Ya No Jalaba Lyrics in English PXNDX

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ya No Jalaba by PXNDX from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
Maybe this is the best
Because our thing didn't work
Verse 1
I spent all day thinking
that this isn't going to be the same
It had to end already
Verse 1
After all it made no sense
I didn't see you the same anymore
I let time go by
to see if someday you would notice
but that didn't happen
until one fine day came
Chorus 1
Don't ask me why
I don't want to know anymore
Chorus 1
Things change
Things change
Chorus 1
Maybe the best
was to say goodbye
Chorus 1
It wasn't working anymore, it wasn't working anymore, no, no
Verse 2
I think you didn't understand well
You don't like it, I know
That thing you want can never happen
Try to accept it and stop bothering me
Chorus 2
Don't ask me why
I don't want to know anymore
Chorus 2
Things change
Things change
Chorus 2
Maybe the best
was to say goodbye
Chorus 2
It wasn't working anymore, it wasn't working anymore, no, no
Chorus 3
Don't ask me why
I don't want to know anymore
Chorus 3
Things change
Things change
Chorus 3
Maybe the best
was to say goodbye
Chorus 3
It wasn't working anymore, it wasn't working anymore
Don't ask me why
I don't want to know anymore
Chorus 3
Things change
Things change
Chorus 3
Maybe the best
was to say goodbye
Chorus 3
It wasn't working anymore, it wasn't working anymore, no, no

SONG MEANING

“Ya No Jalaba” is PXNDX’s blunt goodbye note to a relationship that has lost its spark. The Mexican rockers use the colloquial phrase ya no jalaba (literally “it didn’t pull anymore”) to paint the picture of a romance that simply stopped working, like a machine that refuses to start. With catchy riffs and straight-to-the-point lyrics, the singer admits he spent days overthinking, hoping things might magically fix themselves. When nothing changed, he finally chose the simplest solution: say adiós and move on.

The chorus drives home a lesson in emotional practicality: people change, feelings fade, and sometimes the healthiest choice is to cut the cord and quit forcing what no longer flows. Instead of dramatic explanations, the narrator repeats “don’t ask me why,” signaling that not every breakup needs a detailed autopsy. The song’s upbeat energy turns a potentially sad moment into an empowering anthem about accepting change, setting clear boundaries, and giving yourself permission to start fresh.
