Discover the story of the song > Script Of A Dead Poet – Alphaville

The protagonist is reflecting on his life while drinking cold coffee and looking back on his past. He has a torn sheet of paper on the table that represents his last written work. He doesn't know why he was writing or what it was for. He wonders if he wrote to make others understand him or to receive applause from them. He questions the purpose of his dark and ambitious dreams, and if they were just an attempt to prove his intelligence. He also considers how many people he may have hurt with his songs. The protagonist reflects on these thoughts and realizes that maybe he was wrong to strive for greatness and fame.
