[00:24.483]She curls up like a ball at the sound of thunder
[00:31.808]The distant guns are closing fast
[00:38.903]Her body's hard as stone as her heart is tender
[00:46.267]Forget your past, Manuela
[00:57.029]She finds the strength to heal in her darkest hour
[01:04.215]Confronting soldiers as she sleeps
[01:11.314]Her solitude is bold, but she fights for comfort
[01:17.998]With a friend she keeps, Manuela
[01:28.662]Run from the night and emerge into day
[01:36.472]Banish those demons as you pull away
[01:42.428]Weakened by flight but empowered by will
[01:49.000]To live and breathe a newer day
[01:59.852]She cries out with a plea from those burning embers
[02:07.800]That took her little girl away
[02:15.001]Standing shoulder deep in a town of rubble
[02:22.009]Alive but trapped, Manuela
[02:32.005]Lost in a world of unending design
[02:39.356]We cannot find the path to travel on
[02:45.901]All I can offer this brave battered soul
[02:52.101]Is a weathered hand to rest upon
[03:00.210]
[03:39.045]The fires of Guernica are ablaze forever
[03:46.402]Behind those dark devoted eyes
[03:53.502]Your day of rest will come when the shells stop falling
[04:00.099]From angry skies, Manuela
[04:07.400]I'll tend to your heart, Manuela
[04:14.781]Forget your past, Manuela
