Por El Miedo A Equivocarnos Lyrics in English Maldita Nerea

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Por El Miedo A Equivocarnos by Maldita Nerea from Spanish to English.
We were different, impossible
And a future less clear
To clearly understand what you say
Makes me feel so weird
Everything starts to become sad
To stay on the other side
You also promised that
We were two mistaken, mistaken
And now this place is full
Of nights without art
Of empty hugs
Of worlds apart
Of ice in the eyes
Of fear of meeting
Of gaps, of breaks, of desire to hate each other
I've been feeling it already, I'm running out of air
The sky has fallen, it's dying, it's breaking
It's only a sustained hell
It's only a relative effort
I ask for almost nothing
That my senses get lost
And your gaze clouds
But fear gets us
It grows big in these hands
A bad memory chases us
We were two mistaken
Mistaken
I'm leaving, I'm leaving
Because this place is full
Of nights without art
Of empty hugs
Of worlds apart
Of ice in the eyes
Of fear of meeting
Of gaps, of breaks, of desire to hate each other
I've been feeling it already I'm running out of air
The star has fallen, it's dying, it's breaking
It's just a sustained hell
Because of the fear of being wrong
Because this place is full
Of nights without art
Of empty hugs
Of ice in the eyes
Of worlds apart
Of fallen skies
And I've already been feeling it
I'm running out of air
It's only a sustained hell
Because of the fear of being wrong
I don't want to hear you
Don't insist, I prefer to find you this time
Flooding my eyes
Waiting for it to pass
For us to fall again
And I only say that
I never wanted to hurt you
But everything slipped away from us
And although now we're like strangers
I will never forget you
Of nights without art
Of empty hugs
Of worlds apart
Of ice in the eyes
Of fear of meeting
Of gaps, of breaks, of desire to hate each other
And I only say that I never wanted to hurt you
It's only a sustained hell
Because of the fear of being wrong
The fear of being wrong
I only say that
I never wanted to hurt you
It's only a sustained hell
Because of the fear of being wrong

SONG MEANING

Por El Miedo A Equivocarnos is a heartfelt confession about a relationship that drowns under its own insecurities. Maldita Nerea paints two lovers who once felt “imposibles” yet magnetic, only to watch every embrace turn into an abrazo vacío and every conversation into a reminder of how far apart they have drifted. The chorus stacks vivid images—noches sin arte, mundos aparte, hielo en los ojos—to show that fear of making mistakes has frozen their love in place, converting what could have been magical into an infierno sostenido (a lingering hell).

Beneath the melancholy, the song carries a clear message: when we let the miedo a equivocarnos (fear of messing up) dictate our choices, we end up suffocating both ourselves and those we care about. The narrator’s final decision to leave is not spiteful; it is an act of self-rescue, a bittersweet acknowledgment that love cannot survive on fear alone. The track invites listeners to confront their anxieties, to risk error, and to keep their hearts open—otherwise, even the brightest connection can fade into silence.
