Exodus
X-sys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Returning in the morning from March and into May
At night the German bombers would then arrive
To try to ensure that no buildings might survive
The spirit of the people would still prevail
To break their resolve Herman Goring would fail
Make do and mend until the war's end
The flames in city lighting up the night sky
From France to Devon the Luftwaffe would fly
The people would trek out to avoid another raid
All the Plymouth citizens feeling so afraid
The spirit of the people would still prevail
To break their resolve Hermann Goring would fail
Make do and mend until the war's end
Despite all the anguish that's so hard to comprehend
Every afternoon leaving for the countryside
The city air raid shelters were not a safe place to hide
For so many nights their blitzed city would burn
The next day to the devastation they would return
The spirit of the people would still prevail
To break their resolve Hermann Goring would fail
Make do and mend until the war's end
Despite all the anguish that's so hard to comprehend
Despite all the anguish that's so hard to comprehend
The lyrics of X-sys's song "Exodus" paint a vivid picture of the resilience and strength of a community during the bombings of World War II. The song describes the daily routine of the people, leaving their battered city every day and returning in the morning, from the months of March to May. However, their respite would be shattered by the arrival of German bombers at night, aiming to ensure that no buildings survive.
Despite the constant bombardment, the spirit of the people remains unbroken. The lyrics emphasize their determination to persevere, with Herman Goring's attempts to break their resolve ultimately failing. The community finds solace in the phrase "make do and mend," a common sentiment during the war, where people had to make the best of what they had despite the anguish that is difficult for us to comprehend.
The lyrics further describe the devastating impact of the bombings, with the city in flames at night, and the Luftwaffe flying across the country from France to Devon. To avoid another raid, the people would trek out to the countryside, but the fear and anxiety still lingered among the citizens of Plymouth.
Through it all, the spirit of the people remains unyielding. They continue to leave for the countryside every afternoon, recognizing that the city air raid shelters are not a safe place to hide. And despite the destruction and devastation, they always return the next day, facing the hardships head-on.
"Exodus" is a tribute to the indomitable spirit of the community during the war, highlighting their resilience, determination, and refusal to be defeated.

Well said! :D Im considering joining another video site just so I can upload these songs in their true quality. (Ill still be on youtube though so dont think im leaving just yet)
bayardojo
great video but i was woundering how do u do higher quality?
Xmillsa
All you do to any video(not sure about really old ones...) you simply add "&fmt=18" to the end of the URL/address and it will allow you to have higher quality. Once you add &fmt=18 you should see a link underneath the video that says something like "watch in standard/high quality". For me its automatically on high for other people it might not be.

nice
Xmillsa
I dont :P I upload it in perfect sounding quality but youtube decides to destroy it... and this is the result. The &fmt=18 thing is something youtube have created, not me :P
Xmillsa
Im loved by all xD
Xmillsa
I dont think its because people still use dial-up, I think youtube just cant be bothered upgrading. They clearly have the power for HD(yes I said HD) videos yet have they done anything? No! All they've done is add a link to certain videos that meet certain requirements(which mine dont...), that allow you to choose between "Standard" and "Higher" quality for those of use with decent broadband or higher speeds... Even "higher quality" still has a very low audio quality and small video size.
