Cloak And Dagger
Mona Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come like secret dances
Show me the shadows of your mind
Take me to a place where
There are things you've tried to hide

Come like cloak and dagger
Show me the madness in your stance
This just vicious lover
I'm just trying to understand

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Tell me I'm the wild one
Others locked up while I ride
You're the reason I'm stuck
Can't you see I've lost my pride

Ooh, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

And I'm strung out
And wanting, wanting
And you can't fight
Knowing that it feels right
And everything around tonight
Keeps making me lose sight

So just remember me
And all the things I wanna be
Just let me know that you believe
Just let me know that you believe





Ooh, oh, oh
Ooh, oh, oh

Line by Line Meaning

Come like secret dances
Approach me like a hidden, enigmatic dance


Show me the shadows of your mind
Reveal the hidden corners of your thinking and emotions to me


Take me to a place where there are things you've tried to hide
Bring me to a location where you have kept secrets from others


Come like cloak and dagger
Approach me in a secretive, mysterious manner


Show me the madness in your stance
Expose the seemingly irrational aspects of your demeanor


This just vicious lover
I am a passionate, perhaps even aggressive, lover


I'm just trying to understand
I am seeking to comprehend you fully


Tell me I'm the wild one
Affirm that I am the one who lives life with passion and excitement


Others locked up while I ride
I am enjoying life freely while others are trapped or restricted


You're the reason I'm stuck
You are the cause of my emotional paralysis


Can't you see I've lost my pride
Don't you see that I have lost my self-respect


And I'm strung out and wanting, wanting
I am overwhelmed and aching deeply


And you can't fight knowing that it feels right
It's difficult or impossible to resist the pull of what feels right


And everything around tonight keeps making me lose sight
The environment, events, or circumstances around me tonight are causing me to lose focus


So just remember me
Don't forget about me


And all the things I wanna be
Recall my hopes, dreams, and desires


Just let me know that you believe
Assure me that you have faith in me
