Vanity
Rotten Sound Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh!
Can I be the most beautiful?
Is there any room...
For a perfect person?

The loss of perfection!

Can we find the way...
To the completion?
The completion to fill up...
And enjoy!

The loss
Of perfection!

Go!

Yeah!
I am the biggest one!
The best fucking...
Human being around!





The loss of perfection!
The loss of perfection!

Overall Meaning

The song "Vanity" by Rotten Sound begins with a series of rhetorical questions that one might ask themselves in seeking validation and acceptance from others. The singer asks if they can be considered the most beautiful, and if there is any room for someone who is perfect in a flawed world. However, the repeated line "The loss of perfection" suggests a certain degree of self-awareness and internal conflict, as the desire for external validation clashes with the realization that perfection is impossible and ultimately unattainable.


The second half of the song sees a shift in tone, as the singer declares themselves to be the "biggest one" and the "best fucking human being around." This sudden shift suggests a certain insecurity and bitterness, as though the singer is attempting to assert their dominance and superiority in response to feelings of inadequacy. Overall, the lyrics of "Vanity" speak to the complex and often contradictory nature of human desires and emotions, particularly when it comes to issues of self-image and acceptance.
