Lyrics:

(This part is a quote by Martin Niemoller)

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

James:

if you don't reflect
you will never see
what's right beneath your nose
if you dont reflect
you will never see
the wood for the trees
one small step
backwards
further
so you can see./

I like that quote quite a bit. And the message hit home for me. It was a good listen as well as being topical and striking.
