Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
si ya no te sigo besando
no es que no te quiera
si ya no te sigo besando
la cruz no pesa
lo que calan son los hilos
cariño santo cariño santo
aunque me grites aunque me grites
que ya me estas acabando
las balas perdidas
pegaron siempre en mi pecho
las balas perdidas
pegaron siempre en mi pecho
pero tus besos
me inyectaron nueva vida
bala perdida bala perdida
quien haya el mauser
que te ha tronado que te ha tronado
para acabar para acabar para acabar
con mi vida
cuatro despedidas
las tengo
para ti escritas
cuatro despedidas
las tengo
para ti escritas
hay te las dejo pa que llores
cuando te digan
bala perdida bala perdida
ya mano estamos
y aqui murio y aqui murio
adios adios, adios adios
que tenga suerte en la vida
The song "Bala Perdida" by Miguel Y Miguel is about a man who has been deeply hurt by his lover. The lyrics express his conflicted feelings towards her. He starts off by saying that he still loves her, but he is no longer kissing her. He is trying to distance himself from her because he is hurting. He then goes on to say that the cross he bears is not as heavy as the weight of their relationship. He believes that her love is sacred, but he will not leave her even if she yells at him because she is already killing him emotionally.
The chorus of the song talks about how the man has been shot with bullets that have always hit his heart. These bullets are metaphorical, representing the pain he feels from his lover's actions. But despite all of this, he says that her kisses have been the only thing that makes him feel alive. He then challenges the person who is responsible for hurting him to finish him off.
In the final verse, the man has written four goodbye letters for his lover, and he leaves them for her with the message that he hopes she cries when she hears the news of his death. He then bids her farewell, wishing her luck in life. Overall, the song expresses the pain of a man who is deeply hurt by his lover but still cannot bring himself to leave her.

And here I die, here I die
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Wishing you luck in life
