took half your face and both your eyes
it left you nothing but paralyzed
and mushroom clouds it left behind
our city's crumbling but i don't mind
the ether tastes like nausea,
a permanent distraction
from the waking world outsiderain down, gloria
rain down, gloria
rain down, gloria
rain down, glorialike skeletons on ecstasy
an epileptic dance party
so shut your mouth
and don't you scream
just hold my hand girl and dance with me
to the sound of severed hands clappin'
at our untimely funeral
bombs wrap children round swing setsrain down, gloria
rain down, gloria
rain down, gloria
rain down, whats wrongand mans new nuclear paint brush
which drew you on earth's canvas
a skull where you face should bein the sound of the rain
in the flames of the fallen
i hear the echoes of an empire calling out your name
a ghostly saunet, a sawtooth serenade
and through the smoke i heare them singing
i hear them singing, singing gloriarain down, gloria
rain down, gloria
rain down, gloria
rain down, gloria
