Los Hombres También Lloran Lyrics in English by Juanfran
Emborracharme means "to get drunk." While it might seem like a common word, its direct and unapologetic use at the very beginning of the song sets a raw and emotional tone.
In the context of the lyrics, the singer wants to get drunk "Y así calmar esta ansiedad" (And thus calm this anxiety) and "olvidar que te fuiste" (forget that you left). This word immediately plunges the listener into the protagonist's struggle with heartbreak and his coping mechanisms, making it a powerful and relatable entry point into the song's narrative.
Juanfran's "Los Hombres También Lloran" is a really honest look at heartbreak and how tough it is to move on. He's ready to "emborracharme Y así calmar esta ansiedad" [get drunk and calm this anxiety] because he wants to forget his ex and accept that she's gone. He admits he's human and makes mistakes, saying "me equivoco soy humano" [I make mistakes, I'm human]. It's clear he still loves her, even though he's letting her go, and he can't imagine anyone else: "No hay nadie más En mi mente tú eres la única persona" [There's no one else, in my mind you are the only person].
He talks about how lost he feels without her, saying "Mi vida pierde el rumbo Porque tu eres todo Y sin ti me hundo" [My life loses its way because you are everything and without you I sink]. Even though it's over, he still imagines sending her a thousand messages and getting a thousand replies. The title itself, "Los hombres también lloramos Cuando perdemos Algo que tenemos" [Men also cry when we lose something we have], is a powerful statement about how men experience and express sadness, showing that it's okay to be vulnerable when you're hurting.
