LEJOS Lyrics – STRANGEHUMAN

Meaning of ‘LEJOS’ Lyrics Explained

Parte I Meaning:
Verso Meaning:
Here the singer is looking back at the breakup with a mix of shock and sadness. He can’t believe they’re no longer together and feels confused about who’s really at fault. He admits he can’t hate her because he once imagined a future together. He even apologizes to her family because he knows he caused pain. He describes himself desperately checking his phone, waiting for a reply that never came, but at least expressing his feelings helped him release some emotional weight. Even though it hurts, he truly believes that stepping away from him might help her grow and succeed. He also points out that their bond went deeper than something physical, which makes the loss even heavier. He wants her to pay attention if she ever hears his words because he thinks their happy ending belongs somewhere else, not in this relationship. At the end, he talks about taking a one-way trip together, suggesting a desire to escape reality, even though there’s no turning back.

Pre-Estribillo Meaning:
He wishes they could relive their old moments and travel back in time to hold each other again. Deep down, he’s still hopeful she might change and things could be different.

Estribillo Meaning:
The repeated word shows how distant everything feels now, both emotionally and physically, as if the only thing left between them is space.

Parte II Meaning:
Refran Meaning:
He describes how her scent still feels present, almost like it enters the room and distracts him. The sunlight makes it harder to focus, and the pain of losing her remains strong. Part of him wants to erase every trace of her so he can stop hurting, yet another part waits for her at the top of the world, hoping she might come back even though he knows it’s unlikely.

Outro Meaning:
The repeated phrase shows how strongly he’s waiting for her, almost obsessively, as if saying it over and over might bring her closer again. Even though he tries to let go, his mind keeps circling back to the same hope: that she will return someday. The word “lejos” appearing with those repeated lines highlights the contrast between his longing and the reality that they’re far apart. It paints a picture of someone stuck in an emotional loop, replaying the same wish, unable to fully move on. Each repetition feels like a mixture of love, desperation, and denial. He tries to convince himself that he’s waiting somewhere high up, almost like a place beyond everyday life, hoping she’ll reach him. But the distance keeps echoing, reminding him that what he wants and what he has are two different things.
