Sunday Bloody Sunday

I can't believe the news today
Oh, I can't close my eyes and make it go away
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long? How long?
'Cause tonight, we can be as one
Tonight
Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Alright, let's go!
And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me, who has won?
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters
Torn apart
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long, how long?
'Cause tonight, we can be as one
Tonight, tonight
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday (tonight, tonight)
Come get some!
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your bloodshot eyes
(Sunday, bloody Sunday)
(Sunday, bloody Sunday)
(Sunday, bloody Sunday)
Sunday, bloody Sunday
(Sunday, bloody Sunday)
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Alright, let's go!
And it's true, we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today, the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow, they die
The real battle just begun (Sunday, bloody Sunday)
To claim the victory Jesus won (Sunday, bloody Sunday)
On
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
