lyrics

O España
How many times have you erred?
Tilted at windmills, ran head-long at phantoms
It all comes tumbling down
O España
What did you learn from El Papa?
Blood for appeasement, burning and torture
Autosdafés all around
It all comes tumbling down

Have you sinned, have you stumbled
Have you learned what it means
To be beyond your means

O España,
Cristobal sailed for la rena
Brought empire and riches, spices and sickness
A women, a storm and it's done
O España,
What did you learn from Franco?
Bullets and bombers, paintings and peasants
We failed you, we failed you, we did

Have you sinned, have you stumbled
Have you learned what it means
To be beyond your means

O España
What can I learn from your sins?
Hubris is fatal; look ever outward
Forgiveness is heavy, but still
O España
How many times have I erred?
Tilted at windmills, ran head-long at phantoms
It all comes tumbling down

I have sinned, I have stumbled
I have never learned what it means
To be...
