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?

Tonight, we can be as one tonight



Broken bottles under children's feet

And 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



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?



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, yeah



I wipe the tears from your eyes

I wipe your tears away

(Tonight, tonight)

I wipe your tears away

(Tonight, tonight)

I wipe your tears away

(Tonight, tonight)

I wipe your bloodshot eyes

(Tonight, tonight)



Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday

(The real battle just begun)

Sunday, bloody Sunday

(To claim the victory Jesus won on...)



Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday
