Sale Para Ser Feliz (English Translation) Lyrics By Ivan Cornejo

[Verse 1]
She goes out to be happy, she goes out to smile
She goes out and just gets hurt, but I understand her because I've been there
She's not the same one I knew, and when I saw her from afar
Losing herself the night she swore she wouldn't repeat

[Chorus]
She paints her lips pink
Black dress and inside her cry
I had your hair between my hands
You changed it, oh, how much you've changed!
And look at you, I don't even know you anymore
And look at you, I can't even see your face anymore
And the woman I loved so much
Where did she go?

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 2]
She goes out to be happy, and she goes out just to say
That everything is fine when you know it's not
And tattooed on your skin what never happened
I know that they don't see in you what I can see
She goes out to be happy, and she goes out just to feel
That you have fun for a moment, but the wind takes it away
That it takes you to me is a matter of time
No need to lie when I know it's true

[Verso 1]
In the first verse, the song introduces the central character who goes out to find happiness and smile but ends up hurting themselves. This reflects a common struggle of trying to mask pain with social activities. The narrator understands this because they have experienced similar feelings. The character is no longer the same person they once knew, and seeing them from a distance reveals how they've changed and are lost in a cycle they swore to break.

[Coro]
The chorus highlights the poignant transformation of the character, symbolized by the pink lipstick and black dress, juxtaposed with their internal sadness. The narrator reminisces about holding their hair, which has now changed, signifying the person's overall transformation. This stark change makes the narrator feel like they no longer recognize the person they once deeply loved, questioning where that person has gone.

[Interludio Instrumental]
The instrumental break allows the listener to absorb the emotional weight of the lyrics, emphasizing the theme of change and loss without the distraction of words.

[Verso 2]
The second verse continues to explore the character's attempts to find happiness by pretending everything is fine, despite knowing it's not true. Their tattoos represent unfulfilled promises and dreams. The narrator sees something in the character that others cannot, hinting at a deep, personal connection. They believe that it's only a matter of time before the character finds their way back, suggesting a hope for reconciliation and honesty.

[Coro]
Reiterating the chorus, the song emphasizes the contrast between the character's outward appearance and their inner sorrow. The repetition reinforces the themes of change and loss, underlining the narrator's sense of unfamiliarity and longing for the person they once knew."
