Hey Gloria, are you standing close to the edge?   Look out to the setting sun, the 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, 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 live's been drawn in this undying love      Gloria, Viva La 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, 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 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, 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   Your life!
