Nachtwache

E Nomine

Dein Blaubeermund im Neonlicht
dein Blaubeermund so viel verspricht
dein Blaubeermund so kühl so zart
mein Herz steht still an diesem Tag


Ich arbeite im Haus der verschiedenen
sie liegen in Reih‘ und Glied
ob schön hässlich, jung oder alt
manchmal vielleicht auch verletzt
sie sind meine Freunde und werden schon bald
vom Werk der Würmer zersetzt
seit deiner Ankunft hab ich gespürt


Dein Blaubeermund im Neonlicht
dein Blaubeermund so viel verspricht
dein Blaubeermund so kühl und zart
mein Herz steht still an diesem Tag
die Nähe zu dir ist so fern
deine Aura, sie hat mich berührt
und verführt, ich habe deinen Geruch so gern
in deinen wunderschönen Augen
schimmert kaltes Neonlicht wie die Sterne am Firmament
so kühl so fahl so schlicht


Dein Blaubeermund im Neonlicht
dein Blaubeermund so viel verspricht
dein Blaubeermund so kühl und zart
mein Herz steht still an diesem Tag
dein leerer Blick im Neonlicht
durchbohrt mein hohles Hirn
heißer Schweiß der Begierde steht auf meiner Stirn
deine kalten Hände sind fahl wie das grau der Wände
in deiner Schönheit aus Eis
dein erstarrtes Antlitz so schneeweiß
deine Konturen scheinen so fest und rund
ich liebe deinen Blaubeermund


Dein Blaubeermund im Neonlicht
dein Blaubeermund so viel verspricht
dein Blaubeermund so kühl so zart
mein Herz steht still an diesem Tag


te amo bella inanitas
stella
te amo vanitas


Dein Blaubeermund im Neonlicht
dein Blaubeermund so viel verspricht
ich liebe diesen Duft der Süße
weiße Schilder an kalten Füssen
regungslos im Totenhaus
siehst du von allen am schönsten aus

ich gestehe...
verzeih mir....
ich streif das Tuch von dir...


te amo bella inanitas
stella
te amo vanitas


Dein Blaubeermund im Neonlicht
dein Blaubeermund so viel verspricht
dein Blaubeermund so kühl so zart
mein Herz steht still an diesem Tage

ohhh... ich liebe dich

    Well, here's what I hope is a decent English translation. I don't quite know what "Haus der verschiedenen" means. A mortuary, I assume. Also, I changed the wording a little bit to make it sound better in English.

    "Your blueberry mouth in neon light Your blueberry mouth promises so much Your blueberry mouth so cool so soft My heart stands still on this day

    I work in the mortuary She lies in rows of limbs Whether beautiful, ugly, young or old sometimes perhaps also hurt she is my lover, and will already soon begin to decompose by the work of the worms I have sensed you since your arrival The distance to you is so far Your aura has touched and seduced me; I delight in your smell In your gorgeous eyes shimmers cold neon light like the stars in heaven so cool, so pale, so plain

    Your blueberry mouth in neon light Your blueberry mouth promises so much Your blueberry mouth so cool so soft My heart stands still on this day

    Your empty gaze in neon light gores my brain hollow Hot sweat of desire is on my forehead Your cold hands are pale like the gray on the walls In your icy beauty your hard countenance, so snow white Your contours seem so firm and round I love your blueberry mouth

    Your blueberry mouth in neon light Your blueberry mouth promises so much Your blueberry mouth so cool so soft My heart stands still on this day

    Your blueberry mouth in neon light Your blueberry mouth promises so much I love this sweet aroma White signs on cold feet motionless in the place of the dead You look the most beautiful of all

    I admit... Forgive me... I strip the cloth off of you...

    Your blueberry mouth in neon light Your blueberry mouth promises so much Your blueberry mouth so cool so soft My heart stands still on this day

    oooh....I love you."

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
