Gloria
Gloria by Madison Bicking
Oh Gloria,
No matter the distance
She always gets through
And I try to resist it
But I come out looking like the fool
The eyes of a devil
With the smile of an angel
We’re bonded, indefinitely
She’s inescapable
And she knows
Just how to get a rouse out of me
She hides behind her mask of lies,
And once again,
I get caught in her web of betrayal
She paints the most convincing disguise
Foolishly, I believe her portrayal
Oh Gloria,
We only have so much time
We run the risk of not fixing this
You’ve already stolen
All of what was mine
If this is the edge,
You’ve pushed me way past it
I’ve never known another way
What else can I do?
I’m alone and afraid
How do you always
Get me to come back to you?
Familiarity is comfortable
Chaos is easy
You do this ‘cause you know you can
My naivete gets the best of me
And you’re never satisfied until
You’re holding my bleeding heart
Between your hands
Oh Gloria,
We’re bonded, indefinitely
You’re inescapable
And only you know
The depth to which
Your wounds cut through me
