SUBASTA (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
This sets the mood, hinting at a smooth and melodic vibe.

[Chorus]
The chorus reveals the emotional conflict at the heart of the song. The guy acknowledges that when the girl tells him she loves him, he struggles to believe it—not necessarily because he thinks she’s lying, but because he feels emotionally unavailable. He doesn’t make excuses or try to justify his feelings; he just knows he can’t love her the way she wants. However, he still keeps her close, letting her call him whenever she wants. He also emphasizes how special she is—other men would do anything to have her, almost like she’s the prize in an auction. But despite her desirability, he believes no one else can match what he offers. The chorus repeats, reinforcing the idea that while he might not be able to love her fully, he’s still deeply connected to her in his own way.

[Verse 1]
Here, he admits that even though he can’t love her, he can’t stop thinking about her. He knows he gets caught up in the moment, sometimes acting impulsively. He describes their dynamic—he’s about excitement and passion, not emotional drama. She seems to enjoy a break from their intense connection by distracting herself with Netflix, but ultimately, they always come back together. Their relationship is fiery and unpredictable, with moments of passion like being together on a balcony. There’s also a sense of distance—she leaves without explanation but returns just as suddenly. He describes her as cold and unapologetic, someone who does what she wants without regret. But despite all this, their physical connection is strong, and he sees himself as someone who exists to please her, even if he can’t give her love.

[Chorus]
This section repeats the earlier chorus, once again highlighting his internal conflict. He can’t love her, but he still keeps her around. He knows she’s desirable, but he believes no one else can compare to him in what he offers.

[Verse 2]
In this verse, he admits to being emotionally distant and apologizes for it, though it’s clear he doesn’t plan on changing. The girl got tired of keeping their relationship a secret, which suggests there was a time when things were more private or complicated. He shows he knows her well—mentioning luxury brands like Versace and Valentino, proving he understands her tastes. He reminisces about their passion, using a metaphor about bouncing like a bad check. He also hints that he stays updated on her through a friend, showing he still keeps tabs on her life. Their physical connection is intense, and she doesn’t hold back when the camera is on, suggesting a playful and uninhibited relationship.

[Chorus]
Once again, the chorus repeats, reinforcing the song’s central theme. He can’t fully commit, but he won’t let her go either. Other men would do anything for her, but he sees himself as the one who values her the most. There’s an ongoing battle between his emotions and his actions—he doubts love, yet he stays close. The repetition emphasizes this internal tug-of-war, leaving the listener feeling the same unresolved tension that defines their relationship.
