With hair as black as coal, with eyes as blue as the sky

With a giggle that makes you laugh, with a sob that makes you cry.

Raven leggings, stone grey blazer,

I am one of the seven chasers.

Peach lips, rosy skin,

I am one that hides secrets within.

Candy gloves, watermelon slippers,

I am the one and only Princess of Winter.

I will not tell you my name, or where I'm from,

I will not tell you my age, or why any of us come.

We are the chasers, the protectors of the world.

We are only teenagers, we are only girls.

The other six don't know why they're here,

But I know the truth. I've seen the mirror.

I'm the Princess of the Winter, and I'm not ashamed.

And I know why I'm here, I know why I came.

I control the wind, I control the snow.

My brain is pounding with knowledge, because I know I know I know.

I know who I am, I know the battles that were lost,

I know about my family and the trials they came across.

I know all about the history of where I was born,

I was not born on Earth, and my planet shall be mourned.

It was destroyed long before I came along,

But I know every story every poem every song.

I know the truth about these girls, they don't know who they are.

They think they were born on this planet, the think they should trust their hearts.

They don't know what I know, that someone's looking for us.

That everyone in Paris are people we should trust.

But how do I know this, you may ask, and my other friends don't?

Well I'll tell you, right now, so remember to take notes.

I saw something I shouldn't, something that should've been clearer.

I looked into it, I looked into the mirror.

I act fun, I act happy, but inside I am different.

I'm a scared, lonely girl, I'm trembling like an infant.

My friends think I'm an excited, carefree young teenager.

But inside I know, I know I'm in danger.

The principal knows, she knows that I know.

She won't let me leave, she won't let me go.

The other girls, they're lucky, they can leave if they like.

But they don't want to, they think this college'll change their life.

It will, but not for the better. No, not for the better.

But they became part of it when they got their acceptance letters.

Only the smartest get into this school,

But it's really only the girls that are jewels.

When I say jewels, now, I mean royalty.

All these girls are princesses, they just don't believe.

I'm not allowed to tell them, the principal will kill me.

But I know I'm to precious for her to lay a finger on me.

If I die, the whole world will be in danger,

All of this because I go to the school in the Eiffel Tower.
