Song lyrics

Yeah, mhm


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


Sunday, Bloody Sunday (Tonight, tonight)

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


Sunday, Bloody Sunday (Oh, wipe your bloodshot eyes)

Sunday, Bloody Sunday

Sunday, Bloody Sunday

Sunday, Bloody Sunday, oh

Sunday, Bloody Sunday

Sunday, Bloody Sunday, oh

Yeah, let's go


And it's true, we are immune

When fact is fiction and TV reality

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 (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

On—


Sunday, Bloody Sunday, yeah, yeah

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
