Grammar:
-
Mich nochmal umgedreht, Nein, ich pass hier nicht rein,
➔ Separable Verb: "umdrehen" in past participle form.
➔ The prefix "um-" is separated from the verb "drehen" in the past participle construction. "umgedreht" means "turned around." The speaker turned around again. The use of "nochmal" emphasizes that it's happening again.
-
Wie gewonnen, so zerronnen
➔ Correlative conjunctions: "Wie...so" (As...so). This is an idiomatic expression.
➔ The phrase is an idiom meaning "easy come, easy go". It uses the correlative conjunction "wie...so" to show a parallel between how easily something is gained and how easily it is lost.
-
Und ich weiß, dass ich eigentlich nichts weiß.
➔ Subjunctive Mood (Konjunktiv I or II) implied, although the indicative is used here for emphasis. Reported speech and indirect statements.
➔ This line is a reference to the famous quote by Socrates. The use of "weiß" twice creates emphasis. The implied meaning could be: "And I know that I *seemingly* know nothing," with "scheinen zu wissen" being the subjunctive alternative. However, the indicative reinforces the speaker's feeling of uncertainty.
-
Ich hab zum 1. mal gebetet, Für dein Herz, Und dein Leben, Dass es weiter schlägt.
➔ Subjunctive Mood (Konjunktiv I) - "dass es weiter schlägt" expresses an indirect wish/prayer. The verb "schlagen" is conjugated in Konjunktiv I.
➔ While Konjunktiv II could also be used, Konjunktiv I is common when expressing wishes. The sentence structure is also relatively simple. The structure "Dass + Subjunctive verb" follows from the speaker's implied prayer.
-
Ja ich kann heut verstehn, Wie es ist fast durchzudrehen.
➔ Indirect Question with "Wie". The subordinate clause "Wie es ist fast durchzudrehen" functions as the direct object of "verstehn".
➔ "Wie es ist" introduces an indirect question within the main sentence. "durchdrehen" means "to go crazy" or "to freak out". The whole clause describes the state of being close to losing one's mind, which the speaker now understands.
-
Wolln nich allein sein, suchen Trost, Doch es gibt eine die dir bleibt, Die bei dir bleibt, BEDINGUNGSLOS.
➔ Relative pronouns: "die" referring to "eine" (a person). The first "die" is nominative (subject), the second is also nominative.
➔ The relative clauses using "die" provide more information about the "eine" (one person) who remains unconditionally. The use of two consecutive relative clauses emphasizing loyalty and constancy. "BEDINGUNGSLOS" is an adverb meaning "unconditionally"
