Letra de Apply Some Pressure (A Cetain Trigger):

You know that I,
would love to see ya Next Year,
I hope that I'm,
still alive Next Year,
you might be fine,
with the way i think about myself,
before you came,
i rarely thought about myself,

How dya feel,
I found a body underneath,
inside your head,
things i never thought about,

You know that I,
would love to see ya Next Year,
I hope that I'm,
still alive Next Year

What's my view,
well how am i supposed to know
write to review,
well how objective can i be?
What's my view,
well how am i supposed to know
write to review,
well how objective can i be?

You know that I,
would love to see you in that dress,
I hope that I,
will live to see you undress,
the every dare, is part of what consumes me,
the hit i deal, is part of what fuels me,

I testify, to hide my guilty feelings,
I must confess, I'd like to be caught stealing,

You know that I,
would love to see ya Next Year,
I hope that I'm,
still alive Next Year

What's my view,
well how am i supposed to know
write to review,
well how objective can i be?
What's my view,
well how am i supposed to know
write to review,
well how objective can i be?

I'd like to wait, to see how things turn out,
If you apply some pressure,
I'd like to wait, to see how things turn out,
If you apply some pressure,

What happens when you lose every-thing,
you just start again,
you start all over again,
What happens when you lose every-thing,
you just start again,
you start all over again,

I'd like to wait, to see how things turn out,
If you apply some pressure,
I'd like to wait, to see how things turn out,
If you apply some pressure,

What happens when you lose every-thing,
you just start again,
you start all over again,
What happens when you lose every-thing,
you just start again,
you start all over again,

What happens when you lose every-thing,
you just start again,
you start all over again,
(Apply some pressure)

What happens when you lose some pressure,
apply some pressure,
you lose some pressure
apply some pressure,
you lose some pressure
apply some pressure,
you lose some pressure

What happens when you lose some pressure,
apply some pressure,
you lose some pressure
(on every-thing)
you lose some pressure
you just start again,

You know that I,
would love to see ya Next Year,
I hope that I'm,
still alive Next Year,
You know that I,
would love to see you in that dress,
I hope that I,
will live to see you undress.

Con su tercer álbum de estudio(White Blood Cells) saltaron a la fama, y Elephant (2003) los consagró en la escena musical internacional. Su quinto álbum fue lanzado en 2005 (Get Behind Me Satan).

Letra de Seven Nation Army ( Elephant):

I'm gonna fight 'em all
A nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back

And I'm talking to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
And the message coming from my eyes
Says leave it alone

Don't want to hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell

And if I catch it coming back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
And that aint what you want to hear
But thats what I'll do
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says find a home

I'm going to Wichita
Far from this opera for evermore
I'm gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
Right before the lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will sing no more
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me go back home

I'm sick of hearing about the haves and the have not's.
Have some personal accountability.
The biggest problem with the way that we are doing things is.
The more we let you have the less that I'll be keeping for me.

Well I used to stand for something.
Now I'm on my hands and knees.
Trading you my God for this one.
He signs his name with a capital G.

Don't give a shit about the temperature in Guatemala uh.
Don't really see what all the fuss is about,
Ain't gonna worry 'bout no future generations and a,
I'm sure somebody's gonna figure it out

Don't try to tell me how some power can corrupt a person,
You haven't had enough to know what its like,
You're only angry cause you wish you were in my position,
Now nod your head because you know that I'm right..all right!

Well I used to stand for something
But forgot what that could be
There's a lot of me inside you
Maybe you're afraid to see.

Well I used to stand for something
Now I'm on my hands and knees
Traded in my God for this one
He signs his name with a capital G...

Well I used to stand for something
But forgot what that could be
There's a lot of me inside you
Maybe you're afraid to see.

Well I used to stand for something
Now I'm on my hands and knees
Traded in my God for this one
He signs his name with a capital G.

El disco arranca con Invaders Must Die, reflejando el estilo inconfundible de la banda, Omen y Thunder llevan el poderío de los beats de percusión y el sonido ensordecedor de los gritos sampleados, Take Me To The Hospital es apabullante, Run With The Wolves cuenta con la colaboración de Dave Grohl en la batería, en uno de los temas más rockeros del álbum. El disco cierra con Stand Up, un tema más cálido que los demás.

Lista de temas:

  • 2.Omen
  • 3.Thunder

Come with me to the dance floor,
You and me cause that´s what it´s for
Show me now what is it
You got to be doing
And the music in the house... is so soothing

Letra de Only:

I'm becoming less defined, as days go by
Fading away, well you might say I'm losing focus
Kinda drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself

Sometimes, I think I can see right through myself
Sometimes, I think I can see right through myself
Sometimes, I can see right through myself

Less concerned, about fitting into the world
Your world that is, cause it doesn't really matter anymore (no, it doesn't really matter anymore)
No, it doesn't really matter anymore
None of this really matters anymore

Yes I am alone but then again I always was
As far back as I can tell, I think maybe it's because
brecause you were never really real to begin with
I just made you up, to hurt myself

I just made you up to hurt myself
Yeah, and I just made you up to hurt myself
I just made you up to hurt myself
Yeah, and I just made you up to hurt myself

And it worked
Yes it did!

There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me
There is no fucking you, there is only me
There is no fucking you, there is only me

Only (x4)

Well the tiniest little dot caught my eye and it turned out to be a scab
And I had this funny feeling, like I just knew it's something bad

I just couldn't leave it alone
I've been picking at that scab
It was a doorway trying to seal itself shut
But I climbed through

Now I'm somewhere I am not supposed to be
And I can see things I know I really shouldn't see
And now I know why now, now I know why
Things aren't as pretty, on the inside

There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me
There is no fucking you, there is only me
There is no fucking you, there is only me

Only (x8)

the sweetest price he'll have to pay
the day the whole world went away

The only thing that works for me
Help me get away from myself,

I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to God

You can have my isolation
You can have the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith
You can have my everything

(Help me...)
You tear down my reason
(Help me...)
It's your sex I can smell
(Help me...)
You make me perfect
Help me become somebody else

I wanna fuck you like an animal
I wanna feel you from the inside
I wanna fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to God

Through every forest
Above the trees
Within my stomach
Scraped off my knees
I drink the honey, inside your hive...
You are the reason I stay alive...

Nine Inch Иails: Broken

Lanzado en 1992, conocido también como Halo 5. El metal y las guitarras violentas se encuentran muy marcadas en este disco, además de la lírica rica en sarcasmos y alusiones a la violencia. Está producido por Trent Reznor y Flood. Es un EP que contiene seis canciones, entre ellas Wish, ganadora de un Grammy en la categoría Metal, y dos canciones extra en las pista 98 y 99 respectivamente. El video de Happiness In Slavery fue censurado universalmente debido a su contenido gráfico porque muestra al artista Bili Kazue amarrándose a sí mismo a una máquina que a continuación le da placer torturándolo y finalmente matándolo. Después de Broken sale el EP de remixes Fixed (Halo 6).

This is the first day of my last days
I built it up now I take it apart
Climbed up real high
Now fall down real far

No need for me to stay
The last thing left I just threw it away
I put my faith in God and my trust in you
Now there's nothing more fucked up I could do

Wish there was something real
Wish there was something true
Wish there was something real
In this world full of you

I'm the one without a soul
I'm the one with this big fucking hole
No new tale to tell
Twenty-six years on my way to hell
Gotta listen to your big time, hard line, bad luck fist fuck
Don't think you're having all the fun
You know me I hate everyone

Wish there was something real
Wish there was something true
Wish there was something real
In this world full of you

I want to but I can't turn back
But I want to, but I can't turn back

Wish there was something real
Wish there was something true
Wish there was something real
In this world full of you

Just when everything was making sense.
You took away all my self-confidence.
Now all that I've been hearing must be true.
I guess I'm not the only boy for you.

But that's what I get
That's what I get
That's what I get
That's what I get

How could you turn me into this?
After you just taught me how to kiss you.
I told you I'd never say goodbye.
Now I'm slipping on the tears you made me cry.

But that's what I get
That's what I get
That's what I get
That's what I get


Why does it come as a surprise.
To think that I was so naive.
Maybe didn't mean that much.
But it meant everything to me.

But that's what I get
That's what I get
That's what I get
That's what I get
