The Princess and the Frog by GammaGirl Lyrics
I don’t hate myself, hate is a very strong word
But I can take hate in moderation, as I loom
Over my own shoulders
I feel just how tight they are
As the skin brakes under the pressure of muscle and bone
The framework shatters, I see me, can anyone else see me?
And for what it’s worth this is as close to feeling real as I'm ever gonna feel
In your arms, I shrink. I think I'm human
Do you think that I belong here?
I was thinking about it earlier
And then I realised how stupid the question was
Becausе, I don’t think I belong to anywhere
Lеave me alone
I feel like clawing myself apart so that piece by piece I'm me
I'm a teenage girl not a hulking monster
I know I don't deserve to love her
I'm a teenage, stupid, insecure, disgusting, self-destructive alien
For your own sake leave me alone
Do you think that ghosts are happy
For the most part content with the life they left behind
It feels like I should be absent
Float downstream and watch you smile from the outside
And I know deep down I'm loveable
But it's hard to know when you don't own your own reflection
Did you know it tried to pull me in, strip me down and make me stare at how I see me
I wish I couldn't see me
Please don't leave me alone
I know I'm a burden but please I'm not strong enough to face me
I'm a teenage girl not a hulking monster
I know I don't deserve to love her
I'm a teenage, stupid, insecure, disgusting, self-destructive alien
But please don’t leave me alone
And from my chest I can feel a knot tying me down, beating me senseless
All I've ever been all I am is yours your pride and joy you kiss me
As the floor beneath my feet swallows me whole drowning in compliments
The concrete fills my lungs, set in stone a statuette
Of a skin thin
Disguise, a tale of baggy eyes and brittle bones and sunken cheeks and it's all yours for the low low price of dignity and happiness and joy and smiles and innocence
What I'd give to be naïve for only a day
I don't think that I can stand me anymore
But I can take hate in moderation, as I loom
Over my own shoulders
I feel just how tight they are
As the skin brakes under the pressure of muscle and bone
The framework shatters, I see me, can anyone else see me?
And for what it’s worth this is as close to feeling real as I'm ever gonna feel
In your arms, I shrink. I think I'm human
Do you think that I belong here?
I was thinking about it earlier
And then I realised how stupid the question was
Becausе, I don’t think I belong to anywhere
Lеave me alone
I feel like clawing myself apart so that piece by piece I'm me
I'm a teenage girl not a hulking monster
I know I don't deserve to love her
I'm a teenage, stupid, insecure, disgusting, self-destructive alien
For your own sake leave me alone
Do you think that ghosts are happy
For the most part content with the life they left behind
It feels like I should be absent
Float downstream and watch you smile from the outside
And I know deep down I'm loveable
But it's hard to know when you don't own your own reflection
Did you know it tried to pull me in, strip me down and make me stare at how I see me
I wish I couldn't see me
Please don't leave me alone
I know I'm a burden but please I'm not strong enough to face me
I'm a teenage girl not a hulking monster
I know I don't deserve to love her
I'm a teenage, stupid, insecure, disgusting, self-destructive alien
But please don’t leave me alone
And from my chest I can feel a knot tying me down, beating me senseless
All I've ever been all I am is yours your pride and joy you kiss me
