Caterpillar
Pretty faces, pretty girls
Perfect bodies, eyelashes curled
Like butterflies
Beautiful and bright
I'm just a caterpillar
Who can't take flight
If only you could look a little closer
I'm more than what I seem
It's hard to keep up with all these
Butterflies who belong in magazines
If I had wings
Could you see me then?
The truth is I can't be like them
So if this isn't enough
I guess I'll have to give you up
'Cause though I'm just a caterpillar
I still need some love
Imperfections make you perfect they say
But they taught us
Those were flaws in the first place
Hey, just be you
But change everything too
Which version of me do you want to choose?
If I had wings
Could you see me then?
The truth is I can't be like them
So if this isn't enough
I guess I'll have to give you up
'Cause though I'm just a caterpillar
I still need some love
I don't like coffee
And I talk too much
I don't like driving
I'm too quick to trust
Yeah-my-self esteem
Lives on the bottom floor
But that's what I'm in therapy for
I've got some scars
And a crooked heart
And I don't need somebody's approval to be me
Though I'm a caterpillar, I still believe
I'm enough
I'm enough
I'm enough
I'm enough, I'm enough
I'm enough, I'm enough
I'm enough, I'm enough
I'm enough
Though I'm just a caterpillar
Though I'm just a caterpillar
I'm still loved
Perfect bodies, eyelashes curled
Like butterflies
Beautiful and bright
I'm just a caterpillar
Who can't take flight
If only you could look a little closer
I'm more than what I seem
It's hard to keep up with all these
Butterflies who belong in magazines
If I had wings
Could you see me then?
The truth is I can't be like them
So if this isn't enough
I guess I'll have to give you up
'Cause though I'm just a caterpillar
I still need some love
Imperfections make you perfect they say
But they taught us
Those were flaws in the first place
Hey, just be you
But change everything too
Which version of me do you want to choose?
If I had wings
Could you see me then?
The truth is I can't be like them
So if this isn't enough
I guess I'll have to give you up
'Cause though I'm just a caterpillar
I still need some love
I don't like coffee
And I talk too much
I don't like driving
I'm too quick to trust
Yeah-my-self esteem
Lives on the bottom floor
But that's what I'm in therapy for
I've got some scars
And a crooked heart
And I don't need somebody's approval to be me
Though I'm a caterpillar, I still believe
I'm enough
I'm enough
I'm enough
I'm enough, I'm enough
I'm enough, I'm enough
I'm enough, I'm enough
I'm enough
Though I'm just a caterpillar
Though I'm just a caterpillar
I'm still loved
