Lyrics
A view of the sea
(Music : D.ADAM / Words : K. TINBERGEN - D.ADAM)

This is where I grew up
This is where I live
And I don't want this place to vanish
under towers of concrete
Here in my hometown
We don't make false claims
We don't glorify those who waged wars
to further their names
Your leaders speak lies
All we want is a view of the sea
All we need is a place where we can breathe
All we have is rooted in these age-old trees
So don't step on the soil where our fathers sowed the seed
I don't have faith
In your crucified god
And where you raised cathedrals I see rivers of blood
I know bad things are comin'
I can hear the storm
Religious sons marching in holy uniforms
With greed in their eyes
All I wanted is a view of the sea
All I needed is a place where I could breathe
All I had is rooted in these age-old trees
But you stepped on the soil where my father sowed the seed
This is where I live
This is where I'll die
Behind the walls you built to muffle our cries
... for a view of the sea
... for a view of the sea
