Shortcut to a Masterpiece Lyrics
Got the books and took the words
So I could make them mine to give
Got your story, stole your life
So I could make it mine to live
Maybe if I lived like them
My genius would be released
But for now I'm searching for
A shortcut to a masterpiece
I just want to know where it's hiding
So I'm breaking every rule I've learned
All of my intentions colliding
Should I steal or watch my papers burn
And now I'm stuck on this worn out track again
Asking who am I to even lift a pen
And now I'm stuck on this worn out track once more
Walking where you've been before
Gathered all my heroes
But my brilliant scheme just made me numb
Only made it clear what an imposter
I have become
I just want to know where it's hiding
So I'm breaking every rule I've learned
All of my intentions colliding
Should a thief give something in return
