Con Relationship of Command se puso punto y final a la década de los noventa. El tercer y último album de At the Drive-in marcó un antes y un después en la historia de la música más reciente, convirtiéndose en uno de los discos más influyentes del rock actual.


One Armed Scissor fué el single con el que se dió a conocer esta obra marcada por un perfecto caos en el que encontramos una mezcla de guitarras agudas, cambios de ritmo y una voz desgarradora que la convierten en imprescindible en cualquier colección.

At The Drive-In - One Armed Scissor (Relationship of Command, 2000)


Yes this is a campaign,
slithered entrails
in the cargo bay
Neutered is the vastness
Hallow vacuum check the
oxygen tanks.
They hibernate
but have they kissed the ground
pucker up and kiss the asphalt now
Tease this amputation
splintered larynx
it has access now

cut Away, cut Away
Send transmission
from the one-armed scissor
cut away, cut away

Banked on memory.
Mummified circuitry,
Skin graft, machinery,
Sputnik sickles found in the seats

Self-destruct sequence
this station is non-operational
Species growing
Bubbles in an IV loitering

Unknown origin
Is this the comfort of being afraid?
Solar eclipsed
Black out the vultures
as they wait

cut away, cut away
Send transmission
from the one-armed scissor
(get Away, get Away)

Dissect a trillion sighs away
Will you get this letter?
Jagged pulp sliced in my veins
I write to remember
Cause I'm a million miles away,
Will you get this letter?
Jagged pulp sliced in my veins
I write to remember...
I write to remember...
I write to remember...

cut away, cut away
Send transmission
from the one-armed scissor
cut away, cut away
(cut away cut away cut away cut away)

Letra de One Armed Scissor...

Empezamos el año de la mano de King Crimson y su primer trabajo In the Court of the Crimson King (1969), considerado por muchos el primer disco de rock progresivo de la historia. Una obra genial con influencias que van desde el jazz y el rock a la música clásica que la dotan de un estilo muy personal que se reflejaría en muchos de sus contemporaneos. Tranquilidad, relajación y una mente abierta para un disco con muchísimos matices que lo convierten en una autentica obra maestra.


Epitaph nos envuelve con una atmosfera aparentemente tranquila que encierra un mensaje de desesperación y tristeza capaz de calar en cualquiera. Un autentico grito de angustia, de dolor, que hace de su escucha una experiencia única y que dificilmente deja indiferente.


King Crimson - Epitaph (In the Court of the Crimson King, 1969)




The wall on which the prophets wrote
Is cracking at the seams.
Upon the instruments of death
The sunlight brightly gleams.
When every man is torn apart
With nightmares and with dreams,
Will no one lay the laurel wreath
When silence drowns the screams.

Confusion will be my epitaph.
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back
And laugh.
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying,
Yes I fear tomorrow I'll be crying.

Between the iron gates of fate,
The seeds of time were sown,
And watered by the deeds of those
Who know and who are known;
Knowledge is a deadly friend
When no one sets the rules.
The fate of all mankind I see
Is in the hands of fools.

Confusion will be my epitaph.
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back
And laugh.
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying,
Yes I fear tomorrow I'll be crying.

Letra de Epitaph...

A falta de unos días para que termine este año toca echar cuentas y ver qué ha sido lo mejor de estos últimos doce meses musicalmente hablando. Hemos podido disfrutar de una gran cantidad de muy buenos discos tanto de grupos ya consagrados como de muchas otras jóvenes bandas que, sobre todo gracias a internet (léase entre líneas), se han hecho un hueco en nuestros reproductores. Y sobre todo hemos tenido la oportunidad de asistir a numerosos conciertos que han hecho del 2009 un año difícil de superar en cuanto a calidad musical y cantidad de eventos.

Ni son todos los que están, ni están todos los que son, pero después de varias vueltas y reescuchas aquí tenéis mi lista de lo mejor del 2009:

NACIONAL

1. BERRI TXARRAK - Payola

2. SOU EDIPO - Podría Ser En Cualquier Lugar

3. THE JOE K-PLAN - Rigan Asesino, OLibia vencerá

4. Hand of Fatima - Obake

5. Moais - Tras Las Esquinas del Círculo

6. Hamlet - La puta y el diablo

7. The Destroyed Room - Cringe for two years in...

8. Pülsar - Música para animales

9. Muletrain - Crashbeat

10. Wakala - Jardim in erva

INTERNACIONAL

1. ALICE IN CHAINS - Black Gives To Blue

2. CHEVELLE - Sci-Fi Crimes

3. GALLOWS - Grey Britain

4. Mono - Hymn To The Immortal Wind

5. Thrice - Beggars

6. Brand New - Daisy

7. Muse - The Resistance

8. Them Crooked Vultures - Them Crooked Vultures

9. Toe - For Long Tomorrow

10. Pearl Jam - Backspacer

Mención especial hay que hacer a otros muchos grupos que se han quedado fuera y que también hay que tenerlos en cuenta a la hora de hacer un repaso a este año que termina:

En el ámbito nacional:

* Cordura - El incendio más largo del mundo
* Maderacore - La importancia de llamarse humano
* Skunk D.F. - El Crisol


Y en el ámbito internacional:

* Maybeshewill - Sing the Word Hope in Four-Part Harmony
* Russian Circles - Geneva
* Porcupine Tree - The Incident
* John Frusciante - The Empyrean
* Biffy Clyro - Only Revolutions
* Placebo - Battle For The Sun
* ISIS - Wavering Radiant
* Alexisonfire - Old Crows, Young Cardinals
* Dredg - The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion
* Pelican - What We All Come To Need
* Jeremy Enigk - OK Bear


Esperemos que el 2010 sea como poco igual que este año (ojalá) y sobre todo que podamos ver a esas bandas que todavía nos faltan por saborear en directo como Thrice, Dredg, Gallows, Chevelle o Them Crooked Vultures (por pedir...) aunque para ello tengamos que irnos fuera de la península...

Manifiesto "En defensa de los derechos fundamentales en Internet."

Ante la inclusión en el Anteproyecto de Ley de Economía sostenible de modificaciones legislativas que afectan al libre ejercicio de las libertades de expresión, información y el derecho de acceso a la cultura a través de Internet, los periodistas, bloggers, usuarios, profesionales y creadores de internet manifestamos nuestra firme oposición al proyecto, y declaramos que…

1.- Los derechos de autor no pueden situarse por encima de los derechos fundamentales de los ciudadanos, como el derecho a la privacidad, a la seguridad, a la presunción de inocencia, a la tutela judicial efectiva y a la libertad de expresión.

2.- La suspensión de derechos fundamentales es y debe seguir siendo competencia exclusiva del poder judicial. Ni un cierre sin sentencia. Este anteproyecto, en contra de lo establecido en el artículo 20.5 de la Constitución, pone en manos de un órgano no judicial -un organismo dependiente del ministerio de Cultura-, la potestad de impedir a los ciudadanos españoles el acceso a cualquier página web.

3.- La nueva legislación creará inseguridad jurídica en todo el sector tecnológico español, perjudicando uno de los pocos campos de desarrollo y futuro de nuestra economía, entorpeciendo la creación de empresas, introduciendo trabas a la libre competencia y ralentizando su proyección internacional.

4.- La nueva legislación propuesta amenaza a los nuevos creadores y entorpece la creación cultural. Con Internet y los sucesivos avances tecnológicos se ha democratizado extraordinariamente la creación y emisión de contenidos de todo tipo, que ya no provienen prevalentemente de las industrias culturales tradicionales, sino de multitud de fuentes diferentes.

5.- Los autores, como todos los trabajadores, tienen derecho a vivir de su trabajo con nuevas ideas creativas, modelos de negocio y actividades asociadas a sus creaciones. Intentar sostener con cambios legislativos a una industria obsoleta que no sabe adaptarse a este nuevo entorno no es ni justo ni realista. Si su modelo de negocio se basaba en el control de las copias de las obras y en Internet no es posible sin vulnerar derechos fundamentales, deberían buscar otro modelo.

6.- Consideramos que las industrias culturales necesitan para sobrevivir alternativas modernas, eficaces, creíbles y asequibles y que se adecuen a los nuevos usos sociales, en lugar de limitaciones tan desproporcionadas como ineficaces para el fin que dicen perseguir.

7.- Internet debe funcionar de forma libre y sin interferencias políticas auspiciadas por sectores que pretenden perpetuar obsoletos modelos de negocio e imposibilitar que el saber humano siga siendo libre.

8.- Exigimos que el Gobierno garantice por ley la neutralidad de la Red en España, ante cualquier presión que pueda producirse, como marco para el desarrollo de una economía sostenible y realista de cara al futuro.

9.- Proponemos una verdadera reforma del derecho de propiedad intelectual orientada a su fin: devolver a la sociedad el conocimiento, promover el dominio público y limitar los abusos de las entidades gestoras.

10.- En democracia las leyes y sus modificaciones deben aprobarse tras el oportuno debate público y habiendo consultado previamente a todas las partes implicadas. No es de recibo que se realicen cambios legislativos que afectan a derechos fundamentales en una ley no orgánica y que versa sobre otra materia.

Este manifiesto, elaborado de forma conjunta por varios autores, es de todos y de ninguno. Si quieres sumarte a él, difúndelo por Internet.

Ignite - Bleeding (Our Darkest Days, 2006)


Bleeding
To my country
The mounting costs
Our freedom's lost
The death of liberty

We live in a Kingdom of reigns
The dogs of war rule the day
The hypocrites roam in gangs
The truth is lost
It's wars first casualty

Speak the truth
If you've got something to say
To leaf the boys off to war
Is to throw them away
Depleted rounds kill
RU-238
These troubled times
Bringing on our darkest days

Is this the death of liberty
Is this the price
that life has come
to mean
All our friends, now enemies
The misery of

Bleeding
To my country
The mounting costs
Our freedom's lost
The death of liberty

Tell the truth
If you've got something to say
No blood for oil, killing fields
Halliburton money
Wounded troops left to rot
No help from the VA
These troubled times
Bringing on our darkest days

Is this the death of liberty
Is this the price
that life has come
to mean
All our friends, now enemies
The misery of

Bleeding
To my country
The mounting costs
Our freedom's lost
The death of liberty

Speak the truth or Throw it away

Is this the death of liberty
Is this the price
that life has come
to mean
All our friends, now enemies
The misery of

Bleeding
To my country
The mounting costs
Our freedom's lost
The death of liberty.

Deftones - Digital Bath (White Pony, 2000)


you move like I want to
to see like your eyes do
we are downstairs where
no one can see
new life break away
tonight I feel like more
tonight I
you make the water warm
you taste foreign
and I know you can see
the cord break away
cause tonight I feel like more
tonight I feel like more
tonight I feel
feel like more(tonight)
you breathed
then you stopped
I breathed then dried you off
and tonight
I feel like more
tonight

Alexisonfire - This Could Be Anywhere in the World (Crisis, 2006)


this town is his cause burying my neck
this air it takes off, without rushing, without haste

the streets are in distress,
the sun suffocates behind darkened skies
the grass is growing under my feet
i'm thinking it wont be long before you get

the line-up seems endless,
underneath the salvation sign
we are the dead ones, we are the lost cause
we are the people who will not blame ourselves from this cause

the city, the city is haunted, by ghosts (ghosts) from broken homes (homes)
because this city, this city is haunted. theres no hope. (hope) left for these souls (souls)

every step i take, i leave a small piece of myself behind soon there will be nothing left

the cracks in the pavement, match the cracks in their weathered skin,
the skies a brick wall, the clouds a juggernaut
each day as we know
I stare in amazement, I cant believe this is where I live
every breath i take, i feel my lungs fail

the city, the city is haunted, by ghosts (ghosts) from broken homes (homes)
because this city, this city is haunted. theres no hope. (hope) left for these souls (souls)

Our steps seal fate
Our steps seal fate
(this is our celebration
come join the lost souls) [x2]

the city, the city is haunted
walk with us

the city, the city is haunted, by ghosts (ghosts) from broken homes (homes)
because this city, this city is haunted. theres no hope. (hope) left for these souls (souls)

David Bowie - Space Oddity (Space Oddity, 1969)


Ground control to Major Tom
Ground control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on

Ground control to Major Tom (10, 9, 8, 7)
Commencing countdown, engines on (6, 5, 4, 3)
Check ignition, and may God's love be with you (2, 1, liftoff)

This is ground control to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare

This is Major Tom to ground control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today

For here am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue, and there's nothing I can do

Though I'm past 100,000 miles
I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much
She knows

Ground control to Major Tom
Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you

Here am I floating round my tin can
Far above the moon
Planet Earth is blue, and there's nothing I can do.

Letra de Space Oddity...

Hamlet - En Mi Nombre (Pura Vida, 2006)


A menudo pienso en mi
sin lugar a donde ir
Sin nada que decir...
Y esa extraña sensación
que me ignora sin perdón
esconde confusión.

Y ahora he desplazado
el tiempo hacia mi lado
orientando a otra latitud.
Giro hacia un espacio
indeterminado
que resuelva mi ansiedad.

En mi nombre he de juzgar
aquello que hice mal.
Y en mi nombre no habrá más
que ganas de luchar.

Toda un sucesión
de momentos sin control
se agolpan sobre mi.
Necesito recordar
para no volver jamás
espero no fallar.

Y ahora he desplazado
el tiempo hacia mi lado
a riesgo de no encontrar.
Lo que estoy buscando
queda solo a un paso
no me voy a defraudar.

En mi nombre he de juzgar
aquello que hice mal.
Y en mi nombre no habrá más
que ganas de luchar.


He llegado a estar atado
inmovilizado y no sé porqué.
Amordazado, alucinado
sin necesidad de estar a sus pies.
Pero he vuelto y no contemplo
esconderme y no saber que hacer.
Sólo acepto, tan sólo acepto
haberme equivocado una vez.

Una vez, solo una vez, una vez...

Letra de En Mi Nombre...

The Offspring - All I Want (Ixnay On The Hombre, 1997)


Okay

Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya

Day after day your home life's a wreck
The powers that be just breathe down your neck
You get no respect
You get no relief
You gotta speak up
And yell out your piece

So back off your rules
Back off your jive
Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone
Not asking a lot
I don't wanna be controlled

That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want

Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya

How many times is it gonna take
Till someone around you hears what you say
You've tried being cool
You feel like a lie
You've played by their rules
Now it's their turn to try

So back off your rules
Back off your jibe
Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone
Not asking a lot
I just don't wanna be controlled

That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want

I said it before
I'll say it again
If you could just listen then it might make sense

So back off your rules
Back off your jibe
Cause I'm sick of not living to stay alive
Leave me alone
Not asking a lot
Just don't wanna be controlled

That's all I want
That's all I want
That's all I want

Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya

Letra de All I Want...

Placebo - Special K (Black Market Music, 2000)


Coming up beyond belief
On this coronary thief
More than just a leitmotif
More chaotic, no relief
I'll describe the way I feel
Weeping wounds that never heal
Can the savior be for real
Or are you just my seventh seal?

No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand
Gravity
No escaping gravity
Gravity
No escaping... not for free
I fall down... hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around

I'll describe the way I feel
You're my new Achilles heel
Can this savior be for real
Or are you just my seventh seal?

No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand
Gravity
No escaping gravity
Gravity
No escaping... not for free
I fall down... hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around

No escaping gravity
No escaping gravity
No escaping gravity
No escaping gravity
Gravity [x4]

Green Day - Basket Case (Dookie, 1994)


Do you have the time
To listen to me whine
About nothing and everything
All at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it

Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Or I'm just stoned

I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
She says it's lack of sex
That's bringing me down
I went to a whore
He said my life's a bore
So quit my whining cause
It's bringing her down

Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Uh, yuh, yuh, ya

Grasping to control
So I better hold on

Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Or I'm just stoned.

Letra de Basket Case...

Los Suaves - El Afilador (Santa compaña, 1994)


Está regresando a casa
en donde se ahoga el sol
y va cerrando los ojos
para poder ver mejor.
La lluvia ya se marchó
despertaron las estrellas
y se ve el camino del cielo
mucho más que el de la tierra.

Va caminando solo
pensativo; triste y viejo
viviendo mientras no muere
los solitarios dan miedo.
Anduvo de aquí para allá
y ahora que siente su hora
viene a echarse a descansar
a dejar su rueda sola.

Noche, niebla, hora secreta
tiempo del afilador
es que ¿nunca va a ganar?
un solitario soñador
solitario perdedor.

Los largos dedos del sol
apartan el manto de seda
en este país que por siglos
fue el final de la tierra
y él va llorando, amigo
por algo más que sus penas
no hay luces en las ventanas
ni bienvenida el la puerta.

Al pozo de los recuerdos
él ha ido a revolver
y en las aguas remansadas
hay mentiras de mujer
y cuentan que él lo supo
y que entonces lo mató
la pena de haberlo sabido
la pena de una traición.

Noche, niebla, hora secreta
tiempo del afilador
es que ¿nunca va a ganar?
un solitario soñador
solitario perdedor.


Letra de El Afilador...

Alice In Chains - Black Gives Way To Blue (Black Gives Way To Blue, 2009)


I don't wanna feel no more
It's easier to keep falling
Imitations are pale
Emptiness on
Tomorrow's haunted by your ghost

Lay down, Black gives way to blue
Lay down, I'll remember you

Fading out by design
Consciously avoiding changes
Curtains drawn, now it's done
Silencing off
Tomorrow's forcing a goodbye

Lay down, Black gives way to blue
Lay down, I'll remember you

Biffy Clyro - That Golden Rule (Only Revolutions, 2009)


Son of Henry, I'm the first in line
To the throne, smell my mustard gas
I slash swords through your wooden spine
Well it cut my heart and it blew my head
We made love at the side of the road
Reflex, you better know this flows fast
This river is particularly sinister
Close your eyes and take my hand

I wanna scream one last death medley
I am looking for a reason to secure a forward motion

Chorus
Love that golden rule, that golden rule
Need that golden rule, that golden rule
Secrets are the truth, they are the truth
We need that silver rule, that silver rule

Face to face with the ball and chain
I'll poke my head up till its red
I tell my secrets and you took my pain
About a broken heart and I will do it again
Son of Henry, I'm the first in line
To the throne, smell my mustard gas
I slash swords through your wooden spine
Well it cut my heart and it blew my head

I want to scream one last death medley
I am looking for a reason to secure a forward motion

Chorus
Love that golden rule that golden rule
Need that golden rule that golden rule
Secrets are the truth they are the truth
We need that silver rule that silver rule

Slipknot - Before I Forget (Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses, 2004)


Go!

Stapled shut, inside an outside world and I'm
Sealed in tight, bizarre but right at home
Claustrophobic, closing in and I'm
Catastrophic, not again
I'm smeared across the page, and doused in gasoline
I wear you like a stain, yet I'm the one who's obscene
Catch me up on all your sordid little insurrections,
I've got no time to lose, and I'm just caught up in all the cattle

Fray the strings
Throw the shapes
Hold your breath
Listen!

I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
BEFORE I FORGET THAT!

I'm ripped across the ditch, and settled in the dirt and I'm
I wear you like a stitch, yet I'm the one who's hurt
Pay attention to your twisted little indiscretions
I've got no right to win, I'm just caught up all the battles

Locked in clutch
Pushed in place
Hold your breath
Listen!

I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
BEFORE I FORGET THAT!

I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
BEFORE I FORGET THAT!

My end
It justifies my means
All I ever do is delay
My every attempt to evade
The end of the road and my end
It justifies my means
All I ever do is delay
My every attempt to evade
THE END OF THE ROAD!

I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
BEFORE I FORGET THAT!

I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
BEFORE I FORGET THAT!

I am a world before I am a man
I was a creature before I could stand
I will remember before I forget
BEFORE I FORGET THAT!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, OH!

Chevelle - Jars (Sci-Fi Crimes, 2009)


Hold onto chance
Lest we bleed ourselves
Then save for the pets
They’re the loneliest

Put into jars
We’ll save this earth
Put into jars
We’ll save this earth

We can’t both become the same pawn
That’s made to fall
Oil that tastes like blood
Stole the summer scent
from me to you
You’re stabbing me through you
You’re stabbing you through him
And betting most of...
This world!!
We’ll add enough of the world

Steal from yourselves
It never felt so good
collect feed from their hand’s
Confused by opposites

Put into jars
We’ll save this earth
Put into jars
Keep safe this earth

We can’t both become the same pawn
That’s made to fall
Oil that tastes like blood
Stole the summer scent
from me to you
You’re stabbing me through you
You’re stabbing you through him
And betting most of...

This world!!
We’ll add enough of the world (x2)

Feeling manic for a day
Depends on the trends
Depends on the surface
If the sun never sets

We can’t both become the same pawn
That’s made to fall
Oil that tastes like blood
Stole the summer scent
from me to you
You’re stabbing me through you
You’re stabbing you through him
And betting most of...
This world!!
We’ll add enough of the world


Is the main thing you’ll shout
Till the bitter end...

Into Jars

Joe Cocker - A Little Help From My Friends (Woodstock, 1969)


What would you do if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

What do I do when my love is away
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
How do I feel by the end of the day,
(Are you sad because you're on your own?)

No, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.

Would you believe in a love at first sight
Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light
I can't tell you but I know it's mine,

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I just need someone to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
with a little help from my friends.

Thrice - Firebreather (Live At The House Of Blues, 2008)


Tell me are you free
Tell me are you free
In word or thought or deed
Tell me are you free
While the gallows stand

And bullets lance the bravest lungs
We fold our hands and hold our tongues

Tell me are you free
When the fear falls in you
Tell me are you free
When the fear falls in you

Tell me are you free
Tell me are you free
In word or thought or deed
Tell me are you free
While the gallows stand

And bullets lance the bravest lungs
Will I fold my hands or hold my tongue

Or let the flames lick at my feet
Or breathe in fire and know I'm free
Flames will rise and devour me
Oh, to breathe in fire and know I'm free

Know I'm free!

Berri txarrak - Isiltzen Banaiz (Jaio.Musika.Hil, 2005)


Antzeko zauriekin hemen gaude
Orbain forma hartu duen irribarrez
Baina etorri egin zara hala ere

Ta isiltzen banaiz ez da hitzik ez dudalako
Momentu asko hautsi ditut dagoenerako

Horitu zitzaizkigun ilusioak
Ta bidali gabeko eskutitzak
Gaur eskuminak eman zorionari

Ta isiltzen banaiz ez da hitzik ez dudalako
Momentu asko hautsi ditut dagoenerako

Ez dago miraririk, badakizu
Bizitzea besterik, badakigu
Ta urruti zaude

Ta mila hitz asmatu ditut damuaren antzekoak
Ta mila begirada triste zurearen antzekoak


Traducción:

Con las heridas de siempre estamos aquí;
con una sonrisa te había informado,
aunque aun así has venido,
y si me callo es porque no tengo palabras,
ya he estropeado muchos momentos.

Eso nos había`parecido una ilusión;
una carta sin enviar,
he dado las gracias a la felicidad,
y si me callo es porque no tengo palabras,
ya he estropeado muchos momentos.

No hay milagros, y lo sabemos, solo la vida, y lo sabes
y estamos aquí, y estamos lejos(estamos lejos).

Y por suerte he adivinado a los que son como los fantasmas,
y el dolor de la mirada triste, pareciéndose a ti.

Nine Inch Nails - Hurt (The Downward Spiral, 1994)


I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of shit
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end

You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
