El Mundo Lyrics in English Pablo López

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Mundo by Pablo López from Spanish to English.
They made us small
We dreamed ourselves giants
Poor giants
So big that we forgot the world
The world has broken, the world explodes
And it can seem that I am crazy
I only want that you stay in my bed
The world kills, the world dies
And I wouldn't want to turn my back on it
Nor beg it that it wait for me
And if tomorrow nothing's left but an angel
And if tomorrow we're only air
And if tomorrow they find us tangled up
That they let us rest, from the world like this
The world jumps out the window
And I'm biting the red of your face
Dodging conscience between your wings
The world ends, the world loses
And through the mouth our souls die
Playing at being innocent lovers
And if tomorrow nothing's left but an angel
And if tomorrow we're only air
And if tomorrow they find us tangled up
That they let us rest, from the world like this
If we want to end this, you have to destroy it
And if tomorrow nothing's left but an angel
And if tomorrow we're only air
And if tomorrow they find us tangled up
That they let us rest, from the world, the world
I want to escape this world like this

SONG MEANING

“El Mundo” paints a cinematic scene where the world feels like it is collapsing, yet two lovers create a tiny refuge from the chaos. Pablo López contrasts our childhood dreams of becoming gigantes with the harsh reality of a planet that “breaks and explodes.” In this turbulent backdrop, he whispers a simple wish: “Solo quiero que te quedes en mi cama” — I just want you to stay in my bed. The song reminds us that when everything outside goes haywire, love can still build a protective bubble, at least for one stolen night.

While the lyrics flirt with apocalyptic images — “el mundo salta por la ventana,” “el mundo mata” — they are also a playful invitation to ignore the end of days and get lost in someone’s arms. The repeated “¿y si mañana…?” questions underline how uncertain tomorrow is, so why not cling to the present kiss? “El Mundo” ultimately balances dread and desire, showing that passion can be both a hiding place and a small act of rebellion against a world that sometimes feels too heavy to bear.
