No, I didn't see it coming

I thought I was a specialist and I was just an apprentice

Of what life is

Today, I already know what to choose

I've hit rock bottom and it's my turn to get out

With every fall, I own the wound

You, that want to defeat me

You look me in the face, and the strong one is me

Relax, that the best is coming

After the blackout

On-off, again

This adrenaline reaches my bones

There's a revolution in my body

The protagonist doesn't swallow the story

Whoever says that at night you can't shine

Knows na-na-nothing, they'll see me dance

Because nobody, nobody

Nobody will make me cry again

After the blackout

And if I want to be alone

I fill the glass by myself

And to shut more mouths

I don't know what I'm gonna do

This engine won't cool down

Up all day

All day

You, that want to defeat me

You look me in the face, and the strong one is me

Relax, that the best is coming

After the blackout

On-off, again

This adrenaline reaches my bones

There's a revolution in my body

The protagonist doesn't swallow the story

Whoever says that at night you can't shine

Knows na-na-nothing, they'll see me dance

Because nobody, nobody

Nobody will make me cry again

After the blackout

On-off, again

This adrenaline reaches my bones

There's a revolution in my body

The protagonist doesn't swallow the story

After the blackout

SONG MEANING

Power cut? More like a power surge! “El Apagón” is Melody’s sparkling manifesto of resilience. The song opens in complete darkness—both literal and emotional—as she admits she “didn’t see it coming” and hit rock bottom. Yet the blackout flips her inner switch on. With pulsing “on-off” imagery and adrenaline “up to the bone,” Melody turns the lights back on herself, declaring that she is the strong one, the protagonist who refuses to swallow anyone else’s story.

From that first flicker of self-realization, the track erupts into a celebration of autonomy: filling her own glass, dancing through the night, and daring critics to watch her shine. Each beat shouts a clear message—nobody will make me cry again. In short, “El Apagón” transforms a moment of darkness into a neon-bright anthem of personal revolution, reminding us that sometimes you have to lose the power to discover your own limitless energy.
