I understand the historical meaning of this song, but reading the lyrics it applies so much to today. How long must we sing this song? Iraq. Darfur. Myanmar. New Orleans. The Mid-East. And countless others...It's an on going war and the millions cry out for help and we just eat and drink while tomorrow they die. Its a song for the world today, not just a bloody Sunday that happened before. It's about everyday that's bloody for so many innocent people while some of us choose to look away
