Tunnelblick
Anomalie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
am Ende des Tunnels gefunden zu haben?
Und es stellte sich bloß
als ein weiteres Scheinwerferlicht heraus
das mich geblendet und wieder weg vom Weg gebracht hat.
Ich taumle weiter versuche das Gefühl
in meiner Brust zu ignorieren.
die mir wie ein Ungeborenes
gegen die Stirn tritt:
Veränderung
der immer währende Kampf
zwischen weiter so und Neuanfang.
Die Angst vor dem ersten
dem entscheidenden Schritt.
Dem Sprung ins Nichts - in Leere Dunkle.
Die Angst vor dem Aufschlag in der Realität.
Dies ist meine Angst
es könnte deine sein.
Bin ich bereit Stagnation
durch Herausforderung zu ersetzen?
Vorhersehbarkeit gegen
Unvorhersehbarkeit einzutauschen.
Bin ich bereit?
The lyrics of Tunnelblick by Anomalie describe the struggle of finding one's way through life and making decisions that will lead to change. The singer speaks of experiencing moments where they believed they had found the light at the end of the tunnel, only to realize it was just another blinding spotlight that drove them off course. Despite this setback, the singer continues forward, trying to ignore the feeling in their chest and the voice in their head telling them to embrace change. The lyrics describe a constant battle between wanting to keep going as they have been and wanting to take a new path, with a fear of taking the first step into the unknown.
The singer describes the apprehension of taking the leap into the new and unknown and the possibility of falling flat on one's face in the real world. This fear is something that the artist seems to share with their listeners, as they acknowledge that their fear could be someone else's as well. They question whether they are prepared to exchange predictability for unpredictability and to move away from stagnation, which the singer seems to suggest will bring about change and renewal.
Overall, Tunnelblick is a song about the difficulty of making tough decisions that will lead to personal growth, and the fear and uncertainty that can accompany such choices. The lyrics encourage listeners to consider whether they are ready to face these challenges, and to embrace change as it comes.
