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 (Book on the shelf)
Tired of stories for somebody else (Somebody else)
Think that I'm ready to start a new chapter
I've been looking for some way to turn it around (Turn it around)
Looking for someone to give me the crown (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 (Book on the shelf) Tired of stories for somebody else (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 (Turn it around)
Looking for someone to give me the crown (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)
