Dieses Leben

Juli

Mir is' kalt
Mein Weg is' leer
Diese Nacht ist grau und kalt und schwer
Sie hält mich fest
Und gibt mich nicht mehr her
Ich bin gefangen
Ich wach' nich' auf
Und die letzten Lichter gehen bald aus
Ich seh' mich fallen
Doch ich geb' nicht auf

Denn ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in den man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese Welt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese Welt

Ich liebe dieses Leben

Nimm mir die Kraft
Nimm mir das Herz
Nimm mir alle Hoffnung
Und all den Schmerz
Aus meiner Hand
Und gib sie nich' mehr her
Was soll das sein
Wo soll ich hin
Wo sind meine großen Helden hin
Auch wenn wir gehen
Weiß ich nich' wohin

Ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in den man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese Welt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese Welt

Aaah
Aaah
Aaah
Aaah
Aaah
Aaah

De de de de de de aah
De de de de de de aah
De de de de de de aah

Weiß ich nich' wohin auch wenn es geht
Weiß ich nich' wohin auch wenn es geht
Weiß ich nich' wohin auch wenn es geht
Wenn es geht

Doch ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese Welt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Ich liebe den Moment in dem man fällt
Ich liebe dieses Leben
Und ich liebe diesen Tag
Und ich liebe diese Welt

Oh de de de de de aah
De de de de de de aah
De de de de de de aah

    Oh, ach ja, also ich denke es geht in dem Lied um folgendes: Jemand ist so ziemlich am Ende seines Lebens merkt bzw. weiß aber dass er/sie dieses Leben liebt und eigentlich noch nicht gehen will. Im Video sieht es ja sogar so aus als ob Eva sich schon vom Haus gestürzt und unten dann merkt dass sie eigentlich weiterleben möchte und dann läuft halt eben alles wieder rückwärts, weil sie es gerne ungeschehen sehen will. Das ist meine Meinung über die Bedeutung des Songs.

    Hier noch mal auf English: I think the song is about someone, whose life is near to an end, but this person now knows that he/she loves this life. The video also shows the singer, Eva, who probably has jumped from a rooftop, and she is flying from the floor back to the rooftop, so it looks as if she wants to make her "suicide" unhappen, because she loves her life.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.

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.
