Que Va a Ser

Fran Perea's song 'Que Va a Ser' delves into the painful and gradual disintegration of a romantic relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a couple who have drifted apart, filling their lives with superficialities while neglecting the core of their connection. The room is described as being filled with 'everything but everything important,' symbolizing how they have surrounded themselves with distractions to avoid confronting the real issues. The repetition of robotic phrases and the drowning memories signify the emotional distance that has grown between them.

The song captures the internal struggle of the narrator, who questions whether the disintegration is solely their fault. The poignant moment of hearing their partner cry in the middle of the night, and responding with a silent kiss, highlights the deep-seated emotional disconnect. This act of pretending not to hear the murmurs reflects a desperate attempt to maintain a semblance of normalcy, even as everything falls apart. The lyrics also touch on the transformation of once insignificant gestures into provocations, indicating how the smallest actions can become sources of tension in a strained relationship.

The chorus, with its haunting question 'Dime que va a ser de nosotros,' encapsulates the uncertainty and fear of losing each other completely. The song ends on a melancholic note, with the narrator recalling the last thing they remember saying: a mundane comment about going to work the next day. This final line underscores the tragic mundanity that has replaced the passion and intimacy they once shared. 'Que Va a Ser' is a poignant exploration of love's erosion, capturing the sorrow and helplessness that accompany the end of a relationship.
