Lyrics

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 streets
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts back up against the wall!

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
All right lets go!

And the battles just begun
Theres many lost but tell me who has won
The 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
Come get some!

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away (sunday, bloody sunday)
I wipe your blood shot eyes (sunday, bloody sunday)

Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
Here I come!

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 yet began (sunday, bloody sunday)
To claim the victory jesus won (sunday, bloody sunday
On..

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday..
