Si fuera necesario

In "Si fuera necesario," Hens delves into the emotional turmoil of a relationship on the brink of collapse. The song's protagonist is grappling with the realization that their partner is unhappy, despite the lack of explicit communication. The opening lines reveal a sense of neglect and misunderstanding, as the partner doesn't even greet them or laugh at their jokes anymore. This sets the stage for a narrative of introspection and self-doubt, where the protagonist questions their own role in the relationship's deterioration.

The chorus of the song highlights the protagonist's desperation and willingness to change in order to salvage the relationship. They express a readiness to alter their lifestyle, work schedule, and even their personal identity, symbolized by the removal of tattoos and the scent of tobacco. This reflects a deep-seated insecurity and a desire to be more like someone their partner might prefer. The repeated refrain of "si fuera necesario" (if it were necessary) underscores the lengths they are willing to go to, even if it means losing parts of themselves.

Hens captures the universal theme of unreciprocated love and the painful realization that sometimes, no matter how much one is willing to change, it might not be enough. The song's narrative is a poignant exploration of self-sacrifice and the futility of trying to mold oneself into someone else's ideal. It speaks to the heartache of knowing a relationship is ending and the internal conflict of wanting to hold on while recognizing the inevitability of letting go.
