It hurts if you leave, if you stay too

It hurts that you love me and that you're not here

It hurts that you live in a lie

And tell everyone that you feel good with him

It hurts that you live with someone else

just to look good

With those people who say they love you

But he doesn't know the meaning of what it is to want

Sometimes you look in the mirror and say enough is enough

But you don't have the courage to start over

You live with a thousand things on your mind

That you rehearse them but you know that they won't make it to the show

The world is full of weak people

That with the passage of time come back and become strong

We all follow a pattern that's why

We call those who are different crazy in this world

You don't have to be blind to not be able to see

You don't have to know each other to know

I don't know why people in the world always

They pretend things that never really come to be

If it doesn't get dark, dawn will never come

If it's never wrong then it's never right

You don't have to get up to avoid falling

You don't have to be taught to learn

It hurts if you leave, if you stay too

It hurts that you love me and that you're not here

It hurts that you live in a lie

And tell everyone that you feel good with him

It hurts that you live with someone else

just to look good

With those people who say they love you

But he doesn't know the meaning of what it is to want

They give us the tools, it's just building

But it seems that now it's easier not to feel

You live in a lie and you don't want to run away

Hard to convince and easy not to say

In life there are so many bad people who succeed

That sometimes I think that the good ones will not exist

But the good ones like me being good will die

Because only being good we are happy

It hurts if you leave, if you stay too

It hurts that you love me and that you're not here

It hurts that you live in a lie

And tell everyone that you feel good with him

It hurts that you live with someone else

just to look good

With those people who say they love you

But he doesn't know the meaning of what it is to want

Did you like this lyrics translation?

Jacob Forever's "Duele" is a really honest look at the pain of being stuck in a bad situation, especially in a relationship. He starts right away with the feeling of being trapped, saying "Duele si te vas, si te quedas también" (It hurts if you leave, it hurts if you stay too). It's that feeling where no matter what you do, it's going to hurt.

He talks about the hurt of someone you care about living a lie, pretending to be happy with someone else just to please other people. "Duele que vivas en una mentira / Y le cuentes a todos que tu te sientes bien con el" (It hurts that you live in a lie / And tell everyone that you feel good with him). It's a powerful message about the courage it takes to break free from what others expect and truly live for yourself. He even says, "No hace falta ser ciego para no poder ver" (You don't need to be blind not to see), which is such a blunt way of saying the truth is often right in front of us, even if we don't want to acknowledge it.
