JUEVES - LYRICS ("Duel")

- Duel – Propaganda

Eye to eye stand winners and losers,

hurt by envy, cut by greed.

Face to face with their own disillusion,

the scars of old romances still on their cheeks.

And when blow by blow the passion dies,

sweet little death just have been lies,

the memories of gone by time

would still recall the lie.

The first cut won't hurt at all,

the second only makes you wonder,

the third will have you on your knees.

You start bleeding I start screaming.

It's too late the decision is made by fate.

Time to prove what forever should last

whose feelings are so true as to stand the test

whose demands are so strong as to parry all attempts.

And when blow by blow the passion dies,

sweet little death just have been lies,

the memories of gone by time

would still recall the lie.

The first cut won't hurt at all,

the second only makes you wonder,

the third will have you on your knees.

You start bleeding I start screaming. (x4)

- Notas:  La canción es la historia de una relación que se ha convertido en una pesadilla dolorosa a causa de la mentira y que se relata como si fuese una pelea de navajas entre dos personas, haciéndose daño y tolerándolo al principio para acabar mortalmente herido al final. Es por ello que el título es “duel” (“duelo”) ya que la relación se ve como un duelo armado entre dos personas.

- 1. “…recall the lie…” = “To recall” es un verbo muy parecido a “to remind”, ya que se usa para indicar el recordar o que te venga de nuevo a la memoria algo del pasado.

- 2. “…have you on your knees…” = “To have / get someone on her knees” es poner a alguien de rodillas en señal de rendirse y reconocer la derrota, como para pedir perdón o clemencia.

- 3. “…to parry all attempts…” = El verbo “to parry” se usa para indicar el rechazar los ataque o intentos de alguien para conseguir algo. Supone por tanto resistirse con éxito a las intenciones de otra persona o grupo.
