Writhing in the western war
Soldiers marching to and fro
Riots rage, the sea is still
Silence sings, the song is blue

They raised him here behind this wall
With choral songs his mother sung
He set his feet on foreign soils
To live outside of golden laws

Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall

Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall

So writhing in the western war
Soldiers marching to and fro
Riots rage, the sea is still
Silence sings, the song is blue

Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall

Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall
Behind the western wall
