scars
I'm a shield, I'm hypersensitive
A barrier to the heart
And I don't like having been this sad
Because of paranoias I gave myself
Those wounds inside me
And from thinking I have a million scars
I'm a shield, I'm hypersensitive
A barrier to the heart
And I don't like having been this sad
Because of paranoias I gave myself
Those wounds inside me
Inside me
Inside me
Inside me
Inside me
A million scars

SONG MEANING

Imagine opening an old drawer and finding your own heart tucked away inside. That is the starting point of “Un Millón de Cicatrices,” where Dani Martín sings about rediscovering himself after years of self-doubt and emotional turbulence. The lyrics take us from a dark maze of paranoia, insecurity, and self-imposed isolation to a bright moment of liberation. Each "cicatriz" (scar) represents overthinking and pain he once inflicted on himself, but also the proof that he survived. The song is a confession and a celebration at the same time: “Hoy vuelvo a encontrar mi corazón” marks the turning point where he finally decides to treat himself with kindness.

By the chorus he admits, “Soy un escudo, soy hipersensible,” capturing that universal feeling of putting up walls while being extra sensitive inside. Yet the energy of the music transforms this vulnerability into power. As the track progresses, the singer embraces qualities like being “inofensivo, sereno, amable y cariñoso.” The result is an upbeat anthem about converting past wounds into strength and stepping back into the world with a braver, softer heart—proof that every scar can turn into a badge of growth.
