No Debí Conocerte

Proyecto Santhia's song "No Debí Conocerte" delves into the deep emotional turmoil of regret and unfulfilled love. The lyrics express a poignant narrative of a person who is suffering, not because of the loss of a romantic relationship, but due to the separation from their child. The opening lines make it clear that the source of the pain is not the former partner but the distance from their child, highlighting the profound impact of this separation on the individual's emotional state.

The song reflects on the irreversible nature of time and the futility of lamenting past decisions. The singer wishes they could turn back time to avoid the pain they are currently experiencing. This sentiment is encapsulated in the lines, "Si pudiera regresar el tiempo / Jamás daría parte de mi vida," which translate to a longing for a different past where they wouldn't have given a part of their life to someone who caused them such heartache. The regret is palpable, and the realization that they must live with the consequences of their choices adds a layer of melancholy to the song.

A significant theme in the song is the unfairness of involving an innocent child in the complexities of adult relationships. The lyrics, "Cómo duele poner en juego / A un ser que no tiene la culpa de nada," underscore the guilt and sorrow of the singer for the unintended impact on their child. The song also challenges the stereotype that only women can love deeply, asserting that men too experience profound emotional pain. The closing lines, "Sufrir llorar es parte de la vida / Bailar gozar para olvidar," suggest a bittersweet acceptance of life's hardships and the need to find moments of joy to cope with the pain.
