Todas Mienten

Nelcar Barón's song 'Todas Mienten' delves into the emotional turmoil and disillusionment that follows a painful breakup. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who once viewed his relationship through rose-colored glasses, only to be blindsided by deceit and betrayal. The initial verses reflect on the protagonist's idealization of his partner, whom he once considered a goddess. This idealization is shattered as he realizes that the love he believed in was built on lies, leading to a profound sense of loss and betrayal.

The chorus, with its repetitive assertion that 'todas mienten' (all lie), underscores the protagonist's growing cynicism towards love. He declares that he no longer believes in love, viewing it as something transient and ultimately destructive. This sentiment is reinforced by the memories of the good times they shared, which are now tainted by the realization of his partner's infidelity. The repetition of the phrase 'todas mienten' serves as a cathartic release of his frustration and heartbreak.

As the song progresses, the protagonist reflects on the passage of time since the breakup. He recalls the initial tenderness and affection of his partner, which has since been replaced by a more dangerous and deceitful persona. The lyrics suggest a broader commentary on relationships, portraying women as 'serpientes venenosas' (venomous snakes) who seduce with false promises. This metaphor highlights the protagonist's deep-seated mistrust and the emotional scars left by his past relationship. The song concludes with a reaffirmation of his disillusionment, emphasizing that he no longer values the lies and deceit that once broke his heart.
