The song title pays homage to an old ghost story where you spin around 3 times and say Bloody Mary into a mirror. A woman would then emerge from the mirror looking for murder.
The song title also is a reference to Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, a twin sister actress duo.
[Verse 1]
It's only a game
I hadn’t thought about it in years
Repeated her name
Three times into the mirror
The candles went out
And you started to laugh
Well, I heard a sound in the attic
But you don't believe in all of that
[Chorus]
Are you real or fake?
Are you alive? Am I awake?
This must be some kinda mistake
A trick of the eyes or the drugs that I'm takin’
[Verse 2]
Walked through the door
With some gasoline in a can
Put some on the floor
In the shape of a pentagram
And I lit a match
As we stood in a circle
Flames shootin' up to the sky like some vision of hell
Satan send me a signal, there's
Blood in the sink
There's blood on the windows
I need a drink
I need to, I need to, I need to know
[Chorus]
Are you real or fake?
Are you alive? Am I awake?
This must be some kinda mistake
A trick of the eyes or the drugs that I'm takin'
Are you real or fake?
Do you prefer Ashley or Mary Kate?
And who let you outta your grave?
Can anyone see this or am I just trippin'?
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
Are you real or fake?
Are you alive? Am I awake?
This must be some kinda mistake
A trick of the eyes or the drugs that I'm takin’
Are you real or fake?
Do you prefer Ashley or Mary Kate?
And who let you outta your grave?
Can anyone see this or am I just trippin’?
