Gloria

It's taken all my strength away this time

For today, all the offers I would make I'll withdraw

As I stand and I'll watch

As they burrow their way into the ground

When my words have become just a bark or a bay

A meaningless sound

They could sing Gloria

Oh that I am

Gloria

I am

And onto every face a little rain will fall

To trickle through and bathe their empty eyes

Are they not yet aware, would they care if they knew

That they have the power

No they don't move an inch, no they don't raise a hand

To seize their hour

They could sing Gloria

Oh that I am

Gloria

I am
