Before I Go
And One Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
other life, the stars, the planets,
the eternal wonders of space and time"
I make a promise
I will take you with me, if you want to
just letting me know
What you wanna wait for?
One way mission to the dark side of Mars,
It will end there
Just letting you know,
What I gonna die for
Live on TV, daily back on your screen
No transmission
They letting you know,
This will be the last show
Oh no, life in slow-mo once more
This time it's my last sign for sure
Before I go, before I go
It's time to let you people know
I know my planted flower will grow
If mankind follows me to space
A red rose helps to find my place
Before I go, before I go
"the eternal wonders of space and time"
es war ein großer schritt für die menschheit
doch leider nicht für mich
alles, was mir blieb war dein gesicht
du solltest sie seh'n - sie tanzt genauso schön wie du
über kaltes, rotes land
deine rose, geboren im sand
Oh no, life in slow-mo...
The lyrics in this excerpt from And One's "Before I go" touch on themes of space travel and exploration. The first few lines speak of "far away dreams and mysteries" related to "the stars, the planets," and the "eternal wonders of space and time." The next lines present a promise to bring someone along on a "one way mission to the dark side of Mars." The lyrics then shift to a scene of a final television broadcast before the singer's death, and they speak of leaving behind a "planted flower" that will grow if mankind follows them to space.
Overall, the lyrics suggest a desire to explore the unknown and push boundaries, even if it means making sacrifices. The promise to take someone on a one-way mission to Mars may represent a desire to share this experience with another person, even if it means they won't be able to return. The idea of leaving behind a "planted flower" that symbolizes hope for the future suggests a belief in the importance of space exploration and its potential benefits for humanity.

You say Never make sence, but that not the case. There are enough instances where they make perfect sence. Out the top of my head:
- Strafbomber is about the Hamburg firestorm in WW2,
-Second Front is about the brutal Eastern front that Germany fought in WW2,
-Traumfrau is about narrsistic relationship,
-Steine sind Steine is about the Wall,
-Life is not easy in Germany is about living in germany behind the iron curtain,
-Take some more is about being medicated to a extreme level,
- Body Nerv is about multimedia addiction i believe.
Some might be not be correct, we should ask Steve I guess, but some are really impossible to interpet differently (like Strafbomber for example who is very implicit).

And one lyrics never make sense, and I fucking love it. They're the Beck of synth.

Yl.S.
If you don't understand lyrics and what Steve's meant . It not an argument , check All stuff since they began. 😉🖤
Yl.S.
@Emperor Atlantis Artist means more than it seems by the words and imagination. One nice and famous German musician always explained his songs for years. Honestly I was surprised sometimes... because not all that looked obviously it was Really what he meant. Deep meaning. He always explain himself ! Stop do that. About Steve. He should not give a f..ck to what people think , so I love it a lot if he is the same. Self confidence. Also fans can be so disgusting , ignore them. Steve does it , cool .
