El Príncipe de la Dulce Pena II

Txus Di Fellatio's song "El Príncipe de la Dulce Pena II" is a hauntingly poetic exploration of sorrow, longing, and the duality of light and darkness. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a protagonist who feels exiled from the light, engaging in a torturous monologue with death. This sense of banishment and despair is further emphasized by the imagery of a funeral lament and the protagonist's tears of pity and misfortune.

The song delves into the bittersweet nature of sacrilegious kisses and the intoxicating allure of a fallen pariah. The protagonist describes the beloved's blood as a perfume that, once inhaled, leads to a state of inebriation, causing his lips to become prisoners of her walls and his youth to be wounded. This metaphorical language suggests a deep, almost vampiric connection, where the protagonist is both captivated and tormented by his love.

The imagery of the protagonist's body waiting in a coffin made of sadness, sex, and wood, stained with the blood of a river from the beloved's dark side, adds to the song's gothic and melancholic atmosphere. The lingering scent of the beloved's last kisses and the protagonist's pillow weeping in her absence highlight the profound sense of loss and yearning. The invocation of the beloved's name and the howling at the moon further underscore the protagonist's anguish and his identity as the 'Prince of Sweet Sorrow.' The final lines, where the protagonist's breath lodges in the beloved's neck, and the choice between light and darkness is presented, encapsulate the song's central themes of love, pain, and the eternal struggle between opposing forces.
