Interpretation
The song 'Unsinn' by
01099 seems to be an intense declaration of love, but it is filled with uncertainties and mistakes. The singer describes a kind of nightly ritual where he waits for the beloved person while having 'wine and a lot of nonsense' in his bag. This could be a metaphor for being willing to have a carefree, perhaps even chaotic time.
Throughout the lyrics, it becomes clear that the singer has made mistakes in the past, such as not being there when the loved one needed him ('Wasn't there when you needed me'). Despite that, she still stands by him ('But still takes my hand'). This shows the image of a strong and forgiving love.
A central passage is 'How long do you still feel like walking with me?'. This line addresses an uncertainty that the singer has. He wonders how long the loved one will be willing to stay with him, despite the mistakes he has made.
The singer mentions that after an hour with the loved one, they are no longer 'two, but we'. This shows his longing for togetherness and unity, despite the uncertainties and mistakes he has made.
Finally, the song is concluded with the chorus where the singer waits again for the loved one to come to him, ready for 'a few rounds' of nonsense and adventure. The repetition of this chorus could be a kind of promise that he will always wait for her, no matter what happens.
