Carretera Perdida – Nine Inch Nails – The Perfect Drug

El siempre complicado de entender David Lynch reapareció en escena en 1997 con ‘Lost Highway’ -’Carretera perdida’, en España-. Un thriller en el que los elementos surrealistas de la factoría Lynch se entremezclan con el cine negro, policiaco. Y para diseñar la banda sonora, Lynch se alió con otro de esos chicos raros, el bueno de Trent Reznor. David Bowie, Marilyn Manson, Smashing Pumpkins o Rammstein, son algunos de los reclamos de este álbum que se convirtió en disco de oro, tras vender más de 500.000 copias, y alcanzó el puesto número 7 en el Billboard.
La canción estrella de este disco es “The Perfect Drug”, de Nine Inch Nails. Trent Reznor compuso esta canción para la banda sonora del film y, posteriormente, la editó junto a unos remixes en el ep ‘The Perfect Drug’ (Halo 11). Aunque este ep no contenía la versión original de la película, si no una algo ralentizada. Finalmente, fue incluida como bonus del single “We’re in This Together” (Halo 15). Por cierto, recomendamos encarecidamente el visionado del videoclip, que dirigió Mark Romanek.

I got my head, but my head is unraveling
Cant keep control, cant keep track of where its traveling
I got my heart but my heart is no good
And youre the only one thats understood
I come along but I dont know where youre taking me
I shouldnt go but youre reaching back and shaking me
Turn off the sun, pull the stars from the sky
The more I give to you, the more I die

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you

You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug

You make me hard, when Im all soft inside
I see the truth, when Im all stupid eyed
The arrow goes straight through my heart
Without you everything just falls apart

My blood wants to say hello to you
My feelings want to get inside of you
My soul is so afraid to realize
Every little word is a lack of me

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you
And I want you

You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
(whispering)
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the perfect drug, the perfect drug
You are the perfect drug, the drug, the perfect drug

Take me, with you
Take me, with you
Take me, with you
(continues in backround)
Without you, without you everything falls apart
Without you, its not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Without you, without you everything falls apart
Without you, its not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Its not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Its not as much fun to pick up the pieces
Without you, without you everything falls apart
Without you, its not as much fun to pick up the pieces
