Pearl

She is a pyramid

But with him, she's just a grain of sand

This love's too strong

Like mice and men

Squeezing out the life that should be let in

She was a hurricane

But now she's just a gust of wind

She used to set the sails of a thousand ships

Was a force to be reckoned with

She could be a Statue of Liberty

She could be a Joan of Arc

But he's scared of the light that's inside of her

So he keeps her in the dark

Oh, she used to be a pearl, oh

Oh, she used to rule the world, oh

Can't believe she's become a shell of herself

'Cause she used to be a pearl

She was unstoppable

Move fast just like an avalanche

But now she's stuck deep in cement

Wishing that they never, ever met

She could be a Statue of Liberty

She could be a Joan of Arc

But he's scared of the light that's inside of her

So he keeps her in the dark

Oh, she used to be a pearl, oh

Yeah, she used to rule the world, oh

Can't believe she's become a shell of herself

'Cause she used to be a

Do you know that there's a way out, there's a way out

There's a way out, there's a way out?

You don't have to be held down, be held down

Be held down, be held down

'Cause I used to be a shell

Yeah, I let him rule my world

My world, oh yeah

But I woke up and grew strong

And I can still go on

And no one can take my pearl

You don't have to be a shell, no

You're the one that rules your world, oh

You are strong and you'll learn

That you can still go on

And you'll always be a, a pearl

She is unstoppable
