Con buena letra 3: Crime Scene Part One by Greg Dulli

Uno de los mejores inicios de cualquier disco que se me pase por la cabeza lo firmó Greg Dulli con Afghan Whigs en el eterno Black Love. Dulli obsesionado con el cine y la literatura, seguidor de del soul y las películas blaxploitation de los 70 creó en Black Love una pequeña película con canciones tan buenas como esta. Espectacular forma de empezar un disco que merece un post aparte.




Tonight, tonight i say goodbye
To everyone who loves me
Stick it to my enemies, tonight
Then i disappear
Bathe my path in shining light
Set the dials to thrill me
Every secret has its price
This one's set to kill
Too loose, too tight, too dark, too bright
A lie, the truth, which one should i use?
If the lie succeeds
Then you'll know what i mean
When i tell you i have secrets
To attend

Do you think i'm beautiful?
Or do you think i'm evil?
Will you take me for a ride?
The one that never ends
Too loose, too tight, too dark, too bright
A lie, the truth, which one shall i use?
If the lie succeeds
Then you'll know what i mean
When i tell you i have secrets
To attend

Tonight, tonight i say goodbye
To everything that thrills me
As i throw the chains
I forged in life
To shatter on the floor

As i dream all the evidence
Is piling up against me
As i breathe all the essence rare
Is falling off the vine
And if you knew, just how smooth
I could stop it on the dime
You could meet me at the
Scene of the crime
