Discover the story of the song > Erinnern – Herrenmagazin

The lyrics talk about a person who admits to being a contradiction and is consumed by doubts and fears, which blind them. There is a sign on his apartment door that says "you won't come out alive," but in the end, they could be the best version of themselves despite their flaws. The person they are talking to, their romantic partner, won't remember this, and that's what brings them down. The lyrics also mention that age doesn't matter because we are all the same and always in a critical state of mind. The protagonist mentions how they will be missed when they are gone and how far they have come with their empty souls. They also mention that those who fall want to lie down, and those who lie down don't chase anything. They end by saying that they wake up again without their partner, holding a can, and they write off the last evening, spitting shards against the wall, feeling weighed down.
