Maldita Amiga

The song "Maldita Amiga" by Supernova delves into the emotional turmoil of loving someone who is off-limits. The lyrics express the protagonist's deep affection for a person who is romantically involved with her friend. The opening lines set the scene with the protagonist admiring the object of her affection, acknowledging the perfection she sees in him and her desire to love him openly. However, she is painfully aware that her feelings must remain hidden, as he is her friend's partner.

The chorus reveals the internal conflict the protagonist faces, torn between her loyalty to her friend ("amiga") and the overwhelming love ("amor") she feels for this man. The term "maldita" (cursed or damned) emphasizes the sense of frustration and helplessness in the situation. She is caught in a love triangle, where her emotions are deemed inappropriate and her friendship is at stake. The repeated plea for the friend not to talk about him suggests the protagonist's struggle to maintain composure and the pain of hearing about the person she loves from someone else.

As the song progresses, the protagonist's longing intensifies, and she fantasizes about a future where she and her love are together, even at the cost of her friendship. The repeated lines in the chorus underscore the desperation and the raw emotion of being in love with someone she cannot have. The song ends with a sense of fading hope, as the word "Desvanece" (fades away) suggests the inevitable dissolution of her unfulfilled desires.
