Mother's love, cornered and shaking up. The sun, bright on such a violent day, See the blood on the shattered dinner plates. Six years old, frozen still, I couldn't watch your rolling eyes escape. I could never be this brave without your face.
Oh, I owe you everything Oh, Gloria, oh, oh, everything. Oh, I owe you everything
Devil's hands, wrapped tight around your neck, my feet kicking in defensive ways. Yeah, I can still envision blood on the shattered dinner plates. You sprung up... had enough. A second wind until the sirens came. I would never be this brave without your face.
Oh, I owe you everything Oh, Gloria, oh, oh, everything. Oh, I owe you everything
Yeah, I could never be this brave without your face.
Oh, I owe you everything Oh, Gloria, oh, oh, everything. Oh, I owe you everything
