Duele
Soraya Arnelas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
del esfuerzo siento que algo no camina.
Mas ya no aguanto mas,
el silencio que has dibujado en mi vida.
Sé que no volveré
roto el vaso ya no tendré que volver.
Respirar, quiero respirar
tus abrazos ya no me confunden ya.
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como un huracan de arena que me entierra
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como una condena a muerte
que me hace ser mas fuerte.
Vas un paso por detras
no me grites eso no va conmigo.
Yo, esta vez soy yo
quien decide quien cruzara mi camino
Sé no me engañaré
roto el lazo que me enterraba a tus pies
despertar, voy a despertar;
tus maltratos no me hacen daño ya.
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como un huracan de arena que me entierra,
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como una tortura eterna, asi duele
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como una locura ciega, que me enreda.
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como una condena a muerte
que me hace ser mas fuerte.
Respirar, quiero respirar
tus abrazos no me confunden ya.
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como un huracan de arena que me entierra,
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como una tortura eterna, asi duele
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como una locura ciega, que me enreda.
Duele sin ti, duele contigo
Como una condena a muerte
que me hace ser mas fuerte.
The lyrics of Soraya Arnelas's song "Duele" speak about a painful relationship that has come to an end. The singer is finally able to breathe and feel a sense of relief after ending a relationship that was not serving her well. She recognizes that her ex-partner was holding her back and causing her immense pain. The lyrics convey a sense of strength and empowerment as the singer takes control of her life and decides to move on.
The chorus repeats the phrase "duele sin ti, duele contigo" (it hurts without you, it hurts with you), highlighting the conflicting emotions that the singer feels about the breakup. While she knows that being with her ex-partner brings pain and misery, she still feels the pain of being without them, like a hurricane burying her in sand. However, she also acknowledges that this pain makes her stronger, like a death sentence that gives her newfound strength.
The overall message of the song is one of growth and strength. The singer realizes that she is better off without her ex-partner, and she is determined to move on and find happiness on her own terms.
