Hello! This song is about the Berlin Wall. Look at the album artwork. November elf-fle, 1989. What happened on that day? Elf obviously 11 in German which is the language spoken in Berlin. The first parts are about West Germany:Freedom has arrived, Promises lit up the night, I dreamed "East Germany" had left my side, even though you needed me it was clear i could not do a thing for you.
2nd half is about East Germany:"All the people killed trying to cross the wall" cannot be undone, "East Germany, West Germany, USA, Britain and Russia" wash their bloodied hands of loyalty of history in shades of grey. I turned and I looked at you and all but "hatred against your country" slipped away[cause we are one]. |
