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 Féin 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) Does anybody know any jokes?
