Directo Al Corazon
Control Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Acaba de una vez con esta historia
A puntéame directo al corazón
Dispara fríamente a quema ropa
Te juro que me haces un favor

Después de ti no existe nada nuevo
Si todo cuanto tuve te lo di
Queriendo con tú amor tocar el cielo

Resulta que el infierno me gane

Y sólo porque tú
Me cambiaste por unas monedas
Y sólo porque tú
No supiste soportar mi pobreza

Y sólo porque tú
Te vendiste por unas monedas
Y sólo porque tú
No supiste soportar mi pobreza
(Uo)

Pensándolo mejor, porque morirme
Realmente cuanto puedes merecer
Si tú te mueves sólo por dinero
Quizás mañana vuelvas otra vez

Y sólo porque tú
Me cambiaste por unas monedas
Y sólo porque tú
No supiste soportar mi pobreza

Y sólo porque tú
Te vendiste por unas monedas
Y sólo porque tú

No supiste soportar mi pobreza
Y sólo porque tú

Overall Meaning

In "Directo Al Corazon," Control's lyrics are a plea to an ex-lover to put an end to their story definitively. The singer begs to be shot straight through the heart, coldly and without hesitation, as it would be a favor compared to the torment and misery of carrying on with the relationship. The chorus repeats the sentiment that the ex-lover left for money and could not withstand the singer's poverty. However, the verse also recognizes that there is nothing new after the ex-lover and that by wanting to touch the sky with their love, they only ended up in the abyss.

The lyrics express a complex mix of self-loathing, grief, and anger at the ex-lover. The singer acknowledges that they gave everything to the relationship, only to be ignored and tossed aside. By asking to be shot directly in the heart, the singer is willing to die and take away the ex-lover's guilt. Perhaps even worse than the betrayal is the realization that there was nothing the singer could do to change the other's mind. In that sense, the plea for a final "directo al corazón" carries the hope that the ex-lover will finally hear and understand.
