¿Por Que Una Guía No Hay?

The song '¿Por Que Una Guía No Hay?' by FNFHS delves into the complexities and uncertainties of life, emphasizing the lack of clear guidance or a manual to navigate through it. The lyrics, sung by both Girlfriend and Boyfriend, reflect a shared sentiment of confusion and the desire for direction. The opening lines, 'Left, right / Up, down / That's how you do it,' set the stage for the metaphor of life as a series of directional choices, each with its own set of consequences.

The song poignantly captures the frustration of not having a clear path, as expressed in the lines, 'La vida es complicada / Eso lo sabes muy bien / No hay indicaciones / Que dicten que hay que hacer.' This translates to 'Life is complicated / You know that very well / There are no instructions / That dictate what to do.' The artists question why there isn't a guide to make life easier, highlighting the anxiety that comes with making decisions without knowing the outcomes. The repeated questioning, '¿Por qué una guía no hay?' ('Why isn't there a guide?'), underscores this existential dilemma.

As the song progresses, it touches on the fear of judgment and the pressure of making the right choices. The lines, 'No hay un manual / Ya para esta situación / Una mala decisión / Te juzgan sin más compasión,' meaning 'There is no manual / For this situation / A bad decision / They judge you without compassion,' reflect the harsh reality of societal expectations. Despite these challenges, the song finds solace in companionship and music, as expressed in the closing lines, 'Hoy cantando a tu lado encuentro la tranquilidad / La que jamás sentí en mi vida, es la verdad,' which translates to 'Today singing by your side I find tranquility / The one I never felt in my life, it's the truth.' This suggests that while life may lack a clear guide, finding comfort in shared experiences and creative expression can provide a sense of direction and peace.
