The first demo-tape "Nostalgische Atavismen" sold more than 500 copies in the worldwide underground, slowly spreading the news that "Samsas Traum" someday might become more than a very strange little band with even stranger german vocals. After recording and releasing two more demo- and promo-tapes, the band signed their record deal with "Trisol Music Group Germany" (London After Midnight, Sopor Aeternus, L'âme Immortelle) on the 1st of march 1999, exactly three years after the bands foundation. The chief-manager of "Trisol" got to know about "Samsas Traum" randomly; he was phoning "Orkus Magazine" concerning adverts, and the person in charge listened to the bands' latest promo-release while talking to him.
Vergiss' mich nicht
Samsas Traum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
meine Qual
Du trägst mich fort die Liebe
lässt mir keine Wahl
Hörst du nicht die Gespenster
die wie Regentropfen draußen
leise an unser Fenster klopfen
Refrain:
Hey
Der Wind weht stärker Tag für Tag
in mein Gesicht
Ich steh am Abgrund meines Lebens
vergiss mich nicht
Vergiss mich nicht
Vergiss mich nicht
Du bist der Sturm
der tief in meinem Herzen weht
Doch für die Rettung ist es
lange schon zu spät
Der Wind weht stärker Tag für Tag
in mein Gesicht
Ich steh am Abgrund meines Lebens
vergiss mich nicht
Der Wind weht stärker Tag für Tag
in mein Gesicht
Ich steh am Abgrund meines Lebens
vergiss mich nicht
Vergiss mich nicht
Vergiss mich nicht

The singer describes their suffering in cold nights, when they are tormented by the gaze of their beloved. The person they love carries them away, but they feel trapped and unable to resist. The lyrics suggest a sense of powerlessness, as the singer is haunted by ghosts and feels like they are standing at the edge of their life.
The chorus repeats the plea "vergiss mich nicht", which means "don't forget me". This is a desperate cry for the person they love to stay with them and not abandon them in their torment. They describe the wind blowing in their face, indicating a struggle against external forces as well as internal turmoil. The song ends with another plea to be remembered, underscoring the fear of being abandoned and forgotten.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of intense emotional pain and desire for connection. The singer is consumed by their love for someone who they feel is slipping away from them. It's a dark and haunting song that captures the feeling of being lost in one's own emotions.
