Ese Maldito Momento Lyrics in English No te va Gustar

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ese Maldito Momento by No te va Gustar from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
The half-empty road like my life without you
Who would've imagined
that the moment would come
that damn moment of looking away
Chorus 1
and not seeing you in my mornings nor smiling with your voice
It's feeling cornered
It's for not having appreciated
and I myself having thrown away what life gave me
I won't go on anymore, I've got nothing left
I'm only this, just mud
I have nothing, I don't deserve it
Don't pity me
Verse 2
Maybe it's only my clumsiness or maybe it's my way of walking
I couldn't follow your footsteps
I went falling to pieces
Only scraps were left and I couldn't put them together
Chorus 2
If you're not in my mornings, if I don't laugh with you
If I feel cornered
It's for not having appreciated
and I myself having thrown away what life gave me
I won't go on anymore, I've got nothing left
I'm only this, just mud
I have nothing, I don't deserve it
Don't pity me

SONG MEANING

Ese Maldito Momento captures the raw sting of regret when you realize, a little too late, what you have lost. The narrator drives along an almost empty road that mirrors the emptiness he feels without his partner. Each line is a confession: he ignored what life had generously given him, threw it away with his own hands, and now wakes up to mornings without her smile. The song paints heartbreak as a self-inflicted wound, where love’s absence feels like being cornered with nowhere to run.

Rather than blaming fate, the singer looks inward, calling himself “barro” (mere mud) and asking for no mercy. He sees his missteps—his clumsy way of living, his failure to keep pace with his lover—as the true villains. “Ese maldito momento” becomes the instant he looked to the side and found her gone, turning a normal day into a lifetime lesson about valuing what you have before it slips away. The result is a bittersweet anthem that blends rock energy with a very human plea: learn from my mistake, appreciate love while it is still yours to hold.
