Chorus 1
How do I tell her that no?
That I don't want to continue anymore
If she gives her life for me
How do I say that I'm leaving?
Without hurting her?
Lit: Without me going to do harm?
If she gives her life for me
Verse 1
What will become of her life the day that I walk away?
If she dreams that we're together and I never leave her
I am her life plan
I'll cause her a wound
When I know that I don't feel what I felt
I wish that she was the one who told me
That this isn't working anymore
Or: That there is nowhere for this to go anymore
Let someone new come because I'm not capable
I wish that she can understand that this isn't my fault
Or: Hopefully she can understand that the blame is not mine
And that she knows how to forgive
That when love goes, it goes and it goes
Chorus 2
How do I tell her that no?
That I don't want to continue anymore
If she gives her life for me
How do I say that I'm leaving?
Without hurting her?
If she gives her life for me
Verse 2
Mistakes come with consequences
Breaking a heart is also a crime
For what is it worth to continue just for show?
Or: What is the point of continuing just to take the appearance?
The relationship died, babe, it lost the endurance already
The temptation won, the evil separated us
Why continue fighting when there's no reason anymore?
Don't waste your time, babe, in conclusion
I prefer to be honest than break your heart
Or: I'd rather be honest than break your heart
If it hurts, I'm sorry
Or: If it's hurts you, I regret it
I don't know how to explain what I'm feeling
We ended up damaging the relationship
I was carried away by temptation
Or: I let myself get carried away by temptation
It was my mistake not to tell you in the moment
Or: It was my mistake not to tell you at the time
You locked up and I kept drinking
We lacked communication
Or: We needed communication
I'm sincere, I feel that this is over
Or: I'm honest, I feel like this is finished
Chorus 3
How do I tell her that no?
That I don't want to continue anymore
If she gives her life for me
How do I say that I'm leaving?
Without hurting her?
If she gives her life for me
For me she gives her life

delincuencia — crime / delinquency

delincuencia literally translates to "delinquency" or "crime". It's a very strong and dramatic word that you wouldn't expect to find in a song about love.

In "Amor en Coma", Manuel Turizo uses it as a powerful metaphor. He sings, "Romper un corazón también es delincuencia" (Breaking a heart is also a crime), expressing the immense guilt and moral weight he feels for hurting someone who loves him. This unexpected comparison makes the feeling of heartbreak incredibly vivid and memorable.

Ever been trapped in a relationship where your partner worships the ground you walk on, but your feelings completely dried up? That is the exact mess Colombian artist Manuel Turizo and Maluma drop into in this smooth reggaeton track. Manuel kicks things off with pure guilt, asking, "¿Cómo decirle que no? Que ya no quiero seguir / Si ella da la vida por mí" [How do I tell her no? That I don't want to keep going / If she would give her life for me]. He admits he is her entire life plan, which makes the whole breakup feel like a disaster waiting to strike. He even wishes she would pull the trigger first ("Ojalá que fuera ella la que me dijera / Que esto ya no da para más" [I wish she were the one to tell me / That this can't go on anymore]) just so he does not have to be the bad guy.

Then Maluma jumps in and cuts right through the stalling. He calls out the fake smiles with "¿De qué vale seguir solo por llevar la apariencia?" [What's the point of staying together just to keep up appearances?] before bluntly admitting he gave in to temptation while partying ("Tú encerrada y yo seguía bebiendo" [You locked up inside and I kept drinking]). He even drops the line "Romper un corazón también es delincuencia" [Breaking a heart is also a crime], which is definitely dramatic, but it gets the point across. The music moves between pure panic and cold honesty, laying out how lack of communication and lost love leave a romance on total life support.
