mona lisa

(álbum: rising - 2022)

I've always played the part of Shakespeare
I hide behind the ink and pen
I build up worlds and choose a savior
I write beginning, middle, end

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 someway to turn it around
Looking for someone to give me the crown
I wanna feel like I finally matter

I wanna be a Mona Lisa
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

So is there anybody out there
Who can 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
Tired of stories for somebody else
Think that I'm ready to start a new chapter

I've been looking for someway to turn it around
Looking for someone to give me the crown
I wanna feel like I finally matter

I wanna be a Mona Lisa
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

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

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
