Dann bin das ich
Dann bin das ich
Dann bin das ich
Dann bin das ich

Wenn irgendwer auf dieser welt
Bis zum ende zu dir hlt

Wenn irgendwer auf dieser welt
Dir niemals in den rcken fllt
Wenn irgendwer auf dieser welt
Niemals dein geheimniss erzhlt
Wenn irgendwer auf dieser welt
Sich immer zu dir stellt

Wenn irgendwer auf dem Planet
Dich um keiner preis vert
Wenn irgendwer auf dem Planet
Fr immer zu dir steht
Wenn irgendwer auf dem Planet
Bis zum ende mit dir geht
Wenn irgendwer auf dem Planet
Nur um deinetwillen lebt

Wenn irgendjemand der dich kennt
Jetzt in den seilen hngt
Wenn irgendjemand der dich kennt
Wegen dir nachts nicht mehr pennt
Wenn irgendjemand der dich kennt
Jetzt in sein verderben rennt
Wenn irgendjemand jetzt anfngt

Dich zu hassen weil du ihn gekrnkt
Hast

Overall Meaning

The chorus of Glashaus's song "Dann bin das ich" repeats the phrase "Then it's me" four times, implying a sense of self-discovery or coming into one's own. The verses describe various scenarios in which someone is loyal, honest, and supportive to the point of sacrificing their own well-being for the person they care about. These scenarios range from someone sticking by the singer through thick and thin without gossiping about them, to someone devoting their entire existence to the singer's happiness. The final verse introduces a note of tension, as the singer imagines someone who used to be a friend turning against them because they were hurt by the singer's actions.

Overall, the song seems to be a meditation on the importance of loyalty and authenticity in relationships, and how rare and valuable it is to find people who truly have your back.
