Retorcido translates to "twisted" or "perverted." It's a strong adjective that goes beyond simply saying something is wrong; it implies a deeper, more complex kind of distortion.

In the song, the singer is searching for "un motivo retorcido" (a twisted reason) for why her partner left. She wants to believe there was some dark, complicated explanation for his actions, rather than facing the simpler, more painful truth that he just didn't love her. This word perfectly captures her desperate attempt to rationalize the heartbreak.
