|
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 |
