Interpretation
The lyrics of the song 'Es könnt' ein Anfang sein' by
Rosenstolz are about a person trapped in grief and loneliness. The singer sees how the other person remains in their sadness and does not open up. The person is stubborn and has doubts that kill their imagination and paralyze their curiosity. They have no more hope and are estranged from the world. The soul cannot find words anymore and no one can help them, they have to find their own way.
The lyrics express the hope that this state could be a beginning if the person only had the courage to open up. It could be love, but the person does not awaken from their lethargy. Doubts and lack of curiosity prevent something new from starting.
The lines 'Es könnt' ein Anfang sein, wenn du dich traust' suggest that there is a possibility to break free from sadness and start something new if the person only finds the courage to do so. It is about bringing about the change oneself to come out of the darkness and find love and happiness.
