Lyrics

Ruin comes to beauty, almost inevitably
And now this I see right here at home
 
In the U.S.A things get worse each day
I hope it’s not too late to pack my things and go
           
But where I wanna be is not where you’d expect
They have a place for me down on Nieuwe Binnenweg
 
Chorus:
Is this real life or just the way I am
I long for The Netherlands
And I want to go, back
Back to Rotterdam
 
Never felt like a stranger, never felt in danger
Ever since I came here I only felt at peace
 
Back home some have to fight just to survive
Why do they have to die instead of living free?
 
I know someday the world will come to an end
And I’m going to watch it burn from in another land
 
Chorus
