ESAS DROGAS...

Me he percatado de haber hecho gala de una terrible afrenta hacia mi mismo y mi sentido de lo musicalmente excelso durante mucho tiempo...

Mi droga favorita,nymphetamine:

6. Nymphetamine (Overdose)

Evanescent like the scent of decay
I was fading from the race
When in despair, my darkest days
Ran amok and forged her face
From the fairest of handmaidens to
A slick perverted wraith

Nymphetamine

Heaving midst narcissus
On a maledict blanket of stars
She was all three wishes
Sex, sex, sex

A lover hung on her death row
I was hooked on her disease
Highly strung like Cupid's bow
Whose arrows hungered meat
And the blinding flare of passion
In the shade of narrow streets
Where their poison never rationed
All the tips they left in me

Two tracks
Bric-a-brac
Something passed between us
Like a bad crack
Upward-lit
I'd met another kind

Of rat
In fact
With every rome inside me
Licked and ransacked
She haunted at the corners of my mind

In black
Cataracts
Wouldn't whitewash away
Her filthy smoke stack
She burnt me like a furnace
For my future suicide
--------------------
LIV

Lead to the river
Midsummer, I waved
A 'V'' of black swans
On with hope to the grave
All through Red September
With skies fire-paved
I begged you appear
Like a thorn for the holy ones

DANI

Cold was my soul
Untold was the pain
I faced when you left me
A rose in the rain
So I swore to the razor
That never, enchained
Would your dark nails of faith
Be pushed through my veins again

LIV

Bared on your tomb
I'm a prayer for your loneliness
And would you ever soon
Come above unto me?
For once upon a time
From the binds of your lowliness
I could always find
The right slot for your sacred key

DANI

Six feet deep is the incision
In my heart, that barless prison
Discolours all with tunnel vision
Sunsetter
Nymphetamine
Sick and weak from my condition
This lust, a vampyric addiction
To her alone in full submission
None better
Nymphetamine

Nymphetamine, nymphetamine
Nymphetamine girl
Nymphetamine, nymphetamine
My nymphetamine girl

Wracked with your charm
I am circled like prey
Back in the forest
Where whispers persuade
More sugar trails
More white lady laid
Than pillars of salt

LIV

Fold to my arms
Hold their mesmeric sway
And dance her to the moon
As we did in those golden days

DANI

Christening stars
I remember the way
We were needle and spoon
Mislaid in the burning hay

LIV

Bared on your tomb
I'm a prayer for your loneliness
And would you ever soon
Come above unto me?
For once upon a time
From the binds of your holiness
I could always find
The right slot for your sacred key

DANI

Six feet deep is the incision
In my heart, that barless prison
Discolours all with tunnel vision
Sunsetter
Nymphetamine
Sick and weak from my condition
This lust, a vampyric addiction
To her alone in full submission
None better
Nymphetamine

Sunsetter
Nymphetamine (Nymphetamine)
None better
Nymphetamine

Ahora os explico el porque de las acotaciones.En primer lugar,he separado las dos partes de esta canción.El trozo de en medio es un tema por si solo,para ser exactos,la pista 14 del disco,nymphetamine fix.Y bueno,claramente,a pesar de ser la misma canción y el mismo tema,es un enfoque algo distinto.

He querido también hacer incapie en las dos voces que intervienen en la canción.Liv no es Liv Tyler XD.Es Liv Kristine;por si os suena la voz y no la acabais de ubicar,esta preciosidad era la voz de Theatre Of Tragedy (creo que ahora está en Leaves' eyes,pero no me hagais mucho caso,que esto va de memoria).Y su voz es el perfecto contrapunto para Dani en el tema.

Supongo que no hace falta explicar la letra,¿no?Ni tampoco porqué me gusta tantísimo XD.Por cierto,hay videoclip de la parte "fix".VEDLO,os encantará,palabra de noldo.

PD.Sí,esta es la canción de Cradle que toco cada dos por tres,nene XD (más sencilla que el mecanismo de un chupete,i promise)

Aunque parezca que no viene al caso...
¿Has leído Lolita?

Fearuth dijo...

Errrr,sí y sí.Vamos,que parece no venir al caso y que la he leido XD.Ya explicarás el porqué de la asociación de ideas

Lothi dijo...

Nymphetamine-nymphete
Nymphete-nínfula
Nínfula-Lolita
Fue Nabokov quien acuñó el término, claro, en Lolita.
No es asociación de ideas, es inspiración del autor de la canción en la nínfula, en la niña-mala...A veces creo que todo el mundo que quiere escribir debería leer Lolita. Y que todo el mundo que quiere escribir tiene una Lolita entre sus cuadernos...O a lo mejor sólo yo, que estoy pirada. XDDD

¿Sentido de lo musicalmente excelso? ¿Desde cuando gastas tú un sentido de esos? :) Sea lo que sea lo que te has tomao antes de escribir eso, yo quiero dos.
