Little Collective - Vainglorious Lyrics




Hope blows in the cruel wind

Ignorantly disregarded by the vain

As they overlook the impoverished

The modest the plain

In their youth they boasted fairness

Their bright complexion their lovely features the best

Beauteous lies

In all fairness

Time is not fair it takes away the fair

And lies them down to rest

And lies them down to rest

Lies them down to rest

Hope blows in the cruel wind

Ignorantly disregarded by the vain

As they overlook the impoverished

The modest the plain

Hope blows in the cruel wind

Effortlessly sold

By the vainglorious by those who

Believe all that glitters is gold

But jewels lose their sheen when

Strung on a stiff nape

Vain

A bangle on your arm

A shiny ridged chain

When taken from their casket

To be put into yours

May tether you to vanity

But does not arm against mortality

Against mortality

Hope blows in the cruel wind

Ignorantly disregarded by the vain

As they overlook the impoverished

The modest the plain

Hope blows in the cruel wind

Viciously taken by time

Pulled from their wrinkled hands

That cling to a forgotten line

The vain narcissistic

Endeavour to cover up their

Timeworn complexion

With makeup because of their makeup

But nothing can they make up for a

Dissipated life

Time the conduit of death

And to both they are subject

To both they are subject

Hope blows in the cruel wind

Ignorantly disregarded by the vain

As they overlook the impoverished

The modest the plain

Hope blows in the cruel wind

Effortlessly sold

By the vainglorious by those who

Believe all that glitters is gold
