Halo Effect
What did I see?
Fool that I was
Oh, a goddess, with wings on her heels
All my illusions
Projected on her
The ideal, that I wanted to see
What did I know?
Fool that I was
Little by little, I learned
My friends were dismayed
To see my betrayed
But they knew they could never tell me
What did I care?
Fool that I was
Oh, little by little, I burned
Maybe sometimes
There might be a flaw
But how pretty the picture was back then
What did I do?
Fool that I was
To profit from youthful mistakes?
It's shameful to tell
How often I fell
In love with illusions again
What did I do?
The fool that I was
To profit from youthful mistakes?
So shameful to tell
Just how often I fell
In love with illusions again
Oh, a goddess with wings on her heels
Fool that I was
Oh, a goddess, with wings on her heels
All my illusions
Projected on her
The ideal, that I wanted to see
What did I know?
Fool that I was
Little by little, I learned
My friends were dismayed
To see my betrayed
But they knew they could never tell me
What did I care?
Fool that I was
Oh, little by little, I burned
Maybe sometimes
There might be a flaw
But how pretty the picture was back then
What did I do?
Fool that I was
To profit from youthful mistakes?
It's shameful to tell
How often I fell
In love with illusions again
What did I do?
The fool that I was
To profit from youthful mistakes?
So shameful to tell
Just how often I fell
In love with illusions again
Oh, a goddess with wings on her heels
