Por ti

In 'Por ti,' Timbiriche delves into the raw emotions of heartbreak and disillusionment. The song's lyrics reveal a deep sense of betrayal and realization that the love once cherished was not reciprocated. The opening lines, 'Hasta hoy me di cuenta que lo que soy no te importa ya,' set the tone for the song, highlighting the moment of painful clarity when the singer understands that their partner no longer cares about them. This realization is further emphasized with the repetition of '¡No te importa ya!' which underscores the emotional weight of this discovery.

The chorus, 'El amor, sólo fue ilusión / Este amor, todo destruyó,' reflects the singer's disillusionment with love itself. They come to see their love as an illusion, something that ultimately led to destruction rather than fulfillment. The use of the word 'ilusión' suggests that the love was never real or substantial, adding to the sense of betrayal. The repetition of 'por ti' at the end of the verses serves as a poignant reminder of the person who caused this emotional turmoil.

The song also touches on the theme of losing oneself in love. Lines like 'yo enloquecí, la razón perdí' convey the extent to which the singer lost their sense of self and rationality in their pursuit of love. This loss is not just emotional but also mental, indicating a profound impact on the singer's well-being. The finality of the relationship is captured in the lines 'Nunca más contigo soñaré / Es el fin, de ti me olvidaré,' where the singer resolves to move on and forget their former lover, marking the end of a painful chapter in their life.
