Allein in der Masse
Untergangskommando Lyrics

The lyrics of Untergangskommando's song Allein in der Masse express the feelings of loss and sorrow after the death of a loved one due to addiction. The first verse paints a picture of time slipping away, comparing it to sand slipping through the fingers. The loss of the loved one is felt deeply, as they were dearly loved, but their heart was guarded by a wall, possibly referring to their addiction. The addiction got the best of them, and they fell over the edge, losing the battle. The chorus expresses the hope that the loved one is in a better place, a place that nobody knows of, but it is hoped that they enjoy it there, as they truly deserved it.

The second verse remembers the qualities of the loved one, who was able to accomplish great things, and rarely said no. However, it is also mentioned that their coolness was only an act. The addiction that led to their downfall was not the real thing, as it could not bring true joy. The chorus again expresses the hope that the loved one is in a better place, and the thoughts travel with the wind, towards their unknown kingdom. The final verses are a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the hope that the loved one deserves the peace they have found.
