Katy Perry - Pearl lyrics

Tweet

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 Yeah, she used to rule the world 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 Yeah, she used to rule the world Can't believe she's become a shell of herself 'Cause she used to be a pearl 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 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 You are strong And you'll learn That you can still go on And you'll always be a pearl She is unstoppable

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
Yeah, she used to rule the world
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
Yeah, she used to rule the world
Can't believe she's become a shell of herself
'Cause she used to be a pearl

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
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
You are strong
And you'll learn
That you can still go on
And you'll always be a pearl

She is unstoppable
