Burn Mona Lisa (Acoustic)

Too many nights
Locked up in this cell
Told me your love was good
But it burned like hell
And I see through unopened eyes
Platinum dreams are my future
That's what I surmise

Drownin' out sounds of you, baby
Haven't been feelin' myself lately
Eluding these walls that contain me
Goodbye to the petals of the daisy

Burn Mona Lisa
You're not as perfect as I thought you were
Keep your eyes locked on me
Well, I'll escape your binding glare
Yeah, you're the hand that feeds me
But I see past those oil pastels
Say you don't want to hurt me
But you might as well

Can't look to the past now
Forever it's black now
I'm not going back, no no
Find strength in some whiskey
Try to fight me I'm not losing
'Cause I'm the owner of myself again

Drownin' out sounds of you, baby
Haven't been feelin' myself lately
Eluding these walls that contain me
Goodbye to the petals of the daisy

Burn Mona Lisa
You're not as perfect as I thought you were
Keep your eyes locked on me
Well, I'll escape your binding glare
Yeah, you're the hand that feeds me
But I see past those oil pastels
Say you don't want to hurt me
But you might as well

Stop, take a look around
I used to think you were beautiful
But what are you now?
And underneath those brush strokes
Without that mask that you put on
Oh, you're such a joke

Drownin' out sounds of you, baby
Haven't been feelin' myself lately
Eluding these walls that contain me
Goodbye to the petals of the daisy

Burn Mona Lisa
You're not as perfect as I thought you were
Keep your eyes locked on me
Well, I'll escape your binding glare
Yeah, you're the hand that feeds me
But I see past those oil pastels
Say you don't want to hurt me
Well, I hurt myself
