Failure
I never knew anyone,
just ate and slept,
alone without anyone,
even a little close.
In the town below Avala
they all avoided me,
as if I were a leper,
how many zeros does love have?
Took a doctor's failure,
then wrote a report:
Brain almost imperceptible,
complete idiot,
retarded, stunted,
he really messed up,
and developmentally delayed,
school example - a cretin child.
Like depleted uranium,
I was a complete failure,
doomed to defeat,
lonely and estranged.
I wandered like a deaf dog
and came to the conclusion:
This reality is harsh
when you have no popularity.
Took a doctor's failure,......
I'm neither handsome nor ugly,
but I'm well armed.
I shot because I'm afraid
that they think I don't exist.
From the roof of Beogradjanka
at citizens and city dwellers
like all mass murderers,
I shot randomly.
Took a doctor's failure,......
About twenty killed,
the last bullet fired.
I threw the empty gun
and sought a death sentence.
I reached the newspapers,
the prison, Kovin.
They have no more urgent tasks,
they treat me, a healthy one, there.
Took a doctor's failure,......
