Discover the story of the song > Damit Ich Schlafen Kann – Adam Angst

The lyrics talk about the protagonist's partner who tells them about their plans and how they have so much to do. The protagonist is supportive and encourages their partner to pursue their dreams, even if it means going to Japan or doing something with engines. The protagonist's partner is sad when they say they have to leave, but the protagonist believes that their relationship can withstand the distance. The protagonist hides their own struggles and feelings from their partner, putting on a facade of perfection. Their biggest motivation to get up in the morning is their own personal project. The protagonist feels overwhelmed and invisible, and just wants to be able to sleep. Their partner tries to offer advice and support, sharing their own experience with burnout. The protagonist feels that their partner is not being fair by not noticing their own struggles anymore.
