Anti-Flag Exodus Lyrics |
|
First they came for the Communists |
|
and I did not speak out. |
|
Then they came for the socialists |
|
and I did not speak out. |
|
Next they came for the trade unionists |
|
and I did not speak out. |
|
AND THEN THEY CAME FOR ME |
|
This is autonomy |
|
My American Dream |
|
Stepped over on the street |
|
Stars and stripes blinding me |
|
Their contagious air we breath |
|
My American Dream |
|
Classism the black plague |
|
Will mark your grave |
|
This is the second time |
|
we will not fall in line, |
|
No you can't stop this exodus |
|
No you won't stop this exodus. |
|
No you can't stop this exodus |
|
No you won't stop this exodus. |
|
A hooded prisoner on the bay |
|
These truths let freedom ring |
|
A child Darfur refugee |
|
Home of the free and brave |
|
The ghosts of war who will not sleep |
|
These truths let freedom ring |
|
The poor who drown in bigotry |
|
Will mark your grave |
|
This is the second time, yeah |
|
it's the second time |
|
we will not fall in line, |
|
No you can't stop this exodus |
|
No you won't stop this exodus. |
|
No you can't stop this exodus |
|
No you won't stop this exodus. |
|
Fight forever more |
|
The movement of the people |
|
Fight forever more |
|
The voice of the emigre |
|
Fight forever more |
|
The movement of the people |
|
Fight forever more |
|
No concession, no compromise |
|
First they came for the Communists |
|
and I did not speak out. |
|
Then they came for the socialists |
|
and I did not speak out. |
|
Then they came for the trade unionists |
|
and I did not speak out. |
|
AND THEN THEY CAME FOR ME |
|
No you can't stop this exodus |
|
No you won't stop this exodus. |
|
No you can't stop this exodus |
|
No you won't stop this exodus. |
|
This is the second time |
|
we will not fall in line! |
