The Effect lyrics
by Precious Pepala
[Verse 1]
"Mirror, mirror on the wall"
Isn't what she said at all
Memories, memories
I'm not sure
Were they ever real or were they forged?
[Pre-Chorus]
Have I been deceived?
Should I even grieve?
Was it all make believe?
If I could replay all the golden days
Would they be cold and grey?
[Chorus]
What if it was all a lie?
What if we were never fine?
What if it's all just in my head?
Part of the effect
And if it was all a dream
What a nightmare it would be
To wake up in my bed
To break the effect
[Verse 2]
"Mirror, mirror on the wall"
Isn't what she said, it never was
I'm blinding by gaslights
And pictures of snow white smiles
But if I turn them upside down
I see a more familiar frown
[Pre-Chorus]
Have I been deceived?
Should I even grieve?
Was it all make believe?
[Chorus]
What if it was all a lie?
What if we were never fine?
What if it's all just in my head?
Part of the effect
And if it was all a dream
What a nightmare it would be
To wake up in my bed
[Outro]
"Mirror, mirror" wasn't ever what she said
How could I forget?
How could we all forget?
"Mirror, mirror on the wall"
Wasn't what she said at all
