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
