I will follow you into the dark

Death Cab For Cutie empezó siendo el proyecto en solitario de Ben Gibbard y con el paso del tiempo se ha convertido en una banda de la cabeza a los pies. La misma progresión sufren la mayoría de sus canciones para finalmente consumirse en una atmosfera perfecta en la que se funden en perfecta armonía la base rítmica junto con la voz de Gibbard y las guitarras de Walla. El mismo Chris Walla se encarga de la producción de los discos, y vaya si sabe sacarles partido.

Pero el tema que propongo hoy es justo lo contrario de todo esto: una voz y una guitarra sobran para conformar un tema perfecto, y esta es la prueba.

Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark

   If Heaven and Hell decide
   That they both are satisfied
  Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
  Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
'cause we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark

Como son tan buenos, hoy ración doble: "I will posses your heart"
