Hermit The Frog
Marina The Diamonds Lyrics

Yeah I feel I'm watered down
I feel like a weaker version of myself when he's around

Whenever he's around
In his presence

I put on the crown of clowns
I pretend to be happy and fun-loving, but internally I feel like a clown

And melt slowly to the ground
I become mentally and emotionally drained and feel defeated

Yeah I feel it coming on
I can sense when I'm about to have a breakdown

When I've been static for too long
When I've been stuck in one place or situation for too long

And an explosion comes in time
Then a sudden burst of emotions or energy occurs

Before I go and cross the line
Before I do something regrettable or dangerous

They say you used to be so kind
Others have mentioned that he used to be a nicer person

I never knew you had such a dirty mind
I was unaware that you had impure thoughts or motives

Well, I went to the doctors believing
I sought medical help thinking that something was wrong with me

The devil had control over me and
I thought that my actions or thoughts were being influenced by evil

I was finding it hard to breath in
I had trouble breathing due to feeling overwhelmed or anxious

Finding it hard to fight the feeling
Struggling to resist negative thoughts or impulses

When my heart just burst like a glass balloon
When my emotions become overwhelming and shatter like fragile glass

I let it fly too high and shattered too soon
I let my emotions get out of control and broke under the pressure

I was the wrong damn girl in the wrong damn room
I was in the wrong place and situation that caused me trouble

I broke my glass balloon
I let myself shatter and break down emotionally

They call him Hermit the Frog
Others know him by the nickname 'Hermit the Frog'

He's looking for a dog
He is searching for a companion or friend

Did you find your bitch in me
Did you find a source of negativity or discomfort in me?

Oh you're an abominable socially
You are extremely awkward or uncomfortable in social situations

You're just a little bit too much like me
You and I share similar traits or experiences

Well baby I give you your dirty mind
I am acknowledging and accepting my own impure thoughts

Well I
Well, as for me

I wanna tell you a secret
I want to share something with you

You can take your double standard love and keep it
You can keep your hypocritical love for yourself

I can't help the devil likes to make my heart a double bed
I cannot resist negative thoughts and feelings from taking over and controlling me

I can't help he sometimes likes to come and rest his little head
I cannot prevent negative thoughts and emotions from occurring

We let them fly too high and they shattered too soon
We let our emotions get too intense and then break apart too quickly

They'll be the wrong damn people in the wrong damn room
They will be in the wrong place and situation, which will lead to trouble

We broke our glass balloons
We allowed ourselves to break down emotionally

Let go of my glass balloon
I am releasing my emotional baggage and letting go of negativity
