Where Have You Gone Charming Billy
The author tries to make us sympathize with Private First Class Paul Berlin.The setting in the beginning is very dark and quiet.

He talks about pretending that he's not in war, which makes us feel bad for him.

This can be seen in the way the song always talks about them moaning and saying they work so hard. It shows how they were starting to speak out against the inequalities.
