U2

U2 are an Irish rock band from Dublin. Formed in 1976, the group consists of Bono (vocals and guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards, and vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen, Jr. (drums and percussion). U2's early sound was rooted in post-punk but eventually grew to incorporate influences from many genres of popular music. Throughout the group's musical pursuits, they have maintained a sound built on melodic instrumentals, highlighted by The Edge's timbrally varied guitar sounds and Bono's expressive vocals. Their lyrics, often embellished with spiritual imagery, focus on personal themes and sociopolitical concerns. more »

I don't know you
And you don't know the half of it
I had a starring role
Played the bad guy and walked off set
They say be careful where you aim
'Cause where you aim, you might just hit
You can hold onto something so tight
You've already lost it
Dragging me down
That's not the way it used to be
You can't even remember
What I'm trying to forget

It was a dirty day
Yeah, a dirty day

You're looking for explanations
Yeah, I, I don't even understand
If you need someone to blame
Just throw a rock in the air, you'll hit someone guilty

(Oh, nice)
From father to son
In one life 
Has begun
A work
That's never done
Father to son

Get it right
There's no blood thicker than ink
Hear what I say
Nothing's as simple as when you blink
Wake up
Some things you can't get around
I'm in you
Moreso when they put me in the ground

Was a dirty day
Yeah, a dirty day

Those days, days, days run away like horses over the hill
Those days, days, days run away like horses over the hill
These days, days, days run away like horses over the hill
These days, days, days run away like horses over the hill
