Text: Edguy. Vain Glory Opera.

The prayers have been spoken
May the Gods be on my side
May They join my way
To bring me victory

Seven at one stroke
My triumph and my pride
They will be history

But behind my enemies eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide

What's hell without a paradise
What's the night without a day
We would think it's bright

What's a fall if we can't rise
What's a hero at a play
Without a fool to fight

But behind my enemies eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide

But behind my enemies eyes
A soul in disguise
Not only lies

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide

We live to fight the hand of doom
We got the pride to strike a fool
Vain glory be my wicked guide
