Red Barchetta - Rush

Red Barchetta

Rush



Lyrics:
My uncle has a country place
That no one knows about.
He says it used to be a farm,
Before the Motor Law.
And on Sundays I elude the Eyes,
And hop the Turbine Freight
To far outside the Wire,
Where my white-haired uncle waits.

Jump to the ground
As the Turbo slows to cross the Borderline.
Run like the wind,
As excitement shivers up and down my spine.
Down in his barn,
My uncle preserved for me an old machine,
For fifty-odd years.
To keep it as new has been his dearest dream.

I strip away the old debris
That hides a shining car.
A brilliant red Barchetta
From a better, vanished time.
I fire up the willing engine,
Responding with a roar.
Tires spitting gravel,
I commit my weekly crime...

Wind!
In my hair!
Shifting and drifting!
Mechanical music!
Adrenalin surge...

Well-weathered leather,
Hot metal and oil,
The scented country air.
Sunlight on chrome,
The blur of the landscape,
Every nerve aware.

Suddenly ahead of me,
Across the mountainside,
A gleaming alloy air-car
Shoots towards me, two lanes wide.
I spin around with shrieking tires,
To run the deadly race,
Go screaming through the valley
As another joins the chase.

Drive like the wind,
Straining the limits of machine and man.
Laughing out loud
With fear and hope, I've got a desperate plan.
At the one-lane bridge
I leave the giants stranded at the riverside.
Race back to the farm, to dream with my uncle at the fireside.

Letra:
Mi tío tiene una casa en el campo
que nadie conoce.
Él dice que solía ser una granja,
antes de la Ley del Motor.
Y los Domingos, ignoro a los Ojos,
y me subo al Transporte a Turbina
hacia más allá de la Conexión,
donde me espera mi tío de pelos canosos.

Salto hacia el suelo
mientras el Turbo desacelera para cruzar la Línea Divisoria.
Corre como el viento,
mientras los escalofríos de excitación suben y bajan por mi columna.
allá en su granero,
mi tío conservó para mí una vieja máquina,
por cincuenta extraños años.
Mantenerlo como nuevo ha sido su sueño más preciado.

Retiro los antiguos escombros
que esconden un carro brillante.
Un brillante Barchetta rojo
de una mejor época, desvanecida.
Enciendo el motor dispuesto,
respondiendo con un rugido.
Las llantas escupen la grava,
cometo mi crimen semanal...

¡Viento!
¡en mi pelo!
¡cambiando y fluyendo!
¡música mecánica!
oleada de adrenalina...

Cuero bien curtido,
metal caliente y aceite,
el olor del campo perfumado.
Luz solar sobre el cromo,
la imagen borrosa del paisaje,
cada nervio listo.

De repente, delante de mí,
a través de la ladera (de la montaña),
una reluciente aleación de aire con carro
dispara hacia mí, con dos carriles de ancho.
Me doy vueltas con llantas chirriantes,
para recorrer la carrera mortal,
yendo gritando a través del valle
como otro que se une a la persecución.

Conduce como el viento,
forzando los límites de la máquina y del hombre.
Gritando en voz alta
con miedo y esperanza, tengo un plan desesperado.
En el puente de un solo carril
dejo a los gigantes varados en la orilla.
Regreso a la granja, para soñar con mi tío junto a la chimenea.

§1 - Opeth

 §1 Opeth Lyrics: Draped in death, the howl of lore Draped in death, the howl of lore   Alas, my time is at an end I have wallowed in self-pity And I confess to you As part of final plight   Draped in death, the howl of lore   This is the last will and testament of father Hear, the last will and testament of father   A syndicates mass in the waiting room Like spiders weave And rumors spread fast above regal tombs Enacted grief   I will here unearth the secrets I've been hiding (hiding, hiding) And guide my children through my trials   Put your trust in my command I thin the blood. I lift my hand   Draped in death, the howl of lore   This is the last will and testament of father Hear, the last will and testament of father   Letra: Cubierto de muerte, el aullido de la tradición   Cubierto de muerte, el aullido de la tradición     Ay, mi tiempo ha llegado a su fin   He estado sumido en la autocompasión   Y te

The Chant - Gojira

 The Chant Gojira Lyrics: You were told to swallow, crawl and hide Victims of fear and deception Get ahold of yourself, rise above The better part of you, immortal   May this purple spring flow into your soul Exhausting all these black holes inside Wake up to the sound of doom! Let this chant ring in your bones and lift you up   Get strong Get strong Get strong Get strong   Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom! Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom! Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up, wake up Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom! Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Letra: Se te dijo que tragaras, gatearas y te escondieras Víctimas del miedo y el engaño Contrólate a ti mismo, elévate por enci
