lyrics

Condemned to not learn from the history of the past
Fascism rises from its ugly mask
Desperate times lead to desperate measures
Austerity bites, no more unknown pleasures
Far from emulating the ideals that the European Union ever had
To prevent another world war from a nazi threat
The economic crash of 2007 and 8
Has seen governments act in the interests of the banks
At the expense of real economic recovery
to help struggling people put food on their plate
Governments turn to become insular bodies
Politicians pander to right wing media stories
Economies slump
Nationalism grows
Talk leads to self-preservation
Job cuts initiate high unemployment
Stimulates migration
Creates conflict
Creates tension
Consequences?
Preconditions for fascism begin to fall into place
The landscape of history starts to take shape
Now is the time to act
Before tyrants can once again dictate
The shape of our world
We can affect by our actions of today
Anti-fascists
We need to prepare
To voice our opinion
To dispel the despair
For fear and uncertainty create the base of fascist tides
We have to communicate
Not hide
For should fascist parties ever come into power once more
The demise of Europe can again lead to war
It will not just be threatening words that we hear and that we read
And the streets will once more run red
With the blood of those of us that no longer are free
