A Escondidas

In 'A Escondidas,' Yuri delves into the emotional turmoil of a clandestine love affair. The song opens with the singer confessing to having fallen into an abyss, a metaphor for the deep emotional entanglement she finds herself in. She describes living in a self-made inferno, battling her own feelings and acknowledging the moral conflict of having taken someone else's heart. This act of love, which turned into poison, has left a lasting mark on her, symbolizing the heavy emotional toll it has taken.

The chorus reveals the core struggle of the song: living in secrecy and loving in darkness. Yuri sings about the 'guerras perdidas' or lost battles, indicating the constant internal and external conflicts she faces. She expresses exhaustion from these battles and a desperate need to find a way out, to sleep peacefully and breathe freely. This reflects a yearning for liberation from the suffocating constraints of a love that can never be fully realized or acknowledged.

She acknowledges that the person she loves was never truly hers and that she has grown tired of filling the voids in her life with this unfulfilling relationship. The repetition of the chorus underscores her resolve to seek peace and self-worth, promising herself that she deserves more. The song concludes with a powerful declaration of her intent to no longer love in secrecy, marking a significant step towards emotional freedom and self-empowerment.
