Die Befindlichkeit Des Landes

Einstürzende Neubauten

Über dem narbengelände
Das langsam verschwindet
So nur phantomschmerz bleibt
Es dringt kaum hörbar ein fieses lachen
Aus der roten info-box
Und in den gräbern wird leise rotiert

Alles nur künftig ruinen
Material für die nächste schicht

Mela, mela, mela, mela, melancholia
Melancholia, mon cher
Mela, mela, mela, mela, melancholia
Schwebt über der neuen stadt
Und über dem land

Über den schaltzentralen
Über dem stoppelfeld aus beton
Über den heimlichen bunkeranlagen
Die nicht wegzukriegen sind
Marlene go home!
Auch über dem marlene-dietrich-platz

Die neuen tampel haben schon risse
Künftige ruinen
Einst wächst gras auch über diese stadt
Über ihrer letzten schicht

Mela, mela, mela, mela, melancholia
Melancholia, mon cher
Mela, mela, mela, mela, melancholia
Schwebt über der neuen stadt
Und über dem land

I'm zerschnittenen himmel
Von den jets zur übung zerflogen
Hängt sie mit ausgebreiteten schwingen
Ohne schlaf, und starren blicks
In richtung trümmer
Hinter ihr die zukunft aufgetürmt
Steigt sie langsam immer höher
Übersieht letztendlich das ganze land
Was ist die befindlichkeit des landes?
Was ist die befindlichkeit des landes?
Was ist die befindlichkeit des landes?
Was ist die befindlichkeit des landes?

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”
