Se Feliz

Lucho Nuñez's song 'Se Feliz' delves into the complex emotions of love, longing, and the struggle for personal liberation. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person caught in a tumultuous relationship, where conflicting emotions of love and resentment coexist. The opening lines reveal the protagonist's inability to hide their feelings or lie about the pain caused by their partner. This internal conflict is further highlighted by the juxtaposition of the mind wanting to hate, the mouth wanting to kiss, and the soul screaming out in agony.

The chorus, with its repeated plea to 'Se feliz' (Be happy), serves as both a personal mantra and a message to the partner. The protagonist admits to dying for their love and being unable to lie about their feelings. The phrase 'Suelta mi mente' (Free my mind) suggests a desire for mental liberation from the torment of the relationship. The repetition of 'Me hace feliz' (It makes me happy) indicates that despite the pain, there is still a yearning for happiness, either through reconciliation or personal freedom.

In the second verse, the mention of a tobacco-induced memory brings a moment of clarity. The realization that 'nothing is forever' and 'nothing will change you' underscores the inevitability of the situation. The protagonist acknowledges that everything has already been written, implying a sense of fate or destiny. The desire to 'touch and sing once more' reflects a longing for simpler, happier times. The song concludes with a reiteration of the chorus, emphasizing the ongoing struggle between love and the need for liberation, ultimately urging both parties to find happiness, whether together or apart.
