the front bottoms

Unspoken Words


Mirror shows a stranger’s face
Chasing praise, a hollow grace
Golden hands and silver lies
All reflected in your eyes

You build your throne on shifting sand
Every crown slips through your hand

It’s just vanity  the cost you pay
Pride and ego lead you astray
It’s just vanity  you can’t disguise
The shadow that’s behind your eyes


Smiles are masks, applause is fake
Every move a calculated stake
Whispers echo through the hall
Silent warnings you ignore them all

You reach for heights you cannot keep
Every promise buried deep

It’s just vanity  the cost you pay
Pride and ego lead you astray
It’s just vanity  you can’t disguise
The shadow that’s behind your eyes


Cold reflection, burning bright
Lost in glory, lost in night
Nothing lasts  it fades away
The mirror mocks what you portray


It’s just vanity  the cost you pay
Pride and ego lead you astray
It’s just vanity  can’t close your eyes
Forever haunted by your lies
It’s just vanity…
It’s just vanity…


IT’S JUST VANITY
