Contradiction Of Being

I'm vain.
I thought myself as great but then,
What of all the disdain?
They are saying different truths than what I believe to be true, 
What does that mean?
Your truth burn away my flesh, burn up my soul.
Nobody matters to me anymore
Forgive me, I've become a heartless ghoul.
