Más

In 'Más,' Juanes delves into the complexities of longing and emotional dependency within a relationship. The song captures the essence of feeling incomplete and yearning for more from a partner who seems emotionally distant. The lyrics, 'El tiempo pasa y yo paso el tiempo / Discutiendo con la soledad,' set the tone for a narrative where time is spent in solitude, battling an internal struggle. This line highlights the emotional void and the sense of isolation that the protagonist feels, emphasizing the depth of his emotional turmoil.

The recurring theme of wanting 'más' (more) is a powerful metaphor for the insatiable desire for emotional fulfillment. Juanes sings, 'Cuando yo quiero más / Me dejas con ganas de más,' expressing the frustration of unreciprocated feelings. This sentiment is further amplified by the lines, 'Te vas y me dejas así / Sin vivir / Sin morir,' which poetically describe a state of limbo, where the protagonist feels neither fully alive nor dead without the presence of his beloved. The use of 'invisible' and 'irreconocible' (unrecognizable) underscores the loss of identity and self-worth when separated from the partner.

The song also explores the confusion and desperation that come with trying to understand the partner's behavior. The repeated plea, 'Dime por qué eres así,' reflects a deep need for clarity and communication. The contrast between 'Para ti un beso es el fin / Para mí solo el comienzo' illustrates the differing perspectives within the relationship, where a simple gesture holds vastly different meanings for each person. This dichotomy adds to the emotional complexity, making the protagonist's longing even more poignant.

'Más' is a poignant exploration of the emotional highs and lows that come with love and longing. Juanes masterfully uses metaphors and vivid imagery to convey the depth of his feelings, making the song relatable to anyone who has experienced the pain of unfulfilled desires in a relationship.
