[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 [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)
