Vanity
In this culture of mirrors, I’m searching for anything that will reflect my own image back to me in a more flattering light. Dim these stunning flaws, fill in the gaps within my mind so I don’t realise I need anyone else. Escalate my independence, make loneliness despicable (just a cheap excuse for physical affection – who needs it anyway?).
“Opposites attract” become obsolete in this place where like minds are too accessible. I only have to tolerate my own reflection, the infinite reflections of reflections of myself. I don’t want anything complementary. Only compliments. Tell me I am fine on my own. After all, you are only there to soothe my ego.
Distract me so I cannot see where my self fades thin and threadbare from too much stroking. But only until I become bored with your method of distraction and find someone new to take your place.
Ps.: I couldn´t help biting my nails, I didnt find my new home yet, My trip to Canada will just depend on my new job, and… Thank you all for the prayers!

Have you heard the latest? [you love you]
Have you seen who just walked in [vain vain vain vain]
[uh huh, you love you] right over there
She’s so vain vain vain vain
Vain vain vain vain
I’m glad you’ve found someone who loves you
But sad to say that someone is you
And now perhaps you’ll both be happy
Guess that makes two just you and you
Someone who cares so much about you
But does that someone have to be you
Bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom yeah
Bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom yeah
Vanity kills, it don’t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don’t pay bills
Vanity kills, it kills
So glad I found you glancing in the mirror
Gazing deeply at love’s patron saint
Admire the frame, survey the scenery
Or are you just inspecting the paint
Temptation’s strong modesty’s so weak
High on yourself humble you ain’t
Bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom yeah
Bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom yeah
Vanity kills, it don’t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don’t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don’t pay bills [no way]
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don’t pay bills
Vanity kills, it kills
So vain, vain vain vain
You love you [yeah]
Give it, give it us, give it us
So vain, so vain, so vain
Vanity kills, it don’t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don’t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don’t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, if the blast don’t get you
Then the fallout will
You love you
