Edguy - Vain Glory Opera lyrics

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
I 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
[2x]

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
[2x]

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
[6x]

We live to fight
The hand of doom...
