Lyrics Monochromatic - Mary Lambert

Monochromatic

Every morning it’s the same thing
Sidewalks of people with who cares stares
My heart’s too big for this city
My heart’s too big for my own body
My heart’s too big for you to understand me
When I close my eyes
I dream in color
But my life’s in black and white
Will it ever get better
I’m not monochromatic
Nobody’s monochromatic
Everybody’s hurting
There’s nothing more human than that
See the pieces of heart’s missing
But watch how the light fills the cracks
My heart’s too big for the city
My heart’s too big for my own body
My heart’s too big for you to understand me
Please understand me
When I close my eyes
I dream in color
My life’s in black and white
But it’ll get better
I’m not monochromatic
Nobody’s monochromatic
Nobody’s monochromatic
I’m not monochromatic
