How Did I Die?

I was in a crater Pockmarked fields on either side I was meant to be all safe How did I die? How did I die? Or didn’t I? Un sursaut, une crispation Mon corps soudain Comme voulant s’engloutir Dans la terre How did I die? How did I die? Or didn’t I? Didn’t I die at all? I fell into a ditch Inside an A7V On the end facing Mephisto is it’s name How did I die? How did I die? Or didn’t I? Ein schwarzes Biest Ein Splitterregen Über den Bäumen zerspringt Und niedergeht How did I die? How did I die? Or didn’t I? Didn’t I die at all? Now there is only that sinister brown belt A strip of murdered Nature. It seems to belong to another world. Every sign of humanity has been swept away. The woods and roads have vanished like chalk wiped from a board; of the villages nothing remains but gray smears where stone walls have tumbled together. A confused mass of troubled earth. Columns of muddy smoke spurt up continually as high explosives tear deeper into this ulcered area How did I die? I fell from the sky Or didn’t I? I filled my mouth with water So the bullet could suceed How did I die? How did I die? Did I die by my own hand? Or didn’t I? How did I die? Or didn’t I die at all? How did we die? Or didn’t we? Didn’t we die at all? We didn’t die We didn’t die We are back with a different song We didn’t die We didn’t die We’re just singing a different song We are back with a change of weather Ein anderer Wind, ein neues Lied We didn’t die We didn’t die We give you a different song Okookookookooskrookookookookoo The difference is in the song Okookookookooskrookookookookoo – difference makes the song We didn’t die We didn’t die We didn’t die We didn’t die
