Monologue (Beck)

How did we get here?

You are used to immersing yourself in fairy tales as a sanctuary.

But what you love is that cold.

Tremble with fear when you find the body of the wife of a cruel husband.

When Prince Charming puts on your crystal slippers and the shoes fit perfectly, you are so happy that you are moved.

But on campus, with the real princess floating around you in the autumn wind, you see the gulf between yourself and the rich girl and swear to stop believing in fairy tales.

But the story is buried deep in my heart, like a poison.

If Prince Charming really exists, if he can save you, you need to be saved from all injustice.

When is he coming?

The answer is countless instant cruel shrugs.

It was Smith's sad sneer when he didn't even lie when he called you fat man.

It was Uncle Jeff's molestation on you in the Thanksgiving kitchen.

It's the accusation in your father's eyes when you tell the truth.

From every boy you've loved, made out, and disguised as a man, you finally understand that there is no magic that can turn a beast into a prince.

You surround yourself with girls who you hate and wish to share in their power.

You hate yourself, that makes you weak and vulnerable.

Then, when you feel like you're going to disappear, he notices you.

You know deep down that everything is too good to be true, but you let yourself sink in because he is the first person to give you hope.

In his castle, you discover the truth.

Prince Charming and cruel husband are the same person.

It's impossible to have a happy ending unless you love both.

Isn't that what you want? to be loved.

Don't you want him to put the crown on you? Isn't that what you want?
