Rush - Halo Effect lyrics

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 Oh little by little, I learned My friends were dismayed To see me 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 A goddess with wings on her heels...
