Glory |
| Deep in a corner of the night |
| We were lying in the middle of the road |
| Counting the planes as they flew by |
| Inconceivable imagining them go |
| And drunk we set the world to rights |
| As we fell and hit our heads upon the curb |
| You make me laugh until I die |
| Can you think of any better way to choke? |
| Stories told to me and stories told to you |
| And did you ever feel like they were ringing true? |
| And all their words for glory |
| Well they always sounded empty |
| When we’re looking up for heaven |
| Looking up for heaven |
| And way down here upon the ground |
| When we’re lying in the dirt |
| There’s no looking up for heaven |
| Looking up for heaven |
| Not everything had gone to plan |
| But we made the best of what we had, you know |
| Passing the drink from hand to hand |
| We admit we really know nothing at all |
| Stories told to me and stories told to you |
| And was it feeling real, and were they ringing true? |
| And all their words for glory |
| Well they always sounded empty |
| When we’re looking up for heaven |
| Looking up for heaven |
| And way down here upon the ground |
| When we’re lying in the dirt |
| There’s no looking up for heaven |
| Looking up for heaven |
| I’ll take my chances on the curb here with you |
| We watched the planes leave us behind |
| On the curb here with you |
| We watched the planes leave us behind |
| And then you put your hand in mine |
| And pulled me back from things divine |
| Stop looking up for heaven, waiting to be buried |
| And all their words for glory |
| Well they always sounded empty |
| When we’re looking up for heaven |
| Looking up for heaven |
| And way down here upon the ground |
| When we’re lying in the dirt |
| There’s no looking up for heaven |
| Looking up for heaven |
