Cover art for Vanus Empty lyrics by Dead Poetic

fall out boy, i think ur pretty close actually i dont believe its about a girl being shallow at all, in fact i think its quite the opposite, its about how the shallowness of others drove her to hate herself. in the bridge it talks about how she was beautiful, but nobody noticed her because it wasnt physical beauty, and they said she was flawed, and drove her to kill herself. he says that its the others who are flawed, because of their insensitivity.

i also think this song is about how suicide is covered up and forgotten, and how nobody tries to find the reason why she killed herself. thats said pretty explicitly "But suicide is something we'd rather not mention here. In our beautiful world of saving face. "

this is one of my favorite DP songs, and i think ive got a pretty good interpretation of it, but if theres more to it id like to know.
