"Meiwes told the court, repeating much of his testimony from his first trial, that he had severed Brandes's penis at his request and that both had tried to eat it, without success.
Brandes steadily lost more blood and finally dropped unconscious, at which point Meiwes said he decided to pray.
"I didn't know whether I should pray to the devil or to God," said Meiwes, who appeared relaxed and eager to tell his version of events.
Believing his victim to be dead, he said, he plunged a knife into his neck. Only when he later saw his videotape of the crime did he realize that Brandes had still been faintly breathing."
This would explain the last verse perfectly, I think...Also, it was reported that Meiwes was ignored by his father during childhood, and yearned for a younger brother to eat, thus bonding the two together. This sense of loneliness perfectly fits the last verse...Brilliant song, and one can tell Rammstein certainly did their homework on this one. ^-^
