Vanity
Lunam Noctis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As you intend to hide the truth
Behold the form of their abomination
As you silence their souls
Selling the dream of the cure
Making people afraid of ghosts
Creations of your own mind
Selling the dream of the truth
You will pay for your sins
We'll swim the other way
From your propagation of vanity
We're far behind but we have the knife
So turn around
Selling the dream of the cure
Making people afraid of ghosts
Creations of your own mind
Selling the dream of the truth
Turning people into mindless beings
You will pay for your sins
We'll swim the other way
From your propagation of vanity
We're far behind but we have the knife
So turn around
Our Lord and Savior has lied
There is nothing divine
The salvation we've got
Was a sentence to burn in Hell
We'll swim the other way
From your propagation of vanity
We're far behind but we have the knife
So turn around
The lyrics of the Lunam Noctis song "Vanity" depict the influence of a deceitful and manipulative individual, who is likened to a priest, on society. This person is depicted as someone who hides the truth and sells the dream of the cure, which results in people becoming afraid of ghosts and being turned into mindless beings. The individual is shown as being responsible for their own creations of the mind, which for the most part, are abominations.
The song reveals the consequences of such manipulation, with the persona asserting that the individual will pay for their sins. The artist sings that they will swim the opposite direction, away from the person who is spreading vanity, highlighting that they are behind but possess a knife, which suggests that they can protect themselves.
Moreover, the song reveals that the Lord and Saviour has lied and there is nothing divine. The salvation that society has received is a sentence to burn in Hell. With this, the song highlights the dangers of blindly trusting authority and placing faith in false prophets. In general, Vanity is a critique of those who seek to manipulate the minds of the masses for their own gain.
