This is a very specific question. Basically the lyrics seem to me very much like a light critique of reunification through a marriage metaphor (“you have asked me and I said nothing”, “do you want to be together until death do us apart? No!” And the whole “du hasst mich” thing), and also I think some band members are Easterners but I’ve had many Rammstein fan friends tell me it’s literally just about unhappy marriage.

Am I tripping here? Is there any evidence either for or against it? I find it hard to believe a song with such shallow theme could’ve become that famous, and it’s not like Rammstein is afraid of getting “political” given their other famous songs.
