"Echo" lyrics

Janani K. Jha Lyrics

"Echo"

There was a girl, there was I girl I knew
There was a girl I knew who had a way with words (not hers)
She was the wind, she was the wind that blew
She was the ingénue of someone else's verse
Haven't you heard? I think I heard it
Some of the birds, I heard 'em chirping:
"Who said it first?" "What was the verdict?"
You'll do the crime as long as it's perfect

There's an echo in the night
You take what you can find
And twist it like it's twine
To crown yourself the queen of what is mine

Echo (echo)
Echo (echo)
Echo (echo)
Echo (echo, echo, echo-)

You are a nuisance (nuisance)
Go get a new schtick (new schtick)
Wish that I knew this (knew this)
This isn't you, sis (you, sis)
"Who said it best?" ("who said it best?")
"What a resemblance!" ("what a resemblance!")
You think this works, art for attention to feed an obsession?

There's an echo in the night
You take what you can find (you'll take what you can find)
And twist it like it's twine
To crown yourself the queen of what is mine

Echo (echo) (oh)
Echo (echo) (oh)
Echo (echo) (oh)
Echo (echo) (oh)
Echo (echo) (ah)
Echo (echo) (oh)
Echo (echo) (oh)
Echo (echo) (oh)

How will your countefeit last? (count your last)
I'm certain this too shall pass (I'll surpass)
Look at me and manifest (get money fast)
My reflection in your glass

There's an echo in the night
You take what you can find
And twist it like a knife
To crown yourself the queen of what was mine

Echo (echo)
Echo (echo)
Echo (echo)
Echo (echo)
Echo (echo)
Echo (echo)
Echo (echo)
Echo (echo, echo, echo)
