乐曲内容
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
M.o.v.e 500米口径球面射电望远镜 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
