QUE HAGO Lyrics (English Translation) – La Pantera

QUE HAGO (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The singer starts by expressing disappointment and confusion. They thought their relationship was different and special, but now it’s over, and they don’t know what to do. The breakup changed them, but not in a good way. Pride, which once held their love together, is now gone. They turn to drinking (Don Julio tequila) to cope with the pain. The final line reveals a heartbreaking moment—they just found out their ex has moved on with someone new, making the pain even worse.

[Chorus]
The singer admits they are drinking again because of their ex, unable to move on. They had to face heartbreak the hard way, and now they feel empty and lost. Their motivation and excitement for life have faded, and they feel like their wings have been clipped, unable to fly. This time, they are the one left hurt after years of love. They question how to move forward and wonder if they are just lying to themselves to feel better.

[Verse 1]
The singer expresses how painful it is to realize their ex knew everything before they did—maybe about the breakup or their new relationship. They reminisce about how close they once were, with their ex even wearing their merchandise before it was officially released. But now, they can’t even look at each other. The singer feels betrayed, while their ex avoids them because they have moved on. The heartbreak makes them lose faith in love and relationships in today’s world. They describe how even simple acts like kissing or hugging don’t feel the same anymore—they only bring pain. The singer refers to themselves as “Benito,” possibly comparing their love story to a famous, unforgettable romance. They also mention coming from a tough place where love always seems impossible, hinting at struggles beyond just their relationship.

[Bridge]
The singer accepts that their relationship was always going to end badly, but it still hurts. They feel like even fate or higher powers aren’t on their side. They used to pray or seek comfort, but now, they don’t even talk to God before sleeping. Instead of healing, they have simply gotten used to the pain and sadness, making it a part of their life.

[Pre-Chorus]
The breakup has completely broken their pride, and they drown their sorrows in alcohol. They see proof that their ex has officially moved on with someone else, confirming their worst fears. This realization only deepens their heartbreak, leaving them feeling even more lost and hopeless.

[Chorus]
The singer repeats their pain, saying they are drinking again because of their ex. They learned their lesson in the hardest way possible—by getting hurt. Their passion and motivation are gone, and they feel stuck. They acknowledge that this time, they are the one who got left behind. After all the love and time they shared, they still don’t know how to move forward, questioning if they are just fooling themselves into thinking they will be okay.

[Verse 2]
The singer uses a metaphor, saying their “boat’s sail sank,” meaning their relationship completely fell apart. They tried to distract themselves with material things like luxury items (leather and chains), but nothing worked. They come home feeling empty—no money, no love, and the same old problems. Their bed is cold and lonely, and they are exhausted, both physically and emotionally. They listen to a song that reminds them of their past, making them wonder if their ex ever thought about their love the same way. Remembering their first date only brings more pain, so they turn to drinking again to escape the sadness.

[Chorus]
The pain repeats itself, and the singer is drinking again to numb it. They feel stuck, unable to move forward. The heartbreak has drained their energy and motivation. Once again, they are the one who got hurt, despite all the love they shared. They don’t know how to continue or if they are just lying to themselves about ever getting better.

[Outro]
The ex knew everything before they did, leaving the singer feeling blindsided and betrayed.
