"Awakened" vessel appears to be just a red herring for "the beings inside these vessels have become animate"--ie, Banica's the "awakened" glass because Lich made her a body that she could leave the glass in. There is no "awakened vessel" in the sense that people thought there was based on this song. Waiter is Lilith, Graveyard is Banica, Gear is Adam, Court is Irina, etc. These are not manifestations of anything, just people with connections to the vessel they're associated with. Who, for whatever reason, aren't actually in real human bodies at the time.

Gammon is not the "substitute" of lust. He's just someone afflicted with it due to his owning the sword.

The problem here is that you're treating the things Cappriccio Farce says as factual and straightforward, when it's clear that either mothy changed his mind about some of the details or he was being deliberately unclear so as to mask the true nature of things.

The "unawakened" vessels issue appears to have been addressed in the bonus chapter of SCAP, imo--it's referring to how Gilles and Rahab chose to "sleep" until the world ended, even after being absorbed by Ma (in Rahab's case at least). As far as I recall the information.

Long comment but basically--it wouldn't be the first time a song didn't match up completely with the novels. I would just go with the novel information.
