Hey Gloria
Look out to the setting sun
Eternal youth is a landscape of a lie
The cracks of my skin can prove
Say your prayers and light a fire
Your slogan's 'A gun for hire
Hey Gloria
The fight of our live's been drawn in this undying love
Gloria
You blast your name in graffiti on the walls
Falling in broken glass and slashing through your spirits
I can hear it like a jilted crowd
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 autumn's wind fades into black
She is the saint on all the sinners
(Gloria!)
The one that's fallen through the cracks
So don't put away your burning light
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
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
The light that shadows in the night
Gloria
Tell me the story of your life
Your life!
