Ein Jahr (Es geht voran)

The lyrics present a world where events keep accelerating, but “progress” does not feel clearly hopeful. The repeated claim that things are moving forward sits beside images of disasters, forgetting, and strange political change. This creates a tense, possibly ironic mood: history is happening at speed, yet it is hard to tell whether anyone is guiding it or whether the results are good.

“Keine Atempause” means there is no pause for breath, suggesting relentless pressure or change. “Geschichte wird gemacht” can sound like a bold announcement that important events are unfolding, but the surrounding lines make that announcement feel uneasy. The image of “space labs” falling onto islands is surreal and may suggest technology or grand plans crashing into ordinary places. “Berge explodieren” is another extreme image of upheaval, while blaming the president points toward political responsibility. “B-film heroes” usually means characters from low-budget, often implausible movies; their soon ruling the world hints at absurd or unqualified leaders.

The repeated “Das geht voran!” may be sincere, sarcastic, or both. It could echo a confident slogan while exposing how empty such confidence sounds amid chaos. The lyrics do not explain exactly what the events refer to, so the images may be warnings, satire, or intentionally disjointed snapshots of a troubled future.
