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 (cane, cane, cane, cane)

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



PRE-CHORUS

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



CHORUS

Oh, she used to be a pearl (oh-h-h-h)

Yeah she used to rule the world (oh-h-h-h)

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

Cause she used to be a pearl



She was unstoppable

Moved fast just like an avalanche

But now she's stuck deep in cement

Wishing that they never ever met



PRE-CHORUS

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



CHORUS

Oh, she used to be a pearl (oh-h-h-h)

Yeah she used to rule the world (oh-h-h-h)

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-o-o-o)

You're the one that rules your world (oh-h-h-h)

You are strong, and you'll learn that you can still go on

And you'll always be a pearl



She is unstoppable
