Monalisa - John Wolfhooker

I know I’m quite a reserved person

And sometimes hard to read

So I made you a reservation

For my reading in a private library

A few pages are missing

I recall them mostly after

Intensive make out with a glass

That often causes liquid laughter

But laughter and crying are living pretty close

Two lovely neighbours who fancy overdose

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night

To find these pages I thought I’ve lost

Under my pillow, it’s like a look in the mirror

I don’t want the world to see my cry

Are we all born just to die?

I’ve been trying so hard to hide the fight

In my mind I always lose but the goal ain’t to survive

But to win, live and love

Instead of another drink I swallow the pride

'cause I found a girl who holds me tight

I can’t deny that feelings can be controlled but tears never lie

Boys don’t cry that’s what they say

They made my mind a secret hideaway

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night

To find these pages I thought I’ve lost

(my secret hideaway)

Under my pillow, it’s like a look in the mirror
