Hey Gloria
Are you standing close to the edge ?
Lookout to the setting sun
The brink of your vision
Eternal youth is
A landscape of the lie

The cracks of my skin can prove
As the years will testify
Say your prayers and light a fire
We’re going to start a war
Your slogan’s a gun for hire
It’s what we waited for

Hey Gloria
This is why we’re on the edge
The fight of our lives been drawn to
This undying love

Gloria, Viva La Gloria
You blast your name
In graffiti on the walls
Falling through broken glass that’s
Slashing through your spirit
I can hear it like a jilted crowd

Gloria, where are you Gloria ?
You found a home
In all your scars and ammunition
You made your bed in salad days
Amongst the ruin
Ashes to ashes of our youth

She smashed her knuckles into winter (Glooriiaa!)
As autumn’s wind fades into black
She is the saint of all the sinners (Glooriiaa!)
The one that’s fallen through the cracks
So don’t put away your burning lights

Gloria, where are you Gloria ?
Don’t lose your faith
To your lost naivete
Weather the storm and don’t look
Back on last november
When your banners were burning down

Gloria, Viva La Gloria
Send me your amnesty down
To the broken hearted
Bring us the season
That we always will remember
Don’t let the bonfires go out

So Gloria
Send out your message of
The light that shadows in the night

Gloria, where’s your undying love ?
Tell me the story of your life
