La Versión En Mi Cabeza Lyrics in English Juanes

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Versión En Mi Cabeza by Juanes from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
It's that I'm already tired
Of believing your words
Verse 1
And treating with band-aids
Your bullet wounds
Verse 1
It's that I'm already tired
Putting myself second
Verse 1
And seeing how much it costs me
To admit that it's my fault
Verse 1
You call me because you know that I always answer you
You know very well that when I hear your voice, I fall apart
Chorus 1
I come back every time even if I don't want to
To the version of you that only exists in my head
I know that you never wanted to hurt me
But what do I do?
Asking you to change is already too much
I hope that someday you regret it
When someone else finally comes along who
doesn't love me halfway
Verse 2
You don't understand that I wish
To run away from what I feel
Verse 2
But I'm burying
My feet in the cement
Verse 2
I'm afraid that every time I see you it's the same
That I let you come back always without warning
That I live my life at your rhythm
And that you think that I need you
Chorus 2
I come back every time even if I don't want to
To the version of you that only exists in my head
I know that you never wanted to hurt me
But what do I do?
Asking you to change is already too much
I hope that someday you regret it
When someone else finally comes along who
doesn't love me halfway
Chorus 3
I come back every time even if I don't want to
To the version of you that only exists in my head
I know that you never wanted to hurt me
But what do I do?
Asking you to change is already too much

SONG MEANING

La Versión En Mi Cabeza finds Colombian superstar Juanes caught in the push-and-pull of an unbalanced relationship. The singer knows he keeps patching up serious “bullet-wound” hurts with tiny “band-aid” cures, yet he still answers every late-night call. He admits that he is in love with an idealized version of his partner that lives only in his imagination. Each time he sees this person, he risks sinking deeper, “burying his feet in cement,” while they continue to give him only half-hearted affection.

Despite the heartbreak, the song carries a spark of self-empowerment. Juanes realizes it is “too much” to ask the other person to change, so he starts shifting the focus to himself, hoping that one day he will find someone who loves him completely. With catchy melodies and vivid metaphors, the track paints a relatable picture of breaking free from a love that never quite measures up, all while reminding listeners that self-worth should never come second.
