The song ‘INFINITOS COMO EL MAR’ (INFINITE LIKE THE SEA) by María Becerra tells the story of a deeply irrational and obsessive love for someone who is clearly toxic and problematic.
Shanina, María’s alter ego for this new era, is fully aware of the man’s flaws. He’s unfaithful, reckless, broke, a womanizer, has legal issues, and addictions—but still chooses to love him with intense, almost blind devotion.
The key themes of the song are obsession and idealization. Shanina stalks the man online and digs into his past, yet romanticizes the chaos he brings. There’s a clear sense of toxic attraction—despite all the red flags, she feels drawn to him precisely because he’s complicated and dangerous.
Another central theme is love against reason. The chorus repeats the idea of loving him “right or wrong,” grounded in the belief that their bond is beyond logic—infinite like the sea. Yet, the only certainty is self-destruction in the name of love. Shanina is willing to crash and burn with him, disregarding others’ opinions in pursuit of a connection that feels transcendent, even if doomed.
By the end of the song, Shanina reveals her unstable emotional state with a raw confession: “I don’t understand. I’m fine until I fall in love… and when I fall in love, everything goes to hell.” It’s a moment that lays bare the fragility beneath the fantasy.
The song is a mix of irony, darkness, and romantic fatalism—capturing the kind of love that’s both passionate and self-sabotaging, wrapped in poetic intensity.
‘INFINITOS COMO EL MAR’ English Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I saw you while walking down Calchaquí
Got your name, just like that
And started following you on Instagram (Ah)
I dove into your past
Looked up every girl you’ve ever had
Realized you’re a total scumbag
But I love things that are complicated
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you cheated on your girl
Countless run-ins with the law
You chain-smoke, and you’re addicted to coffee
But there’s something in you only I can see
[Chorus]
That’s why I’m gonna love you, right or wrong
No one will get it—we’ll be infinite like the sea
That’s why I’m gonna love you, right or wrong
No one will get it—we’ll be infinite like the sea
[Verse 2]
A womanizer, a bohemian—you gave up on your dreams
No job, no money, dangerous and deceitful
I followed you doing 200, I know everything about you
I don’t care what they say—together, we’ll crash and burn
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you cheated on your girl
Countless run-ins with the law
You chain-smoke, and you’re addicted to coffee
But there’s something in you only I can see
[Chorus]
That’s why I’m gonna love you, right or wrong
No one will get it—we’ll be infinite like the sea
That’s why I’m gonna love you, right or wrong
No one will get it—we’ll be infinite like the sea
