Mona Lisa
Atlas Wynd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's in plain view
You rock just like a [?] I see right through
The sky is in your ego
I didn't know what I was doing to you
Now it's turned around and stabbed me in the back
I didn't know what I was doing to you
They'll conjure up something to bring you down
A wind that howls in harmony with the wolves
Quite the [?] is broken into two
I didn't know what I was doing to you
Now it's turned around and stabbed me in the back
I didn't know what I was doing to you
I hope that I don't see you coming back
Like Mona Lisa you sit and stare
With an ambiguous smile
We cannot stand one another
Like nails on a chalkboard you let out a screech
As I gather all the warnings, don't you ever come back
You ordered me to leave with a hidden gun up your sleeve
And although the room is dimly lit I'm still able to see it
I plead 'No, don't do it' as you draw a little closer
But I was locked in your stare
You got me right in [?]
The lyrics of Atlas Wynd's song "Mona Lisa" are about a toxic relationship that has ended badly for both parties involved. The first verse speaks about the singer's recognition of the truth, which is in plain view, and their perception that the other person is trying to be deceptive, but their true nature is transparent. The following lines refer to the other person's inflated ego, which fills up the sky and suggests a self-important attitude. The second verse highlights the singer's lack of understanding of the consequences of their actions, which have resulted in them being hurt in return. They express their pain from being stabbed in the back and their hope that they don't have to see the other person again.
The refrain mentions Mona Lisa, and the singer describes their relationship with the other person as two individuals who cannot stand each other. They compare the feeling of being around the other person to nails on a chalkboard, and state that they let out a screech. As they recall all of the warning signs, the singer pleads with the other person, but they're locked into an intense stare, and their partner strikes them right at the moment of weakness.
