mona lisa (slowed)

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

I'm so tired of being a book on the shelf (book on the shelf)

Tired of stories for somebody else (for 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)

I wanna feel like I finally matter

I wanna be a Mona Lisa, ahh ah

The kinda girl that you can dream of, ahh 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

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

I'm so tired of being a book on the shelf (book on the shelf)

Tired of stories for somebody else (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 (turn it around)

Looking for someone to give me the crown (give me the crown)

I wanna feel like I finally matter

I wanna be a Mona Lisa, ahh ah (wanna be a Mona Lisa, baby)

The kinda girl that you can dream of, ahh ah (the kinda girl 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

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

Ahh ah ahh ahh ah (let me be your muse, my baby)

Ahh ah ahh ahh ah (the kinda girl that you can dream of)

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

Ahh ah ah ahh ah
