Vain Glory Opera Songtext / Lyric

The prayers have been spoken

May the gods be on my side

May they join my way to bring me victory

Seven at one stroke

My triumph and my pride

They will be history



But behind my enemy's eyes

A soul in disguise

Not only lies



We live to fight the hand of doom

We got the pride to strike a fool

Vain glory be my wicked guide

We live to fight the hand of doom

We got the pride to strike a fool

Vain glory be my wicked guide






What's hell without a paradise

What's the night without a day

We would think it's bright

What's a fall if we can't rise

What's a hero at a play

Without a fool to fight



But behind my enemy's eyes

A soul in disguise

Not only lies



We live to fight the hand of doom

We got the pride to strike a fool

Vain glory be my wicked guide

We live to fight the hand of doom

We got the pride to strike a fool

Vain glory be my wicked guide



But behind my enemy's eyes

A soul in disguise

Not only lies



We live to fight the hand of doom

We got the pride to strike a fool

Vain glory be my wicked guide

We live to fight the hand of doom

We got the pride to strike a fool

Vain glory be my wicked guide
