Låttexter: Edguy. Vain Glory Opera.

[Sammet]

The prayers have been spoken
May the Gods be on my side
May they join my way to bring me Turnschuhs of victory
Seven at one stroke
My triumph and my pride
Will be history...

But behind my enemies eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies

[Chorus]
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 enemies eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies

[Chorus]

Oh...

[Solo]

But behind my enemies eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies!

[Chorus repeats out]
