[00:00.65] Anti-Flag Exodus Lyrics
[00:01.27] First they came for the Communists
[00:03.15] and I did not speak out.
[00:05.57] Then they came for the socialists
[00:07.62] and I did not speak out.
[00:09.72] Next they came for the trade unionists
[00:12.08] and I did not speak out.
[00:14.97] AND THEN THEY CAME FOR ME
[00:17.25]
[00:34.00] This is autonomy
[00:36.13] My American Dream
[00:37.98] Stepped over on the street
[00:40.14] Stars and stripes blinding me
[00:42.24] Their contagious air we breath
[00:44.32] My American Dream
[00:46.42] Classism the black plague
[00:48.37] Will mark your grave
[00:50.15]
[00:50.70] This is the second time
[00:52.37]
[00:54.69] we will not fall in line,
[00:59.37] No you can't stop this exodus
[01:03.39] No you won't stop this exodus.
[01:07.52] No you can't stop this exodus
[01:11.67] No you won't stop this exodus.
[01:14.99]
[01:15.42] A hooded prisoner on the bay
[01:17.44] These truths let freedom ring
[01:19.37] A child Darfur refugee
[01:21.24] Home of the free and brave
[01:23.51] The ghosts of war who will not sleep
[01:25.58] These truths let freedom ring
[01:27.62] The poor who drown in bigotry
[01:29.70] Will mark your grave
[01:30.76]
[01:31.81] This is the second time, yeah
[01:34.18] it's the second time
[01:35.84] we will not fall in line,
[01:37.91]
[01:40.36] No you can't stop this exodus
[01:44.45] No you won't stop this exodus.
[01:48.54] No you can't stop this exodus
[01:52.64] No you won't stop this exodus.
[01:56.50]
[02:02.24] Fight forever more
[02:04.64] The movement of the people
[02:06.45] Fight forever more
[02:08.66] The voice of the emigre
[02:10.49] Fight forever more
[02:12.80] The movement of the people
[02:14.49] Fight forever more
[02:16.95] No concession, no compromise
[02:20.81] First they came for the Communists
[02:22.89] and I did not speak out.
[02:25.46] Then they came for the socialists
[02:27.50] and I did not speak out.
[02:29.84] Then they came for the trade unionists
[02:32.15] and I did not speak out.
[02:34.88] AND THEN THEY CAME FOR ME
[02:38.36] No you can't stop this exodus
[02:42.01] No you won't stop this exodus.
[02:46.06] No you can't stop this exodus
[02:50.22] No you won't stop this exodus.
[02:54.07] This is the second time
[02:55.90] we will not fall in line!
[02:58.18]
