Cómo duele, cómo arde cuando echan alcohol en una cicatriz

-
Yo te juro que si fuera por mí me fugo en helicóptero a la chingada
➔ Use of second conditional ('si fuera', 'me fugo') with subjunctive and conditional mood.
➔ The phrase 'si fuera por mí' imagines a hypothetical situation, expressing desire or impossibility.
-
Me puse coqueta, me forré de oro el colmillo
➔ Use of reflexive verb 'ponerse' to describe a change of state or attitude.
➔ 'Me puse coqueta' means 'I became flirtatious' — showing transformation in mood or persona.
-
Me fugué de la oscuridad

-
