2019
Guns fire bang, bang, bang in the darkness
Screams, cries, death lingers all around me
Soldiers crawl only armless and legless
There is no light, only the devil nears
Memories leave me, I stand up and fire
I crawl in ditches and holes, mud and blood
Dead men all around me breathe their last sigher
Tears of sadness, fury, drip in the mud
The devil is by my side all the way
I never wanted to be here they lied
I want to imagine my family with me and slip away
I have to keep going, the devil guides me
Bang! Someone shoots me, I fall down and lie
The sky is beautiful, I close my eyes
