D'Red
Sophie Hunger Lyrics

The lyrics of Sophie Hunger's song D'Red convey a sense of introspection, contemplation and uncertainty. The opening verse "I ha aui Prognose, U kennä ke Affäkt, I bruche dini Rose, Aber ha so viu Respäkt" roughly translates to "I have all the predictions but no effect, I need your rose but I have so much respect". These lines suggest that the singer has all the information about what's going on but lacks the ability to make a meaningful impact, necessitating the need for something beautiful and calming, notably a rose, to soothe their worries.

The second verse then talks about a sailor who is always looking for something new, which he hopes will cure his ennui. Though it's not clear why this is important, it suggests that the singer is searching for meaning or novelty, something harder to achieve than they had assumed. The chorus "I ha gar nüt z'säge hie, Drum frag etzt nüme na, I ha gar nüt z'sage hie, O wenn du meinsch das i das cha," continually reiterates that the singer does not have much to say, even if it's asked of them. There is one more verse, further reinforcing the idea that the singer is searching for something and struggling with what they should say, yet they still have nothing concrete.

Overall, the song appears to be about uncertainty, searching, a sense of the transitional nature of things, and fearing that one may not have much to show even though they have all the potential. It's a song about the struggle to be oneself, even if one doesn't know who that is yet.
