Verse 1

The anguish passes

So close to me

Verse 1

When from here

You go away

Verse 1

I know that insomnia

Is still around

Verse 1

Waiting for me to try to sleep

Chorus 1

I've been left alone and I didn't plan to live like this

I've been left alone and without you

It's so easy to go crazy

Chorus 1

I'm hitting rock bottom

I refuse to be without you

Chorus 1

I have to get you back

Or once and for all let you go

Chorus 1

I'm hitting rock bottom

It hurts to talk about you

Chorus 1

I don't want to pretend

Chorus 2

The rest of my life

Anguish comes back

To talk to me about you

When from here

You go away

I know that insomnia

Is still around

Waiting for me to try to sleep

I've been left alone and like this

I didn't plan to live

I've been left alone and without you

It's so easy to go crazy

I'm hitting rock bottom

I refuse to be without you

I have to get you back

Or once and for all let you go

I'm hitting rock bottom

It hurts to talk about you

I don't want to pretend

The rest of my life

That you don't matter to me anymore

I'm hitting rock bottom

I refuse to be without you

I have to get you back

Or once and for all let you go

I'm hitting rock bottom

It hurts to talk about you

I don't want to pretend

The rest of my life

I'm hitting rock bottom

I refuse to be without you

I have to get you back

Or once and for all let you go

I'm hitting rock bottom

It hurts to talk about you

I don't want to pretend

The rest of my life

That you don't matter to me anymore

SONG MEANING

Ever had one of those sleepless nights where the ceiling feels like your only friend? That is exactly where Kalimba places us in “Tocando Fondo” (“Hitting Rock Bottom”). Over a soulful R&B groove, he confesses how heartbreak has pushed him to the edge: anxiety lurks at his door, insomnia refuses to leave, and loneliness feels like an unexpected roommate. Every time he tries to move on, memories of his lost love sneak back in, making the darkness even darker.

Yet the song is not just a lament. It is a raw ultimatum to himself: either win her back or finally let her go. This internal tug-of-war fuels the chorus, creating a powerful portrait of someone caught between hope and despair. “Tocando Fondo” reminds us that hitting bottom can be painfully honest, but it can also spark the courage to choose a new direction.
