Mona Lisa Song Lyrics
Mona Lisa, ayy
Mona Lisa
Love is when you try to place it out your mind
But you can't turn a radio down
And you can't think of anyone else
And love is when you try to make it out alive
But you can't turn a radio down
And you can't think of anyone else
Uh-huh, look
I can see your face in Parisian paintings, the Mona Lisa
I can hear your voice in the streets and the TV stations, and the polices
I can feel the strains on my wrist, I don't need these bracelets
Of all the things that she keeps in cages
Uh, I'm at least as favorite, uh-huh, and she said-
I was 'bout to give you all of me on all the weekends
And all I wanted was apologies and all of your payroll
Over my hands, fallin' to my head
But all of my feels were already dead
And if I could rewind it for you
If you could remind me of
What I felt before I fell for your idea of love out here
Love is when you try to place it out your mind
But you can't turn a radio down
And you can't think of anyone else
And love is when you try to make it out alive
But you can't turn a radio down
And you can't think of anyone else
Uh, Mona Lisa, oh
Yeah, Mona Lisa, ayy
Yeah, Mona Lisa, uh, yeah
Yeah, Mona Lisa, oh
Mona Li-, uh-uh
Uh, Mona Lisa, oh, yeah
I know you like your space and distance
Yeah, you don't take admissions
They told you not to date musicians
Yeah, but can't make you listen
Stick to the ones who let you make (all the)
Decisions and look the other way (all the)
And you already know what your mother'll say (all the)
And you already know I'm a number away
I was 'bout to give you all of me on all the weekends
And all I wanted was apologies and all of your payroll
Over my hands, fallin' to my head
But all of my feels were already dead
And if I could rewind it for you
If you could remind me of
What I felt before I fell for your idea of love out here
Love is when you try to place it out your mind
But you can't turn a radio down
And you can't think of anyone else
And love is when you try to make it out alive
But you can't turn a radio down
And you can't think of anyone else
Uh, Mona Lisa, oh
Yeah, Mona Lisa, ayy
Yeah, Mona Lisa, uh, yeah
Yeah, Mona Lisa, oh
Mona Li-, uh-uh
Uh, Mona Lisa, oh, yeah
Duh-duh-duh, duh
Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh
Duh-duh-duh, duh
Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh

"Mona Lisa" by Dominic Fike is a complex ecploration of love and its entanglements with personal freedom and identity. The song's recurring motif of the Mona Lisa, an iconic symbol of enigmatic beauty, serves as a metaphor for a kind of love that is intensely captivating yet ultimately elusive and confining.
The lyrics, "Love is when you try to place it out your mind/But yoi can't turn a radio down/And you can't think of anyone else," depict love as an overwhelming and inescapable force. This analogy to a radio that can't be turned down suggests how love can dominate one's thoughts and emotions, becoming a constant, unignorable presence.
Fike uses vivid imagery to convey the depth of his feelings, as in "I can see your face in Parisian paintings, the Mona Lisa." This line portrays the lover as omnipresent and as hauntingly beautiful as the Mona Lisa, symbolizing an idealized and unattainable love. However, this romanticization is contrasted with the feeling of being trapped, hinted at by "I can feel the strains on my wrist, I don't need these bracelets/Of all the things that she keeps in cages." These lines suggest a struggle for autonomy within the relationship, where love feels both enchanting and restraining.
The song also touches on the theme of disillusionment with love, as expressed in "And all I wanted was apologies and all of your payroll/But all of my feels were already dead." Here, Fike expresses regret and a sense of emotional numbness, indicating that the relationship has left him feeling used and emotionally drained.
Overall, "Mona Lisa" captures the paradox of love: it's both deeply desirable and a source of profound emotional turmoil. Fike articulates the complex emotions of being consumed by love while yearning for freedom, echoing the timelessness and mystery of the Mona Lisa herself.
