mona lisa

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've always played the part of Shakespeare I hide behind the ink and pen I build up worlds and choose a savior (Savior, savior) I write beginning, middle, end [Pre-Chorus] I'm so tired of being a book on the shelf Tired of stories for somebody else Think that I'm ready to start a new chapter I've been looking for some way to turn it around Looking for someone to give me the crown And I wanna feel like I finally matter [Chorus] I wanna be a Mona Lisa, ah-ah The kinda girl that you can dream of, ah-ah And I always had the words, but I don't wanna say it Wish I could paint a smile on my face I wanna be a Mona Lisa [Verse 2] So is there anybody out there Who could change my point of view? The way that Van Gogh uses yellow or the self in Frida Kahlo I could be that for you [Pre-Chorus] I'm so tired of being a book on the shelf Tired of stories for somebody else Think that I'm ready to start a new chapter (Think I'm ready, baby) I've been looking for some way to turn it around Looking for someone to give me the crown I wanna feel like I finally matter [Chorus] I wanna be a Mona Lisa, ah-ah (I wanna be a Mona Lisa, baby) The kinda girl that you can dream of, ah-ah (The kinda that you can dream of maybe) And I always had the words, but I don't wanna say it Wish I could paint a smile on my face I wanna be a Mona Lisa [Bridge] I think I'm ready for my close-up, baby There's nothing left to do and nothing left to lose Let me be your muse Ah-ah (I wanna be a Mona Lisa, baby) Ah-ah (The kind of girl that you can dream of) [Outro] And I always had the words, but I don't wanna say it Wish I could paint a smile on my face I wanna be a Mona Lisa (Ah-ah)
