| Another tale of tragedy
|
| He made the choice to end his life
|
| So it is written, passionately
|
| This soldier’s fervent wish for suicide
|
| His soul torn asunder by the horrors of war
|
| One carrying so much death will soon care for life no more
|
| On the first day the soldier would quietly retreat to shoot himself through the
|
| head not far from his infantry
|
| «I can hear footsteps
|
| Someone’s coming near. |
| Fuck! |
| Should I stay? |
| Disappear?
|
| 'Es ist mein bester freund
|
| Diesem soldat ist immer für mich da.'
|
| Quickly I put my luger away
|
| I thought this was my last day but I failed!»
|
| «Bitte tötet mich! |
| Bitte töte mich!»
|
| On the second day, he opened his eyes
|
| Consumed by sadness he thought
|
| «Today is the day I die!
|
| I will take my life with the rope, a bullet, or maybe the knife.»
|
| So depressed, so empty
|
| Wandering, hopeless, searching for death
|
| His soul feels so old and so cold
|
| The only desire left is his yearning for death
|
| He stumbled across an old farmstead and entered this wooden shack!
|
| There he found a rope and the guts to jump and hang with a broken neck
|
| The second he tightened the slipknot, the barn door flew open
|
| This time he was caught by a farmer who grabbed his legs to lift and hold him
|
| high
|
| The soldier kicking and screaming
|
| «You bastard! |
| let me hang and die!»
|
| In this struggle, the soldier went mad
|
| After the rope snapped. |
| He pulled the knife and, nine times in the stomach,
|
| the farmer was dead
|
| «Bitte töte mich!»
|
| On the third day, there was a firefight
|
| This bloody assault would last until midnight
|
| Another opportunity for our soldier who craves for suicide
|
| With open arms into the line of fire, he asked for death
|
| But then he watched his friend, who is trying to prevent him from killing
|
| himself again, die for his own determined suicide
|
| Here comes the part where he sticks the luger into his mouth
|
| He was shot twice in the spine from behind, then blows half his face all over
|
| the ground
|
| «Ha ha!»
|
| Not dead yet but completely fucking paralyzed, kept alive in his hell for two
|
| long years before he finally dies |
