Lyrics
I lost my baby to a foreign war
She was cut down in the gunfire of the western world
She was livin in sin
I was livin in a lie
She was caught up in the glimmer of a rich mans eye
I couldn't see her from the other side
They said son "there is no glory in your pride."
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
Well, I lost my baby to a foreign war
She was cut down in the gunfire of the western world
She was searching for salvation in the things you buy
I was finding all the reason to give up on life
If you love something and give it away
It can't come back unless you're free.
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I wait.
Somewhere in the in between
Where the east and the west meet
In the 30 year war where I came clean
That's where you will find me.
So I wait.
I wait.
I will wait at the Brandenburg gate
At the Brandenburg gate I'll wait
I just visited the Brandenburg Gate, and there wasn't a single member of Anti-Flag there. They must have gotten tired of waiting.
i hate this joke but its funny. take my like and leave
As the band gets older obviously tastes and the music changes, I love that they have such a diverse range of music 😀
There sound has changed, but you can still tell it's the same vocals drums guitar and it's the same message every fucking album. Thanks Anti-Flag
The ending was so cute! :D
This reminds me of Death or Glory by the Clash, for some reason. I fucking love it!
Hi Brandon Sutter! Let's go Pens. Ps - you are on the trade block.
I love how you knew who my picture was haha, I know. I'm kinda sad lol, I think he is underrated, better 3rd liner than Staal imo.
yes!
+Crlongboarder I shamefully admit I though it *had* to be a Clash cover.
anything with Tim Armstrong makes it a great song.
The truth.
That is true🙂🙂
It was great without him but even better with him
What does he do in this song? The main riff kinda sounds like his style I guess.
Truth
People who think this is not punk clearly haven't listened to The Clash, and if you wonder who they are, they are one if not the BIGGEST PUNK BAND of all time
I'd have to give that to the Ramones or the Sex Pistols tbh
+Ahmad Haddad clash are wayy over the ramones, might not in popularity but in its strong political lyrics and themes . ramones is more of a happy party rock band compared to the clash.
Acdeportivo2 yeah this is true but The Ramones were the original punk rock band as well
+Ahmad Haddad not hating on the ramones dont get me wrong ,one of my favs but when people usually talk to me about punk the first thing that comes to my head is the clash ,the addicts or the exploited ( dead K , misfits etc etc.)
+Acdeportivo2 yeah I understand that man, I'm actually a punk myself so I love all punk rock bands I don't hate on any tbh
They can't defeat love!! Don't be afraid of expressing this feeling!
This song live is just amazing!!
love reading what people have to say about anti-flag !!!!!! just show's how small minded some people are..
That's very accurate
So if I say I loved Anti-Flag while they had their original sound, and not with this pop-punk attempts, I am small minded? I listen to punk for 30 years, love new and old stuff, but punk you don't find on YT recommendations, rather in the basements. Cheers from Berlin.
When someone don't share your point of view you call him "small minded". Are you a nazi?
If this is poppy then i like pop. And I wish pop sounded like that.
***** Uhm, no. It's all but no punk ^^
Just listen to all the albums before (except "The General Strike" and "The People or the Gun" for the most part) and you know what punk is. THIS IS NOT!
Jutschl well its a combo of punk en alt rock but that doesn't matter its about the meaning of the song. it's a punk message no Mather what people think and say be yourself.
mackbeth182 aye
Jutschl lol, The General Strike and The People or the Gun are far less "poppy" than For Blood and Empire and especially less than Bright Lights of America.
That's besides the fact that Punk was strongly defined by bands like the Ramones, the Clash and the Sex Pistols; Punk IS poppy. That's part of what makes it PUNK. That's what makes it stripped down, raw.
mackbeth182 This is pop punk to be exact.
One of the best bands to see live.
this is pure punk rock
Why do people always say bands like Anti-Flag have "Sold Out" (Definition of sell out: a betrayal of one's principles for reasons of expedience)? Seems to me that Anti-Flag is still fighting the same fight it has always been. And this song is obviously heavily influenced by The Clash which is a band Anti-Flag has always praised since Anti-Flag formed.
Right?!
It's because people are idiots. Anti-Flag has changed it's sound to get to a broader audience.. meaning their message gets to be heard by more than just a small percentage of the population.
Punks only care about their own, it seems.
"the fake/dum punks", i don´t know how to say it on English sorry, are the ones who would say that, please don´t say "punks only care about their own" because that is bullshit. otherwise i agree with you on the part you said anti-flag has changed his sound to be heard by more people, but i have to say i liked more and miss the old sound of anti-flag. G.N.W.P
Mr.Nugget Depends on the punks, I should've specified. The crustier they are, the more they tend to care about their own.
The punk crowd outside of the street punks is rather quite loving and caring towards most people
Yes we are, until you fuck with someone we care about
Love the Goldman quote at the beginning
The Joy Of Punk is Not giving a shit if someone says you're not punk..
This song is awesome. It doesn`t always have to be so punk or hardcore to be good.
Honestly, love this bloody song.
This is just perfect. And for all of those that think that this is not "Punk" anymore or whatever, just know that Punk is about doing whatever you feel like doing and not giving a fuck about the "hate" you get. By far one of the best music videos I've ever seen.
Good message they sent in that video also
I lost my baby to a foreign war
She was cut down in the gunfire of the western world
She was livin' in sin, I was livin' in a lie
She was caught up in the glimmer of a rich mans eye
I couldn't see her from the other side
They said son "there is no glory in your pride."
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait, I'll wait
Well, I lost my baby to a foreign war
She was cut down in the gunfire of the western world
She was searching for salvation in the things you buy
I was finding all the reason to give up on life

I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait,
I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait.
Somewhere in the in between
Where the east and the west meet
In the 30 year war where I came clean
That's where you will find me.
So I'll wait, I'll wait.
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait,
(So I'll wait)
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
(So I'll wait)
I will wait at the Brandenburg Gate
At the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait,
So I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait.
I lost my baby to a foreign war.
Anti Flag never disappoints. Getting better with each album!
I WILL WAIT AT THE BRANDENBURG GATE!!
ian h AT THE BRANDENBURG GATE, I WAIT!
I'm so stoked to have been a part of this video. It was so much fun. Fucking sick!
***** yeah it was sooo sick! I hope I did I just had tons of fun doing it and met some awesome people it was truly amazing :D
Fredy Texis I was in it too. It was whatever. I guess it was pretty cool.
N0rthT really? Who were you? I only know like 5 kids that came out in it haha. I had a blast. It was a once in a lifetime experience for me I don't do things like that I'm not an actor at all.
Fredy Texis
I do a lot of videos. I guess I'm pretty good at it. I don't think I am, but people tell me how good I am all the time so I guess I am. I mean, I don't like to make a big deal out of it.
N0rthT hahahha. Way to ruin someone's day
I discovered Anti-flag during this pandemic. Really like them now! :D
Listen to A New Kind of Army and Underground Network to get caught up from the past 20+ years. Those albums are amazing.
One of the best punk bands out there. 20/20 Vision is a solid album, and thats NEW
Great band, Great tune and Great to see Tim Armstrong in there to!!!
This song is an affront to the Brandenburg Gate and everything it stands for. Our ignorance knows no bounds.
Great song and great video, having Tim Armstrong was a nice touch. Love anti flag
Emma Goldman, just perfect
Nice job guys! The video is pretty fucking good. Short, simple, good tune, good cinematography.
That kiss at the end was definitely not needed but much appreciated haha.
IM SO PROUD MY COUSIN WAS IN THAT VIDEO!!! FRONT ROW IN THE CLASSROOM ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT.
Man I don't care what punk is or if this is it, but this is the only song I've listened to for the past 3 days!
awesome song. more punk rocknroll than ever
Fantastic
I didn't realize Draco Malfoy liked confetti
I thought it was the kid from Casper
Aaaaaaand roast.
I laughed too hard at that-
He also likes toothpaste, bowling, honey, money, cartwheels, hamsters, pliers, facepaint, and fire
Also, hi. Bet you didn't expect a reply to a comment from five years ago
Sounds like Brian Fallon/Gaslight Anthem. I like Anti-Flag a lot
I fucking love this song. I'm stoked to see Tim Armstrong from Rancid in the video.
The new album is so good, their lyricism has matured so well
Just saw this live like a few hours ago. FUCKING AMAZING
Missed this one before. Just now hearing it, not too shabby for AF after all these years. Only seen’em once recently for the first time in the last say 17/18 years.
Saw these guys last night and it was fucking amazing. This was the second-to-last song of their encore, and the entire club rocked out. They broke down the drum set, moved it into the crowd and reassembled it, and then shot confetti everywhere. El Corazon, Seattle, 1/24/18.
I wish they did a collabo back in 97.
thebarrochannel What makes this pop is that it says ft. Ti m armstrong, but tim armstrong doesnt do shit
This is still relevant today
Incredible like ever Anti-Flag the more great band of punk rock i love you guys please come to Mexico i hope watch you of return here :D
its been awhile..
i forgot what good people, playing good music felt like..
End of fuc**** 2022 and this Song is still one of The best
Por fin nuevo video!! quedo increible viejos, sigan asi. Saludos desde México :)
Saw them live yesterday, it was amazing :D and on the Album i got 2 signatures
I love this so much!!!
This actually has a touch of Bruce Springsteen in it. That it is what it sounds to me anyway.
That's it, New Jersey sound! This reminds me more of Gaslight Anthem than The Clash, Anti-Flag or Rancid.
Just want to clear it up, here's why people say that this is the album where Anti-Flag "sold out" (even though I personally don't think they did),
1. They used an abundance of cleaner production on this album, at least by punk standards, guitars with a lack of distortion, drums pushed pretty far back in the mixing, and not as much emphasis on the bass as usual, are pretty obvious examples of such a drastic turn in the way they wrote songs for the album.
2. This may be subjective, but Chris #2's vocals on the album are pretty consistently rough and he always sounds like he had 20 takes before the final version. I mean harsh vocals on a punk album, they should go hand in hand, but not only do they sound more rough and off key then usual, but it completely clashes with the cleaner production they're going for on this release.
3. The most glaring problem in my opinion, there isn't as much of a passion behind this album like past ones. The lyrics are pretty vague on the most part, not entirely, like with songs about drone attacks in the Middle East, that's pretty specific. But this album also came out during the Obama administration. Compared to the hells-cape that the Bush and Clinton years brought for inspiration for their last albums, making an album in this era of politics just seems really unfit for a band like Ant-Flag, and their pretty clear politics and ideals, to take on.
All of these details combined together culminated to an album that, while has some pretty killer instrumentation and energy behind it, seems really unfit. I personally like this album, I like a lot of Anti-Flag albums, they're a pretty consistent band and they know what they're good at. Hell, I have this album specifically on special edition white vinyl, I I LIKE THIS ALBUM. This is just some of the arguments I've seen sprouting up as a result.
I like this song.
Great Song.
Caaaaraaaallhhhooooo que foda,anti-flag new album,vcs sao fodas,mando um salve representando o brasil.

Greetings from Germany
Love that Band !
This is perfect.
anti flag your band will always be in my mind u guys make me feel beter now mater what
Love it
eek this came out so well! I love it
Punk can not be simply classified as a "sound". Punk is a way of life. It's almost a religion. To say a song is not punk because it's "poppy" is bullshit.
People just can't enjoy music like they used to. Keep fighting the fight Anti-flag.
The Clash are here again
Love you Anti-flag!
Bah, bateu um The Clash aqui no peito.
I like the anti homophobic message in the end
Dude they're anti fucking everything phobic
+larry itliong Of course I know, but I like it
i just like dudes kissing, and anything antithetical towards organized religion.
I mean, fuck religion and anything used as an excuse to hate. Now id you'll excuse me, I am contractually obligated to say this; I'm here, I'm queer, now somebody get me a fucking beer.
@@tazmon122 Same, my friend. Anything that involves dudes kissing I'll -ship- I get behind.
Saw them two days ago, they rocked the fuck out at bayfest in Italy. Fucking amazing band.
I'll wait at the Brandenburg Gate at the Brandenburg Gate I'll wait
Justin L I agree so much
fokin great!
wow
I feel like Tim diserved a solo verse in that song
Awesome tim! #livinglegend
the Emma Goldman quote
I heard this song on the radio today and thought it was Anti-Flag covering a Clash song
Sounds like Beach Slang and Dropkick Murphys had a Top 40 baby.......named it bubblegum.....I like it!
If this is pop then I fucking love pop.
I never thought about it for the first few times through this video, but I now can't help but wonder if the churchgoer who is prominently shown in shots starting around 1:40 is intended to so closely resemble Beelzebub's pet tortoise Mitch?
É uma bomba EMO
Uploaded on my birthday! Badass!
This is fucking awesome..american spring
That plot twist was great holy shit
Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
They used to be one of my favourite bands when I was a kid, now I just don't care anymore and I always wonder why, I try to listen their new stuff and it just sounds so boring and repetitive, I still appreciate their older stuff thought. I can't really tell what happened.
I'll save you guys some time. Don't even press play on this one. Go straight to the search bar and type in "underground network."
At the begining Chris sounds so much like Bon Jovi :D
Awesome video
