Rush - Peke's Repose/Halo Effect (Clockwork Angels Tour) lyrics

[Rush - Peke's Repose/Halo Effect Clockwork Angels Tour lyrics]

I Had Fallen Helplessly In Love
With one of the performers
She was so different from "the
Girl I left behind
" and I was beginning to understand I
Had only pretended she was right
For me i pursued my beautiful
Acrobat obsessively until she
Let me be with her – then I
Suffered her rejection and
Contempt once again, i had
Created an ideal of the perfect soulmate
And tried to graft in onto her it didn't
Fit such illusions have colored my whole life

What did I see? Fool that I was
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 me betrayed
But they knew they could never tell me

What did I care? Fool that I was
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

So shameful to tell just how often I fell
In love with illusions again

A goddess with wings on her heels
