The Avett Brothers grew up saturated in Christianity, and their relationship with God is all throughout their music. In this song, they are referencing Ecclesiastes, a book of the Bible whose central theme is the vanity, emptiness, or absurdity of life.
I've got something to say
But it's all vanity, it's all vanity
I found a tune I could play
But it's all vanity, it's all vanity
Call off the guards
Call off the search
Their heads are chopped off
They're running in circles
They're running in circles
I have a plan for the day
But it's all vanity, it's all vanity
I've got love pouring out of my veins
But it's all vanity, it's all vanity
Call off the guards
Call off the search
Their heads are chopped off
They're running in circles
They're running in circles
Running in circles
They're running in circles
I've got something to say
But it's all vanity, it's all vanity
I've got love pouring out of my veins
But it's all vanity, it's all vanity
