Decías

Amaranta's song 'Decías' is a poignant portrayal of betrayal and the pain of discovering that a loved one's affections were not genuine. The lyrics are straightforward and repetitive, emphasizing the deep sense of hurt and disbelief the singer feels upon realizing the truth. The song's title, 'Decías,' which translates to 'You Said,' sets the stage for a series of broken promises that form the core of the song's narrative.

The repetition of the lines 'Decías que tú me querías / Pero mentías todo era falso' and 'Jurabas que tú me amabas / Mentira todo era falso' drives home the central theme of the song: the stark contrast between what was said and what was true. The use of the words 'querías' (you loved) and 'amabas' (you loved) suggests a deep emotional connection that was purportedly shared, while 'mentiras' (lies) and 'falso' (false) shatter that illusion. The singer reflects on the performative aspects of the relationship, where expressions of love, such as kisses and tears, were mere acts of deceit.

The song concludes with a forewarning of regret, suggesting that the deceiver will eventually remember the genuine affection they were given and will mourn their actions for a lifetime. This serves as a poignant reminder of the lasting impact of dishonesty in relationships. The emotional weight of the song is likely to resonate with listeners who have experienced similar heartbreak, making 'Decías' a relatable anthem for those coping with the aftermath of a love built on lies.
