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 was running down the road
The fear was all I knew
I was looking for a soul that's real
Then I ran into you
And that cherry blossom tree
Was a gateway to the sun
And friendship, once it's won
It's won, it's one

Oh, Northside
Just across the river from the Southside
That's a long way here

All the green and all of the gold
The hurt you hide and the joy you hold
The foolish pride that gets you out the door
Up on Cedarwood, Cedarwood Road

Sleepwalking down the street
And not waking from these dreams
They're never dead in my head
Was a warzone in my teens
And I'm still standing on that street
Still need an enemy
The worst ones I can't see
But you can, you can

Oh, Northside
Just across the river from the Southside
And that's a long way here

All the green and all of the gold
The hurt you hide and the joy you hold
The foolish pride sends you back for more
Up on Cedarwood, Cedarwood Road

If the door isn't open it isn't theft
You cannot return to where you never left
Blossoms falling from a tree, they cover you and cover me
Symbols crash, bibles smash, you paint the world you need to see
And sometimes fear is the only place we can call our home
Cedarwood Road

And a heart that is broken
Is a heart that is open
Yeah, a heart that is broken
Is a heart that is open
