De Ce Ma Minti

Liviu Guta's song "De Ce Ma Minti" delves into the emotional turmoil of being deceived by a loved one. The lyrics express the anguish of the protagonist, who feels betrayed by their partner's insincere words. The repeated phrase "Spui doar vorbe-n vant" (You only speak words in the wind) highlights the emptiness and lack of truth in the partner's promises, leading to tears and heartbreak. The protagonist's disbelief and decision to stop listening to these lies underscore the depth of their pain and disillusionment.

A significant aspect of the song is the influence of the partner's family, particularly the mother, who is against the relationship. The line "Mama ta nu ma vrea, e impotriva mea" (Your mother doesn't want me, she is against me) reveals the external pressures that contribute to the relationship's strain. This familial opposition has evidently swayed the partner, causing them to change and ultimately abandon the protagonist. The sense of loss is palpable, especially when the protagonist reminisces over a photograph, a poignant reminder of happier times now gone.

The chorus, with its repeated question "De ce ma minti?" (Why do you lie to me?), captures the core of the protagonist's anguish. They are acutely aware that their partner's actions do not align with their true feelings, as the heart still desires the protagonist. This contradiction between words and emotions intensifies the sense of betrayal and confusion. The song poignantly portrays the struggle of holding onto love in the face of deceit and external pressures, making it a relatable and emotionally charged piece for anyone who has experienced similar heartache.
