Hey Gloria, are you standing close to the edge? Look out to the setting sun Brink of your vision Eternal youth is a landscape of a lie The cracks of my skin can prove As the years will testify
Say your prayers and light a fire Were going to start a war Your slogan's a gun for hire It's what we waited for
Hey Gloria, this is why were 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 and 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 ruins Ashes to ashes of our youth
She smashed her knuckles into winter (Gloria) As autumns wind fades into black She is the saint of all the sinners (Gloria) The one thats fallen through the cracks
So dont put away Your burning light
Gloria, where are you Gloria? Dont lose your faith to your lost naivet? Weather the storm and dont 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 Dont 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 Your life
