I am the Princess behind the Frog.
Beauty hidden by a Beast.
What do you want from me?
Afraid.
That's what I am.
Afraid of you.
By saying yes, I put my heart in your hands.
Please don't hurt me, don't make me have to try.
I hate living in fear.
Sitting across from you, afraid of your judgment.
Of all the girls in our school, you chose me.
Why?
My face has nothing to offer,
Neither does my body.
Inside & out I am awkward.
Everytime I open my mouth, out comes a croak.
Couldn't you have chosen some one else?
Some one who could make this so much easier for you?
I live in a constant state of chaos,
Hopping from place to place
Ribbiting as I go along my way.
You, of all people, why did you want me?
Why not a girl whose beauty is breath taking?
Or a girl whose heart is far less fragile?
Maybe a charming china doll would be better,
Better than the Princess behind the Frog.
I will croak & leap & ribbit a lot,
Not many things I do make sense.
Run by impulse my mind will seem.
But I can promise, if you loved me
Time could not erase you from my mind.
Pain will not sharpen my tone with you.
My love would be hard, but it would be strong
As a frog, I build power into my leaps
So that the Princess behind the Frog can fall out.
