Kalberg and Molijn have been contributing to the international dance scene for over twenty years, with award-winning and platinum-selling hits for dance acts such as Alice Deejay, Vengaboys, Candee Jay, Pronti and Kalmani and Solid Sessions. Their track "Better Off Alone" was one of the first trance records that became big in the U.S. and was later sampled by French superstar DJ David Guetta in his song "Play Hard" and one of America's biggest rappers Wiz Khalifa in his breakthrough record "Say Yeah". They also had worked together with DJ Sander Kleinenberg on classic tracks like "This Is Miami" and "The Fruit" and remixes for major artists such as Justin Timberlake ('Rock Your Body' Remix winning the award for 'Best Remix' at the Dance Star USA Awards), Janet Jackson, BT, Usher, N.E.R.D., Lenny Kravitz, Junkie XL, Röyksopp, Mylo and Annie Lennox.
On 18 June 2018, Sutorius announced his split from Dash Berlin while severing ties with Kalberg and Molijn, alleging mismanagement and career neglect issues. Beginning October 2018, Sutorius has been performing and releasing songs credited under his own name, while Dash Berlin continued as a duo. Sutorius later gained Legal ownership of the name on 21 June 2019 while Kalberg and Molijn were forced out from Dash Berlin to pursue their own musical projects.
On 29 March 2021, Sutorius announced on his Facebook page that he would onwards perform, produce and release music under his own name "Jeffrey Sutorius". The announcement came after he had lost a legal dispute with the former members of the group who has since 17 March 2021 been the legal owners of the Dash Berlin trademark.
Man On The Run
Dash Berlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And stole my heart
Made me a fool right from the start
Wouldn't have been so bad except
This little plan it fell apart
If I were you
I'd dare not speak
In hopes of seeing tomorrow
It's such a travesty
The way you say our love should be
Yeah, such a tragedy
Think you can just break my heart and leave me
Well, you better run now
Man on the run
Playing for fun
Wind me up
Leave me undone
These lips are sealed I'll never speak
Your name in loving memory
So don't you try to make amends
That's what you gain for playing me
If I were you
I'd dare not speak
I'd run like hell
In hopes of seeing tomorrow
Break my heart and leave me now
Man on the run
It's such a travesty
The way you say our love should be
Yeah, such a tragedy
Think you can just break my heart and leave me
Well, you better run now
Man on the run
Playing for fun
Wind me up
Leave me undone

Line by Line Meaning
You stole a kiss
You took advantage of my affection
And stole my heart
You made me fall in love with you
Made me a fool right from the start
You tricked me and made me look foolish
Wouldn't have been so bad except
It wouldn't have hurt so much if not for the fact that
This little plan it fell apart
Your scheme didn't work out like you wanted it to
If I were you
If I were in your position
I'd dare not speak
I wouldn't even speak
I'd run like hell
I would run away as fast as possible
In hopes of seeing tomorrow
In the hopes of making it out alive
It's such a travesty
It's a terrible thing
The way you say our love should be
The way you describe our relationship
Yeah, such a tragedy
It's such a sad situation
Think you can just break my heart and leave me
Do you really believe you can hurt me and then just walk away?
Well, you better run now
You should start running right now
Man on the run
A person who is fleeing
Playing for fun
You're doing this all just for your own amusement
Wind me up
You've gotten me all wound up
Leave me undone
You're leaving me in a state of emotional turmoil
These lips are sealed I'll never speak
I'll never reveal your identity or secret
Your name in loving memory
I'll remember you, but not in a positive way
So don't you try to make amends
You shouldn't even try to apologize or make things right
That's what you gain for playing me
You get what you deserve for toying with my emotions
Break my heart and leave me now
You shattered my heart and now you're leaving
