ertrunkenheit in der verschwommenheit
eines kurzen endlosen seins
kommt die apokalypse
oder bin ich doch nur besoffen
wenn ja so sind wir alle betroffen
wach ich oder trдum ich halbschlaf
verwirrtes grinsen ьberzieht mein mit magensaft getrдnktes gesicht

welches einem gleichnis дhnelt
was ich letztens sah

verwirrtheit trifft mich ab und zu
ich mag sie bekomme nie genug
verwirrtheit trifft mich ab und zu
andere lдЯt sie auch nicht in ruh

das licht auf der straЯe geht aus
zum ausgleich der helligkeit scheint die sonne die wonne eine pracht
allmдhlich beginne ich mich zu drehen
ich bin der punkt in diesem system
die mitte von der ich mein tun aus kontrollier

mir wird kalt ich erfriere oder wird mir warm
mir wird kalt ich erfriere es ist konfus

verwirrtheit trifft mich ab und zu
ich mag sie bekomme nie genug

verwirrtheit trifft mich ab und zu
andere lдЯt sie auch nicht in ruh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Konfuse Situation eines verwirrten Tages by Astra Kid describe a state of confusion and disorientation that the singer experiences. They feel like they are drowning in the blurriness of a short but endless existence, unsure whether they are encountering the apocalypse or just drunk. The confusion is so pervasive that it could affect everyone, and the singer is unable to tell if they are awake or dreaming.

The second verse references a vision the singer recently had, which is like a metaphor for their current state of mind. Despite the confusion, the singer enjoys the feeling of being bewildered and cannot get enough of it. However, they note that it also affects others and does not leave them in peace. As the lyrics progress, the singer becomes more aware of their place in the world and how they control their actions from the center of everything.

The overarching theme of the song seems to be the uncertainty and disorientation that can come from navigating life, but also the surreal beauty that can be found within it. The lyrics express a sense of awe and wonder at the world, even as it confuses and disorients the singer.
