Terriblemente Cruel is Leiva’s wry confession about a love affair that feeds on extremes.
From the very first lines, the singer admits that calm habits like meditation are failing, and instead he is spiraling with vértigos and reckless honesty. He knows he can be "terriblemente cruel"—hurting his partner just enough to keep the spark alive—yet he also promises to be "terriblemente fiel" once the adrenaline fades. The lyrics move through moments of self-doubt, bruised egos, and cinematic drama, painting a portrait of a relationship that thrives on tension and contradiction. In short, it is a rock-tinged reminder that passion can be messy, thrilling, and universally painful all at once.
