Verse 1

Hey Gloria

 Are you standing 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

Verse 2

Hey Gloria

 This is what were on the edge

The fight of our lives been drawn to

 This undying love

Interlude

Beat Changes from Ballad Piano to Fast Punk Rock

Chorus 1

Gloria, Viva La Gloria

You blast your name

 In graffiti on the walls

Falling thought broken glass that's

 Slashing thought your spirit

I can hear it like a jilted crowd

Chorus 2

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

Verse 3

She smashed her knuckles into winter

As autumns wind fades into black

She is the saint on all the sinners

The one that's fallen thought the cracks

Refrain 2

 So don't put away your burning light

Chorus 3

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

Chorus 4

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

Outro

 So Gloria,

Send out your message of the light

 That Shadow in the night

Gloria, Where's your undying love?

Tell me the story of your life

 your life
