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 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 (x4)

And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die
The real battle just begun
To claim the victory Jesus won

Sunday, bloody Sunday (x2)
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long, how long?
Tonight, we can be as one tonight
Tonight, Sunday, bloody, Sunday (tonight)

Let's go!

Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away (Sunday, bloody Sunday)
Wipe your tears away (Sunday, bloody Sunday)
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

    General Comment:Man, the U2 song changed my life when I was younger. And the Ignite cover is incredible. But this just sucks with those Nickelback vocals and little-girl screeching. They don't even play the lead in the bridge. Just keep on chugging.

    General Comment:this song already is fucking gorgeous. but to add the element of a more hardcore feel to it makes it just that much better. if you haven't heard this song, youre missing out like none other

    General Comment:I always thought the Ignite version was awesome...and you can't say "this song is 100 times better then when u2 did it" because well, U2 did more the do it, they made the damn thing. So there would be no covers unless U2 made this truly beautiful POP anthem.

    General Comment:great cover, although you can't really tell that from just seeing these printed words, you have to hear it for yourself.
