Lyrics:
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 succeed
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 are back with a different song

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 give you a different song
Okay, okay, okay, okay – The difference is in the song
Okay, okay, okay, okay – Difference makes the song

We didn’t die
