Lazarus Blackstar - Tragedy Of The Monochrome Man Lyrics

Lost control of all my senses
Lost control of my mind
I never thought it would go this far
And I apologise
Whatever happened to my self esteem?
Just take a look at me now
Oh, the tragedy of me
I'm the Monochrome Man

But I am the prisoner
The one you lock the door behind
Now I take a look at it
Take a better look at things

Pleasure, pain
The same mistakes again
I do it for the company
All for your company

Scream my name
Your face still remains
Cos I know I know you'll never leave
I know you'll never leave me…
Alone

Nobody ever leaves me on my own

But take a look at me now
I'm the Monochrome Man
It's the tragedy of me cos
I'm the Monochrome Man

But take a look at me now
Take a look at who's laughing now

My god can't help me now

Locked inside my own four walls
I'm too scared to go outside
Live a like a rat in this stinking hole
But I've never felt so alive
Never taken seriously
I get by with all I can
All I ask is you stay with me here
With the Monochrome Man

But I am not the guilty
It's the way that you created me
Now you are responsible
I'm your responsibility

My new obsession
My f*cking possession
But I can't control the images
Can't control the images
Look at my face
Now look at my face!
Cos I know you're never leaving
I know you'll never leave me…
Alone

Nobody ever leaves me on my own

But take a look at me now
I'm the Monochrome Man
It's the tragedy of me cos
I'm the Monochrome Man

But take a look at me now
Take a look at who's laughing now
Take a look at me now
