Der Horst rennt
Jan Hegenberg Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spürst du den Boden beben?
Siehst du den Rauch am Horizont?
Kannst du den Kampfbock hören?
Das kann nur einer sein!
Dort kommt heran der wilde Horst
Atmet den Hauch des Todes!
Hasserfüllt und voller Wut
Will er nur eins:


Äh, ja … ja was will er jetzt eigentlich?
Ach, egal.

Der Horst rennt, er macht alles nieder.
Der Horst rennt, nichts kann ihm widerstehen.




Der Horst rennt, er singt seine Lieder.
Der Horst rennt und alles hinter ihm brennt.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Jan Hegenberg's song Der Horst rennt depict the arrival of a seemingly destructive force represented by a character named Horst. The first lines describe the physical manifestations of Horst's arrival - the ground shaking, smoke in the distance, and the sound of a battle cry. As Horst gets closer, the lyrics describe him as being filled with hate and determination, driven by a desire to do one thing - which the singer seems unable or unwilling to articulate.


The lyrics then shift to a description of Horst's actions, which are depicted as all-consuming and unstoppable. He is said to "make everything fall", with "nothing able to resist him". At the same time, the lyrics describe Horst as "singing his songs", while everything around him is burning. There is a sense of both power and destruction associated with Horst, who seems to be acting out some kind of primal urge or desire that is beyond the singer's comprehension.


Overall, the lyrics to Der Horst rennt can be interpreted as a commentary on the destructive power of a single individual or force, and the chaos and devastation that can result from unchecked aggression and violence. The character of Horst represents a kind of primal force that is both mesmerizing and terrifying, and the lyrics seem to suggest that there is something both appealing and deeply unsettling about this destructive power.
