Die Beiden
Industrial metal with operatic baritone vocals. Distorted electric guitars play palm-muted chugging riffs in 4/4 time at 120 BPM. A synthesized bass follows the guitar rhythm with a gritty, overdriven tone. The drum kit features a heavy, compressed kick and a sharp snare with industrial percussion layers. Orchestral strings and brass stabs provide cinematic accents during transitions. The lead vocals are delivered in a dramatic, theatrical German baritone style with significant chest resonance. Synthesizer leads use a sawtooth waveform with a short decay for rhythmic sequences. The arrangement alternates between dense, high-gain guitar sections and stripped-back industrial grooves.

Lyrics
Verse 1
Sie trug den Becher in der Hand
- Ihr Kinn und Mund glich seinem Rand -,
So leicht und sicher war ihr Gang,
Kein Tropfen aus dem Becher sprang.
Verse 2
So leicht und fest war seine Hand:
Er ritt auf einem jungen Pferde,
Und mit nachlässiger Gebärde
Erzwang er, daß es zitternd stand.
Verse 3
Jedoch, wenn er aus ihrer Hand
Den leichten Becher nehmen sollte,
So war es beiden allzu schwer:
Denn beide bebten sie so sehr,
Daß keine Hand die andre fand
Und dunkler Wein am Boden rollte.
Chorus
So sicher allein,
so zitternd zu zweit.
Outro
So zitternd zu zweit.
So zitternd zu zweit.
So zitternd zu zweit.
