Kein Sommer der Liebe
Terrorgruppe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Da draußen, da tobt eine Schlacht
Da draußen die bedrohn mein Leben
Der Kiez, der hat längst aufgegeben
Nur zum Einkauf vor die Tür
Sonst in Angst alleine hier
Draußen Schreie, Schießerein
Leute rennen vor der Polizei
Kein Sommer der Liebe
The song "Kein Sommer der Liebe" by Terrorgruppe speaks about the violence and danger that exists outside during the night. The lyrics express the fear of leaving the house when a fight is happening, when the neighborhood is no longer safe, and when people are running away from the police. The singer of the song decides to stay home, only venturing out for essential tasks like grocery shopping, but otherwise living in constant fear. The lyrics encapsulate a sense of hopelessness and resignation to the situation, acknowledging that this is not a summer of love.
Terrorgruppe is a German punk rock band that formed in 1993, and they are known for their fast and energetic music that often combines humor with social and political commentary. "Kein Sommer der Liebe" was released in 2009 as part of their album "Tiergarten," which included a number of songs that deal with issues such as violence, identity, and the environment. The song's title is a reference to the summer of love in 1967, a cultural movement in San Francisco that celebrated peace, love, and non-violence through music, art, and political activism. The lyrics of "Kein Sommer der Liebe," however, suggest that the opposite is true, and that love and peace are absent, replaced by fear and violence.
