Vanity Songtext / Lyric

VANITY
(Musik: Becker, Text: Döring)

Vanity, vanity aah
Can’t you see, vanity aah
We’re just dancing, round and round we go
In a perfect style, a perfect show
Now you see me, baby, now you don’t
Foolish games we play
There’s a beast we’ve bottled up inside
And a danger zone we try to hide
Held to ransom – we’re so civilized
Give me more, give everything I need
All of my life I felt so incomplete
(With) everything I have that I don’t need

Vanity, vanity aah
Can’t you see, vanity aah
Speaking clearly we never hear aword
Don’t you listen, you might get hurt
Only pretending, always keeping up
Foolish games we play
And I wonder if I’m still alive
Out of danger, future so bright
Held to ransom – we’re so civilized
Give me more, give everything I need
All of my life I felt so incomplete . . .
