Du Weisst Nicht Wie Das Ist Lyrics in English Luxuslärm

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Du Weisst Nicht Wie Das Ist by Luxuslärm from German to English.
Aaaah!
All the installments unpaid
Red numbers everywhere
You sit up there, rule the world
No matter if someone below falls!
But you, you don't know how it is
You don't know how it is
When you hit the ground
From 0 to 100 and back
And I, now I'm standing here with nothing
And don't know anymore what's up and what's down
You don't know what it's like
Get up early every morning
Pretend nothing happened
Drive to work and past it
Heard you're sorry
But you, you don't know how it is
You don't know how it is
When you hit the ground
From 0 to 100 and back
And I, now I'm standing here with nothing
And don't know anymore what's up and what's down
You don't know what it's like
Aaah yeah!
No, I don't belong anymore
You say you understand me
You of all people!
But you, you don't know how it is
You don't know how it is
When you hit the ground
From 0 to 100 and back
And I, now I'm standing here with nothing
And don't know anymore what's up and what's down
You don't know what it's like
You don't know what it's like
You don't know what it's like
When you hit the ground
From 0 to 100 and back
And I, now I'm standing here with nothing
And don't know anymore what's up and what's down
You don't know how it is

SONG MEANING

What if you could shout your frustrations straight at the people in power? “Du Weisst Nicht Wie Das Ist” is Luxuslärm’s fiery protest song that does exactly that. The singer has lost her job, the bills are piling up, and every morning she has to pretend everything is fine. Meanwhile, the person “up there” keeps running the show, blissfully ignorant of how it feels to hit rock bottom. With punchy lines like “von 0 auf 100 und zurück” (from 0 to 100 and back), the track captures that whiplash of sudden downfall and the anger that follows it.

Yet the song is not only about despair; it is a defiant wake-up call. Repeated cries of “Du weißt nicht, wie das ist” emphasize the gap between privileged comfort and everyday struggle, urging listeners to demand empathy and justice. By turning personal hardship into a stadium-ready anthem, Luxuslärm invites anyone who has ever felt overlooked to sing along, vent, and stand tall again.
