The Cranberries, “Zombie”

 

Another head hangs lowly, child is slowly taken / And if violence causes the silence / Who are we mistaking / 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, zombie… / What’s in your head, in your head / Zombie, zombie, zombie…

Another mother’s breaking heart is taking over / And the violence causes silence / We must be mistaken / It’s the same old thing since nineteen-sixteen / In your head, in your head, their 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, zombie… / What’s in your head, in your head / Zombie, zombie, zombie…
