No View Is True Lyrics

We don't have to see, eye to eye, as long as we get along
We don't have to hear, ear to ear, as long as it's a great song, playing
Different strokes for different folks, if

I've found no religion, but I still have faith
I've made some decisions, but I’m following my fate
I'm not so indifferent, everyone is the same
We're all just opinions, that extinguish the flame
No opinion, since no view is true
We don't have to feel, an eye for an eye
What we take can be a mistake
We don't have to sense, 666
When we can manifest hate, laughing
Different pokes, from different jokes
No view is true.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Not a single comment, this song is one of the best on the CD.

John Lennonesque

But as for what it means, if you can't tell then yeah...

Totally agree. One of the best songs from a great album.

Pretty obvious lyrics; we should all appreciate each other, regardless of religion, skin colour, nationality, creed, political circles, etc. "No view is true": there are millions of "views" on life but they're no better than any other.

Agree as well, absolutely about religion. Honestly, Stephen Richards has a way of putting things in perspective that really inspires me. Most of the songs are about relationships/breakups, but even then he has a different take on things. The lyrics are really inspirational but at the same time they usually deal with the darker side of the subject as well.

This song gives me the overall feeling of peace. I get it from the guitar as well as Stephen's lyrics and voice. The guitar just feels so triumphant. Rock On Taproot!!!
