lyrics

Sounds of planes overhead
All the people scream
Children are missing
The mothers are bleeding
Tasting the echoes
Of a spanish dream
Sons and daughters
Resting at their feet

Frightened horses paw at the ground
This is not their war
“A better life awaits us here”
A lie they’ve heard before

Fireworks in the sky
Bombs pour down like rain
Cover up their eyes
Celebrate the fear
Pablo’s winter is so cold
But his heart is warm
Contorted shapes for violence
Highlight this civil war

Frightened horses paw at the ground
This is not their war
“A better life awaits us here”
A lie they’ve heard before

Viva! Viva! Viva!
Guernica
