From the liner notes:

Halo Effect Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
What did I know?
Fool that I was
Little by little, I learned

To profit from youthful mistakes?

Just how often I fell
In love with illusions again
[Outro]
A goddess with wings on her heels ...
