The More I See (The Less I Believe)

The more that I see, the less I believe

The barbed wire fences have replaced all the trees

The houses of God are full of sinners every week

Praying for forgiveness for those they leave to bleed

And they keep telling me, it's not my concern

But when petrol bombs fly, when cars overturn

When you see children cry because the cities are burning

Who's gonna show concern

Belfast's only half an hour away (Belfast)

Close your eyes but it won't go away (Belfast)

Belfast's only half an hour away (Belfast)

Belfast's only half an hour away (Belfast)

But the more that I see, the less I believe

Like countries split in two through religion, tradition, and greed

The devil's purse is put upon those who have solutions

And those like me too ignorant to find my own conclusions

Is that what they're telling me, it's not my concern

But when I see children crying 'cause that's all they can do

They are crying for help and they're looking at you

What are you supposed to do?

Belfast's only half an hour away (Belfast)

Close your eyes but it won't go away (Belfast)

Belfast's only half an hour away (Belfast)

Belfast's only half an hour away (Belfast)

The governing powers are confused, the armies becoming bemused

Another bomb becomes defused and the terrorists aren't amused

Paisley is getting his shirt off, Sinn Fein are going insane

They strike to divide the countryside but the borderline remains

Another attack leaves a widow in black, grieving for her bereaved

Another kid with a brick gets shot in the back and gets left on the pavement to bleed

And they keep telling me, it's not my concern

It's not my concern, it's not my concern

Belfast's only half an hour away (Belfast)

Close your eyes but it won't go away (Belfast)

Belfast's only half an hour away (Belfast)

Belfast's only half an hour away (Belfast's only half an hour away)
