here

There is nothing that gives me more solitude

than your company

There is no greater distance between the eyes

that when you get close

I don't want us to start over

with your being online before

If there's something you have to tell me

I want you to say it

to get used to your life

I wore the costume you wanted

Stop doing the things you dreamed of and don't

It served nothing at all

The Sun

are eliminated

About that

no no no no

and be by your side

8 hours

because it's easy

It looks like it's impossible for me

and be able to conform

and everything I have I gave him

What else can I give?

Respond to the caress before a word

a smile

I don't know why you tell me we had

if you don't prove anything at all

So you're going to do if my government

Who will give you what they tell you Look who

You are what you think you will find

But it's like this

and one day you will come back

and that day is not too late

and there you will see the reality

though it's only where your beds

I'm going to leave behind what I lived

if there was something to learn and something

Learned

the basis of which it is

and you prefer songs

But no

The forces of the sun

tomorrow

And here

arrimas — you get close

Arrimas comes from the verb arrimar, which means 'to bring closer' or 'to lean against'. While it can be a common verb, its use here is particularly poignant and creates a strong image.

In the lyrics, "No hay mayor distancia entre los ojos que cuando te arrimas," the singer expresses a deep sense of emotional disconnect. Even when the person physically 'gets close' (te arrimas), the emotional distance remains vast, highlighting the irony and pain of the relationship. This unexpected contrast makes the word stand out.

Have you ever felt more alone with someone than by yourself? Pimpinela's "Prefiero Estar Sola" [I Prefer To Be Alone] is all about that feeling! The singer is completely over a relationship where her partner's presence feels emptier than being truly alone. She sings, "no hay nada que me dé más soledad que tu compañía" [there is nothing that gives me more loneliness than your company], which is such a powerful and relatable line.

She talks about how she changed herself for him, saying, "me puse el disfraz que tú querías" [I put on the disguise you wanted] and "deje de hacer las cosas que soñaba" [I stopped doing the things I dreamed of]. But it was all for nothing! Now, she's ready to move on, even telling him, "voy a dejar atrás lo que viví" [I'm going to leave behind what I lived]. It's a really strong message about choosing yourself and finding peace in being single rather than staying in a relationship that makes you feel invisible.
