Wer weiß das schonLetras, Traducción al Español y Significado

This song is essentially a portrait of someone trapped in a one-sided relationship with existence itself. The central theme is unrequited love for life, where the narrator genuinely wants to embrace the world but finds the world indifferent or actively hostile in return. Life kicks him, the sun burns rather than warms, and misfortune is the only loyal companion he has left. There is a bitter irony running through all of it, the kind Lindemann loves, where devotion is met with punishment and the things you love most are the things that hurt you worst.

The imagery is very physical and visceral in the way Lindemann typically works. A soul described as skinless, hope crawling out of flesh and blood, misfortune drinking his tears and feeding on his dreams. These are not abstract emotional complaints, they are bodily. Suffering has a texture and an appetite here. The recurring phrase "sieh dich an," meaning look at yourself, adds an unsettling layer, like a voice from outside pointing at the narrator with something between pity and contempt, though it could also be the narrator's own internal self-reckoning.

The emotional tone is one of exhausted resignation rather than rage. He runs, he tries to escape, but misfortune always catches up. There is no catharsis, no resolution, just the loop of trying and being dragged back down. It lands somewhere between classic German Romantic despair and dark gallows humor, which is very much Lindemann's territory. The final image of a future so dark that all days are without light wraps it up neatly as a worldview, not just a bad moment, but a permanent condition.
