April
Solarjet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In meiner Welt, in meinem Leben
In uns'rem SeinIn uns'ren Mäßen
So viel Schein, so wenig scheinen
Und ich hör Himmel weinen

Im April kann's schon mal regnen
Am selben Tag kann es Schnee geben
Ja unverhofft kommt oft

Diese Stadt ist nicht mein Heim
Wir gehen aus, dann geh'n wir ein
Wir brennen das Papier, was hinterlassen wird
Mein Lied soll ewig sein

Im April kann's schon mal regnen
Am selben Tag kann es Schnee geben
Ja unverhofft kommt oft
Ja ich komm vor, nicht nach dem Regen
So Hin und Her verkehrt

(Oh-o-Oh) (Oh-o-Oh) (Oh-o-Oh) (Oh-o-Oh)
(Oh-o-Oh)

Im April kann's schon mal regnen
Am selben Tag kann es Schnee geben
Ja unverhofft kommt oft





Unverhofft kommt oft

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Solarjet's song "April" reflect on the transience and unpredictability of life. The artist begins by describing their own world and life, which is characterized by appearances and superficiality - "so viel Schein, so wenig scheinen" ("so much shine, so little substance"). The artist then listens to the sound of the sky crying, a metaphor for the sadness and melancholy that can permeate existence.


The refrain - "Im April kann's schon mal regnen, am selben Tag kann es Schnee geben, ja unverhofft kommt oft" ("In April it can rain, on the same day it can snow, yes, unexpected things happen often") - highlights the unpredictability of life. April, a month associated with change and new beginnings, serves as a symbol for the constant flux that characterizes the human experience.


The last stanza describes a city that is not the artist's home, and their desire to leave it behind. They go out and come back in, burning the paper representing their past and striving for a legacy - "Mein Lied soll ewig sein" ("my song should be eternal"). The song ends with a repetition of the refrain, underscoring its message of the inevitability of change and the importance of staying open to unexpected possibilities.


Overall, Solarjet's "April" is a reflective and melancholy ballad that encourages listeners to embrace life's unpredictability and strive for a meaningful legacy.
