Sunday Bloody Sunday (Bono, Clayton, Edge, Mullen) - 4:40
I can't believe the news today
I can't close my eyes and make it go away
How long, how long must we sing this song
How long, how long
Tonight we can be as one, tonight
Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across a 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
And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won
Trenches 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
Tonight, tonight
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Tonight, tonight
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Wipe your blood shot eyes
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and T.V. reality
Sunday, bloody Sunday
And today the millions cry
Sunday, bloody Sunday
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die
Sunday, bloody Sunday
The real battle just begun
Sunday, bloody Sunday
To claim the victory Jesus won
On a Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
