Mit jeder Welle kam ein Traum
Träume gehen vorüber
Dein Brett ist verstaubt
Deine Zweifel schäumen über
Hast dein Leben lang gewartet
Hast gehofft, dass es sie gibt
Hast den Glauben fast verloren
Hast dich nicht vom Fleck bewegt

Jetzt kommt sie langsam auf dich zu
Das Wasser schlägt dir ins Gesicht
Siehst dein Leben wie ein Film
Du kannst nicht glauben, dass sie bricht

Das ist die perfekte Welle
Das ist der perfekte Tag
Lass dich einfach von ihr tragen
Denk am besten gar nicht nach

Das ist die perfekte Welle
Das ist der perfekte Tag
Es gibt mehr als du weißt
Es gibt mehr als du sagst

Deine Hände sind schon taub
Hast Salz in deinen Augen
Zwischen Tränen und Staub
Fällt es schwer noch dran zu glauben
Hast dein Leben lang gewartet
Hast die Wellen nie gezählt
Das ist alles nicht gewollt
Hast viel zu schnell gelebt

Jetzt kommt sie langsam auf dich zu
Das Wasser schlägt dir ins Gesicht
Siehst dein Leben wie ein Film
Du kannst nicht glauben, dass sie bricht

Das ist die perfekte Welle
Das ist der perfekte Tag
Lass dich einfach von ihr tragen
Denk am besten gar nicht nach

Das ist die perfekte Welle
Das ist der perfekte Tag
Es gibt mehr als du weißt
Es gibt mehr als du sagst

Du stellst dich in den Sturm und schreist
Ich bin hier ich bin frei
Alles was ich will ist Zeit
Ich bin hier ich bin frei
Du stellst dich in den Sturm und schreist
Ich bin hier ich bin frei
Ich bin hier ich bin frei

Das ist die perfekte Welle

Das ist die perfekte Welle
Das ist der perfekte Tag
Lass dich einfach von ihr tragen
Denk am besten gar nicht nach

Das ist die perfekte Welle
Das ist der perfekte Tag
Es gibt mehr als du weißt
Es gibt mehr als du sagst

Das ist die perfekte Welle
Das ist der perfekte Tag dafür

Das ist die perfekte Welle
Das ist der perfekte Tag

    In English: With every wave came a dream, But dreams pass, Your plank is dusty, Your doubts boil over, You've waited your whole life, Hoped that they are there, You almost lost your faith, Have not moved from the stain, Now it slowly approaches you - The water beats/slaps you in the face, You see your life like a movie - You can't believe that it's breaking,

    This is the perfect wave - This is the perfect day, Simply let yourself be carried by it, Don't think the best at all, This is the perfect wave - This is the perfect day, There is more than you think - There is more than you say,

    Your hands are already numb, You have salt in your eyes, Between tears and dust, It's still hard to believe in it, You've waited your whole life, You haven't counted the waves, You haven't wanted anything, You've lived much too fast,

    You surrender in the storm and cry: I am here - I am free, All that I want is time - I am here - I am free,

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Album art
No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Album art
Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Album art
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
