Fields of the Nephilim - Celebrate

Probablemente mi canción favorita de los Nephilim. Minimalista, melancólica, magnífica.



Letras:

When the moment's right
Only moments rise
For the lesser blessed
It's all promises
When the daughters rise
From their comas rise
For a lesser blessed
It seems honest here
Celebrate give love and praise
Celebrate
For our lesser days
Obsessions in your eyes
The peril of my life
Where others fall
You came back again
With no grace in mind
For the magan blind
To a lesser god we'd seem honest here
And you'll turn
You'll find new highways
And you'll turn
But lady you'll burn
This moment's all you have it there
This moment hangs like your ragged hair
Celebrate
Give love and praise
Celebrate
For our lesser days
When the moment's right
Only moments rise
The eternal sea of silence
The shadows of mankind
And you'll turn
You'll find new highways
And you'll turn
You find new highways
Celebrate here
Celebrate here please
For all you've changed me
Celebrate here
Celebrate here
Celebrate for our lesser days

Johnny Cash - Hurt

Johnny Cash versiona el que probablemente sea el mejor tema de NIN (podéis ver y escuchar el original en http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eX8Lmcrm5sU ). Una obra maestra inmortal sobre la muerte.




Letras:
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 stain of time
The feeling disappears
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
