“The newest music video from The Lumineers shows the heartbreak and destruction brought by alcoholism, as it follows the path of fictional Gloria Sparks, a woman whose alcoholism destroys her family.
“Gloria” is the first song released from The Lumineers’ upcoming album III, which follows three generations of the fictional Sparks family. In the music video, Gloria is seen drinking around her infant, fighting with her spouse, and ultimately leaving the scene of a car accident that she caused.”
Now the evening has come to a close And I’ve had my last dance with you On to the empty streets we go And it might be my last chance with you So I might as well get it over The things I have to say won’t wait until another day
refrein: You’re a lady, I’m a man, you’re supposed to understand How these things are often planned to be You’re romantic, I’m a fool, You’re the teacher, I’ve come to school Here I sit and hope that you’ll love me You’re pure magic, unlock my chain Nothing ventured, nothing gained And so I say with no restraint, be mine, be mine
Hard to answer I agree But then I’ve got to know I’m not asking you to marry me Just a little love to show Oh I know I could make you happy So the things I have to say Won’t wait until another day

I was an unmarried girl I’d just turned twenty-seven When they sent me to the sisters For the way men looked at me Branded as a Jezebel I knew I was not bound for Heaven I’d be cast in shame Into the Magdalene laundries
Most girls come here pregnant Some by their own fathers Bridget got that belly by her parish priest We’re trying to get things white as snow All of us woe-begotten-daughters In the streaming stains Of the Magdalene laundries
Prostitutes and destitutes And temptresses like me Fallen women Sentenced into dreamless drudgery Why do they call this heartless place Our Lady of Charity? Oh, charity
These bloodless brides of Jesus If they had just once glimpsed their groom Then they’d know, and they’d drop the stones Concealed behind their rosaries They wilt the grass they walk upon They leech the light out of a room They’d like to drive us down the drain At the Magdalene laundries
Peg O’Connell died today She was a cheeky girl A flirt They just stuffed her in a hole! Surely to God you’d think at least some bells should ring! One day I’m going to die here too And they’ll plant me in the dirt Like some lame bulb That never blooms, come any spring Not any spring
