Zombie

One of my friends called Martina always sings a song, and I ask her what is the name of that song, she told me ”zombie”. At that time, I just can’t figure out why she love that song so much, and I ask her that, she also told me the history of that song.
In 1993, March 20, the IRA attack Warrington (a shopping mall) in Cheshire, and there were two children were died in that attack. The song is to blame that violent and harm to those innocent people and children. The Cranberries is from Ireland, even though they try to independent, they still can’t stand the violent. The lyric is touching and taught us peace, and that is why she loves the song so much.








Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken ?

But you see it's not me, it's not my family
In your head, in your head, they are fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head they are crying

In your head, in your head, Zombie, Zombie
In your head, what's in your head, Zombie

Another mother's breaking heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken
It's the same old theme since 1916
In your head, in your head they're still fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head they are dying

In your head, in your head, Zombie, Zombie
In your head, what's in your head, Zombie
