Einsam und ängstlich irrst du durch die Nacht
Deine Gedanken drehen sich im Kreis
Dunkelheit legt sich auf deine Haut
Es führt kein Weg mehr zurück

Du trägst den Schmerz tief in deiner Seele
Eisige Kälte umklammert dein Herz
Der Glanz deiner Augen ist längst erloschen
Es ist Zeit für dich zu gehen

Noch in 1000 Jahren werd' ich bei dir sein
Mein Engelsblut verleiht uns die Macht
Für immer werden wir unsterblich sein
Nur du und ich auf dem Weg durch die Nacht

Kannst du die Sterne sehen
Sie leuchten nur für dich
Spürst du das Feuer in dir?
Du bist jetzt ein Kind der Nacht

Geniee die Lust und still deine Gier
Trage dein Schicksal mit Stolz
Engel der Ewigkeit
Es fhrt kein Weg zurck

Noch in 1000 Jahren werd' ich bei dir sein
Mein Engelsblut verleiht uns die Macht
Fr immer werden wir unsterblich sein
Nur du und ich auf dem Weg durch die Nacht.

    English Translation:

    Lonely and fearfully you wander the night. Your thoughts turn in a circle. Darkness falls on your skin. There is no way back.* You carry the pain deeply in your soul. Icy cold weather clasps your heart. The gloss of your eyes is long expired. It is time for you to be gone.

    In 1000 years I shall still be with you.** My angel blood Lends power to us. We will always be immortal, Only you and I on the way by the night.

    In 1000 years I shall still be with you.** My angel blood Lends power to us. We will always be immortal, Only you and I on the way by the night.

    You can see the stars, They shine only for you. Do you feel the fire in you? You are now a child of the night. Glut your lust, and quietly your greed.** Carry your fate with pride. Angel of eternity, There is no way back.

    In 1000 years I shall still be with you.** My angel blood Lends power to us. We will always be immortal, Only you and I on the way by the night.

    In 1000 years I shall still be with you.** My angel blood Lends power to us. We will always be immortal, Only you and I on the way by the night.

    Glut your lust, and quietly your greed.*** Carry your fate with pride. Angel of eternity.

    In 1000 years I shall still be with you.** My angel blood Lends power to us. We will always be immortal, Only you and I on the way by the night.

    In 1000 years I shall still be with you.** My angel blood Lends power to us. We will always be immortal, Only you and I on the way by the night.

    Literally: It leads back no more way. Literally: Still in 1000 years shall I with you it's. Literally: Gourmet the lust and quietly your greed Proper translation is more than literal word conversion.

    Clearly the one to whom the singer sings is mortal at first. He makes the subject into a vampire, then encourages the subject to embrace this new existence. One of many, many Blutengel vampire songs.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Cajun Girl
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”

Silent Planet
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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.
