Cobarde

Angela Leiva's song 'Cobarde' is a poignant portrayal of betrayal and emotional pain caused by a deceitful partner. The title itself, which translates to 'Coward' in English, sets the tone for the song's narrative. Leiva's lyrics express the deep hurt she feels from being lied to and cheated on. The repetition of the word 'cobarde' emphasizes her disdain for the partner's cowardly actions, highlighting the lack of courage to be truthful and faithful.

The song delves into the personal sacrifice and commitment Leiva made for the relationship, mentioning how she gave her family and was willing to give her life for her partner. This amplifies the sense of betrayal, as her significant emotional investment was met with mockery and infidelity. The reference to the partner's affair with 'esa maldita zorra' (that damn whore) adds a layer of anger and betrayal to the song, painting a picture of a relationship marred by deception.

The chorus of the song revolves around the theme of lies. Leiva calls out the empty promises of love and affection, labeling them as 'mentiras' (lies). The repetition of this accusation suggests a pattern of deceit that she has endured. The song's narrative is one of realization and empowerment, as she declares that her partner does not deserve her tears and acknowledges the partner's true, unchanging nature. 'Cobarde' is a powerful anthem for anyone who has experienced the pain of being let down by someone they loved deeply.
