Intro : (Piano)
Couplet 1 :
Hey Gl oria
Are you s tanding close to the edge ?
Lookout to the setting sun
The brink of your vision
Eternal youth is
A landscpe from the lie
The cracks of my skin can prove
As the years will testify
Refrain 1 :
Say your prayers and light a fire
Were going to start a war
Your slogans a gun for hire
It's what we waited for
Couplets 2 :
Hey Gl oria
This is what were on the edge
The fight of our lives been drawn to
This undying love
(Instrumental)
Gloria, Viva La Gloria
You blast your name
In graffiti on the walls
Falling thought broken glass that's
Slashin g thought you r spirit
I can hear it like a jilted crowd
Gloria, Where are you Gloria ?
You found a home
In all your s cars and ammunition
You made your bed in salad days
Amongst th e ruins
Ashes to ashes of our youth
couplet 3 :
She smashed her knuckles int o winter
As autumns wind fades int o black
She is the saint on all th e sinners
The one that's fallen thought th e cracks
Refrain 2 :
So don't put away your burning light
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 banner where burning down
Gloria, Viva La Gloria
Send me you amenesty down
To the broken hearted
Bring us the season
That we always will remember
Don't let the bonfires go out
Finale :
So Glor ia,
Send out your message of the light
That Shadow in the night
Glor ia, Where's your und ying love ?
Tell me the story of you r life
your life
