Prefiero Estar Sola
Carolina Lao Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ya no quiero esta vida
Me cansú de convivir con tus mentiras
Ya no soy feliz
No sé como acabaré
Ya sabré acostumbrarme
Si llegue hasta aquí de pie
Prefiero estar sola, mordiendo mis ganas
Que contar las horas mientras tú me engañas
Prefiero el recuerdo de aquel primer beso
Que al que como judas, me das cuando duermo
Prefiero estar sola
Ya no puedo reponer la confianza perdida
A tal punto ya llegue
Que no hay salida, me liberaré
No sé si voy a sentir
Lo que sentía en tus brazos
Sé que voy a sufrir
Pero aún asi, prefiero estar sola
In Carolina Laó's song "Prefiero Estar Sola," the lyrics express a strong desire for independence and a lack of fulfilment in a relationship that is filled with lies and betrayal. The singer acknowledges that the end is near and she no longer wants this kind of life. She is tired of living with the constant deception and no longer finds happiness in the relationship.
Uncertain of how things will end, the singer realizes that she needs to adapt and learn to be comfortable on her own. Despite having made it this far standing strong, she is willing to take a risk and leave the relationship behind. She prefers to be alone, dealing with her desires and longings on her own terms, rather than counting the hours while being deceived by her partner. The memories of their first kiss hold more value to her than the false intimacy he offers her in their shared moments, which resembles the betrayal of Judas.
The lyrics also reveal the difficulty in rebuilding lost trust and indicate that the singer has reached a point of no return. She knows that there might be pain and suffering ahead, but even so, she prefers to be alone rather than continuing in a relationship without fulfillment. The song captures the emotions of someone who has finally found the strength to let go and prioritize their own well-being over a toxic relationship.
