Todo Mal

Moderatto's song 'Todo Mal' delves into the poignant aftermath of a failed relationship, capturing the essence of lost love and unfulfilled promises. The lyrics are a series of reflective questions, pondering where the remnants of their love have gone. The repeated inquiries about the destination of steps, kisses, and silence symbolize the confusion and longing that often accompany a breakup. The singer is left grappling with the void left by their partner, questioning the reality of their past together and the sincerity of their partner's intentions.

The chorus brings the listener to a moment of confrontation, where the former lovers meet again. This encounter is laden with the weight of broken promises and missed opportunities. The line 'Pensando en el camino que pudimos tomar' (Thinking about the path we could have taken) highlights the regret and what-ifs that haunt the singer. Despite the potential paths their relationship could have taken, the conclusion is stark: 'Pero al final contigo todo mal' (But in the end, with you, everything went wrong). This refrain underscores the ultimate failure and disappointment of their union.

The song also touches on the theme of memory and the passage of time. The singer wonders where their memories will rest and if there is an end to their pain, given that time seems to have lost its meaning. The imagery of the moon and the years they dreamed together evokes a sense of nostalgia and lost dreams. 'Todo Mal' is a powerful exploration of the emotional turmoil that follows a breakup, filled with introspection and a sense of irrevocable loss.
