There's No Cure For Vanity
Tonight the Prom Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your illusion was the choice we held off, while you're lying in your bed. (You know they're killing you)
You fuss and you fuss and you fuss but still there's no change. To rid this tension we'll have to go to great lengths. If we part right now will you spare us from the blame? Can you spare us from the blame?
Your illusion was the choice we held off, while you're lying in your bed. (You know they're killing you)
Pick up your guns and drop your feelings, hold onto me and you'll be alright.
Pick up your guns and drop your feelings
You lie, you lie in your bed
I never wanted you... I never wanted you to leave me
The lyrics of this song by Tonight the Prom, "There's No Cure for Vanity," seem to revolve around a troubled relationship that has gone sour. The opening lines state that the distance between the two people involved has created a tension that is felt deeply on both sides. The singer in the song is coming to terms with what is left of their relationship and how to move on from it. They are trying to find a way to cherish what is left of their connection, despite the negativity that seems to have consumed it.
The lyrics suggest that the person they were once involved with is Illusion. Illusion represents something that they held onto despite knowing that it wasn't real or what they truly wanted. The singer is acknowledging the destruction that the illusion has caused, and how it has contributed to the tension in their relationship. They are asking whether there is any way to end this relationship without anyone being blamed. The lines "While you lie in your bed... die blessed" convey the sense of finality and the hope that a peaceful ending can be achieved.
In the final lines of the song, the singer advises the other person to "Pick up your guns and drop your feelings." This is a powerful metaphor that suggests both parties should let go of their emotions and prepare for whatever comes next. They are holding onto each other, even though it might not be enough. The line "I never wanted you to leave me" further emphasizes the deep connection they once had.
