Abwärts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sie komm′n nach Haus
Auto fährt
Sie komm'n nach Haus
Auto hält
Sie komm′n nach Haus
Fernseh'n an
Sie komm'n nach Haus
Sie sind zu Haus
Licht geht aus
Sie sind zu Haus
Sie sind zu Haus
Sind zu Haus
Sie sind zu Haus
Zu Hau-au-au-s
The lyrics to Abwärts's song "Nach Haus" depict a simple and repetitive scene of individuals returning home. The song starts with the repetition of "Licht geht an" (lights go on) and "Sie komm′n nach Haus" (they come home), emphasizing the beginning of this mundane routine. The following lines describe the arrival home, with the car stopping and the TV being turned on. The repetition of "Sie komm'n nach Haus" further emphasizes the return, creating a sense of familiarity and routine.
As the song progresses, the lights going out symbolize the individuals being at home. The repetition of "Sie sind zu Haus" (they are at home) cements this idea, reinforcing the notion of finding comfort and sanctuary in one's own house. The final repetition of "Sie sind zu Haus" and the elongation of the word "Zu Hau-au-au-s" adds a somewhat eerie or haunting tone to the song, contrasting with the repetitive and simplistic nature of the lyrics.
Overall, "Nach Haus" conveys the cyclical nature of everyday life, capturing the essence of returning home after a day away. It explores the notion of the home as a place of refuge and familiarity, while also hinting at a certain sense of restlessness or unease.
