The song begins with the protagonist expressing his eagerness and excitement to see someone he deeply cares about. This initial joy quickly transitions into a narrative of frustration and heartache as he recalls a moment at school when he confessed his feelings, only to be met with indifference. The line 'Creo que nunca debi haberte dicho' (I think I should never have told you) encapsulates his regret and the realization that his love might have been a mistake.
The song continues to explore the protagonist's futile attempts to win over the object of his affection. He tries to express his love through letters and songs, hoping to capture her heart. However, he soon understands that his efforts are in vain, as she remains indifferent. The lyrics 'Que te veo y no te puedo tocar y / Que me gustes y / Que a ti te de igual' (That I see you and can't touch you / That I like you and / That you don't care) poignantly highlight the pain of loving someone who doesn't reciprocate those feelings.

The closing lines 'Hice todo lo que pude y si no funciona / Es mejor olvidar' (I did everything I could and if it doesn't work / It's better to forget) signify his resolution to move on, despite the lingering pain. 'A.R.P.G.' captures the essence of youthful love and the harsh reality of unreciprocated emotions, resonating with anyone who has experienced the sting of unreturned affection.
