Vanity
We never believe ourselves to be vain
But there always seems to come a day
When our insecurities become a rain
That pours down upon our brains
Over confidence and arrogance
Seem to be the parents of ol' vanity.
So we believe ourselves to have clarity
Over the weakness behind this insanity.
Yet there always seems to come a day
When our insecurities become a rain
That pours down upon our brains
Hopes that we never believed we had
Are dashed and trampled just like that
Leaving us feeling ultimately bad
For, over this, being so unusually sad.
So just a quick reminder to the strong
That even despite your clarity and sense
There comes a day when you are wrong
And you will lose your own innocence
Because there always seems to come a day
When our insecurities become a rain
That pours down upon our brains
