Drab Majesty - Vanity

They won't find you interesting
A symptom of the industry of vanity
A city child with a pretty smile
An appetite for limelight
When the time's not right

If the valve breaks, then the earth quakes
And misery finds a way to put you in your place
Now is just a taste

Time to take a number
Anxious minds are under
So much influence
It seemed like opportunity
To profit from the beauty
That you always hid

It's never a shame to be ashamed

If the valve breaks, then the earth quakes
And misery finds a way to prey
If the valve breaks, then the earth quakes
And history finds a way to say
If the valve breaks, then the earth quakes
And misery finds a way to put you in your place
And now is just a taste

Now's just a taste

If the valve breaks, then the earth quakes
And misery finds a way to prey
If the valve breaks, then the earth quakes
And history finds a way to say
If the valve breaks, then the earth quakes
And misery finds a way to prey
If the valve breaks, then the earth quakes
And history finds a way to put you in your place
And now is just a taste

Now it's just a taste

When vanity raids your intellect

Faces, chins, chests, and limbs
When vanity raids your intellect
Your mind's erasing
