Текст (слова) песни: New Model Army - Vanity

Ill teach you everything that I know now, Eddie
If you really want to take the time
But dont expect to get answers to anything, Eddie
There is just one thing Ive learned
Through everything that Ive done and tried
Everything I have justified

Its all vanity, all vanity - we try to have control
Its all vanity, all vanity cause Chaos rules it all

I always drive like a madman, Eddie
But youll soon get used to that
I believe if youre moving fast enough, Eddie
You dont ever have to watch your back
I choose solid ground to make my stands
I stay off the streets at closing time

Its all vanity, all vanity - we try to have control
Its all vanity, all vanity cause Chaos rules it all

Remember how it was out at Bunglass
We climbed up to the peak and stood against the rocks
The photographs came - you couldnt see us
We were lost against the mountains like specks of dust
And the mirror never lies, its just these foolish eyes
And we all see what we want to see
What we need to see, what we have to see
And so will you do just the same one day, Eddie

Ive been to that place a thousand times
Looked over the edge so many times
Wanted to jump a thousand times

Well we talk about saving the world now, Eddie
Its our vanity gone mad
Shell survive us all perfectly well
When were all long buried and dead
Clever monkeys with technology
Barely out of the caves and the trees
Its all vanity, all vanity - we try to have control
Its all vanity, all vanity cause Chaos rules it all
Eddie now let it go . . .

I turn my head away from here
Down towards the rolling seas again
I kneel and worship where I can
The ground comes swirling up and through these veins . . .
