Zusammenfassung
Alone as a couple, a song that puts into words the longing for connection and the fear of loneliness. The lines flow like a silent conversation between two people who have lost each other but are still always present.
Fear of being alone, without the other person who was always there. The uncertainty as to whether the happiness that lay between them really belonged to them or whether it had secretly stolen away. The joy that once licked the wounds seems to have disappeared - as if nothing had ever happened.
And yet the question remains: why are they left in the shit? Why do they manipulate themselves every day to believe in what might be worthwhile? Maybe they are both a bit of an idiot who don't always understand the way life works.
Alone in pairs – a song that reminds us that we are often alone despite everything, even when there are two of us.
I was just afraid alone
to be without you.
to be without you.
I was just afraid alone
to be without you.
to be without you.
you were always there
to be without you.
was afraid alone
you were always there
was so scared alone
was afraid to be without you
and
lost
won
everything is so between us
melted
all the happiness
it took with it
it took with it
as if it had not been with us
as if it were not ours in life
as if it did not belong to us
something foreign
obtained by fraud and stolen
what would that have been?
what an I and you need
the joy that licks our wounds,
where did she go now
the joy that licks the wounds
and the whole thing makes sense
the joy that licks the wounds
as if nothing had ever happened
when did we stop twisting the world
Not everything was beautiful, most of it was dirt
we both often felt like that ourselves
and thought why doesn’t anyone make way for us
why are we left here in this shit
We had to sweat a lot to get here, fight
every day, every day manipulate like this
so that we think it will be worth it at some point
for a me and you
and an I and you and a we
but mostly we are alone
[Music]
alone in pairs
