Lamya - Black Mona Lisa Lyrics

But oh I am not afraid

To be a lone bohemian

I can paint a portrait of myself

I will call me a black Mona Lisa

Mona Lisa

Come to discover - I am your daughter

The sky above me is silent and empty

I am an island

A little freak of melancholy

But these hands

They unbead your rosary of wisdom



Bewitched, spellbound I'm found

And returned from superstition

You are my martyr

I'm a vestige of a revolution

My alma, my mater

And now I can let go

My old addictive solutions



CHORUS



I used to be a connoisseur

Of hate, self hate, paternal hate

Hate cum gratis

I connected every kind



Sipping it like red wine

The insecurity was mine

The ties that bind were

My design



But oh I am not afraid

To be a lone bohemian



The sun is still unkind

To those like you and me

Seekers of sanctuary

Though I'm not afraid

I'm sanctified and fortified

Because you sacrified

I can call myself Mona Lisa

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa,

Men have adored you
