Mentirás (feat. Ir Sais)

Ana Mena's song 'Mentirás,' featuring Ir Sais, delves into the complex emotions and tangled web of a clandestine relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a night filled with longing and temptation, where the protagonist is irresistibly drawn to someone who is already in a committed relationship. The opening lines set the scene with a beautiful night and the intoxicating scent of 'dolce,' symbolizing the allure and sweetness of the forbidden encounter. The protagonist's desire is palpable as they imagine their lips tracing the other's skin, hinting at the physical and emotional intimacy they crave.

The chorus reveals the central theme of the song: deception. The protagonist knows that their lover is hiding their true feelings and intentions, returning to their bed night after night despite promises to stay away. This cycle of lies and repeated encounters underscores the addictive nature of their relationship. The lyrics 'Me juraste que no volverías a verme, pero mientes, somos unos reincidentes' (You swore you wouldn't see me again, but you lie, we are repeat offenders) highlight the inevitability of their reunion, driven by an undeniable attraction that neither can resist.

Ir Sais's verse adds another layer to the narrative, suggesting a carefree and relaxed approach to their secret meetings. The mention of 'un porrito y un mojito' (a joint and a mojito) implies a desire to escape reality and indulge in the moment. The song's bridge and final chorus reiterate the theme of deception, with the protagonist acknowledging that their lover will continue to lie and return to them. The repeated phrase 'Tú te vas y al llamarla pronuncias mi nombre' (You leave and when you call her, you say my name) emphasizes the deep emotional connection and the lingering presence of the protagonist in their lover's mind, even when they are with someone else.
