U2 - IRAN ("FREEDOM FOR IRAN" - MUSIC BY U2)

Dedicated to freedom, justice, and democracy in Iran. Music by U2.
Thank you for dedicating "Sunday Bloody Sunday" to Iran at your recent concerts. We appreciate your sympathy and understanding. Classic songs that were not released by U2 on an official album: Mercy, Native Son, Sunday Bloody Sunday (The Edge sings). Thank you and peace! Lyrics:

"Mercy" (2004 - cut from "Atomic Bomb")

I was drinking some wine and it turned to blood
Whats the use of religion if youre any good
I know Im weed killer, honey, and youre sugar
If youre the prosecution I get away with murder
If you were ice, Im water
And with your telescope I can see further
Were binary code, a one and a zero
You wanted violins and you got Nero
Youre gravity searching for the ground
Youre silence searching for a sound
Your heart is aching, your heart is my home
Its fascinating, I know Ill never be alone

Im ripping the stitches
Weve got two hands to rub
Im digging the ditches
Of someone elses love

Love heals when I lie
Love puts the blue back in my eye
Love will come again
Ill be gone again
Again

If you hunger, baby let me feed it
If your heart is full, baby let me bleed it
And happiness is for those who don't really need it....
(abridged version)

"Native Son" (2004 - Alternate to Vertigo)

Yeah, its on the street
Its under your feet
Its everywhere but if youre looking for free
Dont look at me
My enemy became my country

On the run
Officer, put down the gun
Native son
I never wanted to own one
Native son
Both of us want to be someone
Its so hard
Is it so hard for a native son
To be free

Tears falling from the sky
Falling to the ground
Bullets start to fly, hes hurt
Hes in the dirt
On my word, I did not take his lie

Dont want to run away
Im safer at my fathers place
I know I cant stay
If I stay I know whats next

On the run
Officer, put down the gun
Native son
I never wanted to own one
Native son
All of us want to be someone
Its so hard
Is it so hard for a native son
To be free
Free

Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

Free....

"Sunday Bloody Sunday" (The Edge sings Live)

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....
(abridged version)
