¿Cuándo Fue?

The lyrics express a deep sense of betrayal and confusion, as the protagonist grapples with the end of a relationship that once seemed secure.

The song also touches on the struggle to move on, with the protagonist attempting to numb the pain through distractions and new experiences, as suggested by the lines referring to a new romantic interest and the use of substances like ecstasy. Despite these efforts, there's an acknowledgment of being stuck in the past, indicated by the line 'Encerrado en el pasado que nunca va a volver' ('Locked in a past that will never return'). This internal conflict between wanting to forget and being unable to let go is a central theme of the song.
