Verse 1

I run out of arguments

And the methodology

Every time that it appears

In front of me your anatomy

Because this love doesn't understand anymore

Advice nor reasoning

It feeds on excuses

And it lacks courage

Lit: And it's missing pants

Prochorus 1

This love doesn't allow me to stay standing

Because it has even broken my heels

And even if I get up, I'll fall again

If you get close nothing is useful for this useless

If you get close nothing is useful for this useless (person / me)

Chorus 1

Stupid, blind, deaf-mute, clumsy, awkward, stubborn

It's all that I've been

Because of you I've become

In a thing that doesn't do anything more than loving you

Or: In something that does nothing other than love you

I think of you day and night

And I don't know how to forget you

Verse 2

How many times I've tried

To bury you in my memory

And even if I say no more

It's the same story again

Because this love always knows

How to make me breathe deeply

It already brings me to the left

And fighting with the world

Prechorus 2

If I could exorcise myself from your voice

If I could escape from your name

If I could tear out my heart

And hide to not feel again

Or: And hide so as not to feel again

Chorus 2

Stupid, blind, deaf-mute, clumsy, awkward, stubborn

It's all that I've been

Because of you I've become

In a thing that doesn't do anything more than loving you

I think of you day and night

And I don't know how to forget you

Verse 3

Baggy-eyed, skinny, ugly, disheveled

Clumsy, dumb, slow, foolish, deranged

Completely out of control

You realize it and don't tell me anything

You see that my head has become a nest

Where only you have asylum

And you don't listen to what I say

Look carefully at what you're going to do with me

Chorus 3

Stupid, blind, deaf-mute, clumsy, awkward, stubborn

It's all that I've been

Because of you I've become

In a thing that doesn't do anything more than loving you

I think of you day and night

And I don't know how to forget you

Chorus 4

Stupid, blind, deaf-mute, clumsy, awkward, stubborn

It's all that I've been

Because of you I've become

In a thing that doesn't do anything more than loving you

I think of you day and night

And I don't know how to forget you

Stupid, blind, deaf-mute, clumsy, awkward, stubborn

It's all that I've been

Because of you I've become

In a thing that doesn't do anything more than loving you

I think of you day and night

And I don't know how to forget you

Stupid, blind, deaf-mute

SONG MEANING

Ciega, Sordomuda is Shakira’s fiery confession of being helplessly, almost comically, in love. With her trademark mix of wit and vulnerability, the Colombian superstar lists a whirlwind of flaws—“bruta, ciega, sordomuda” (foolish, blind, and mute)—to show how love can strip us of logic, pride, and even common sense. Each verse piles on vivid images of obsession: broken heels from running back, sleepless nights filled with a single name, and a mind that has become a one-person sanctuary. The pounding pop-rock beat mirrors the rush of emotions, while the playful wordplay lets listeners laugh at the drama they secretly know too well.

At its heart, the song is a humorous take on the universal struggle between head and heart. Reason offers advice, but passion refuses to listen, feeding on flimsy excuses and dragging the singer into the same romantic loop again and again. Shakira’s exaggerated self-portraits—dark-eyed, skinny, disheveled—celebrate how messy love can be, yet her voice bursts with empowerment, turning personal chaos into an anthem for anyone who has ever felt ridiculous for loving too much.
