A Pearl - Mitski

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 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... Ohh Yeah, she used to rule the world... Ohh 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'd 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... Ohh Yeah, she used to rule the world... Ohh 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, ohh, 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 shell, No You're the one that rules your world, ohh You are strong and you'll learn That you can still go on And you'll always be a pearl She is unstoppable

If I ever were to lose you I'd surely lose myself Everything I have found, dear I've not found by myself Try and sometimes you'll succeed To make this man of me All my stolen missing parts I've no need for anymore I believe And I believe 'cause I can see Our future days Days of you and me Back when I was feeling broken I focused on a prayer You came deep as any ocean Did something out there hear? All the complexities and games No one wins but somehow they're still played All the missing crooked hearts They may die but in us they live on I believe And I believe 'cause I can see Our future days Days of you and me When hurricanes and cyclones raged When winds turned dirt to dust When floods they came or tides they raised Ever closer became us All the promises at sundown I've meant them like the rest All the demons used to come 'round I'm grateful now they've left So persistent in my ways Hey, Angel, I am here to stay No resistance, no alarms Please, this is just too good to be gone I believe And I believe 'cause I can see Our future days Days of you and me You and me Days of you and me

If I keep holding out, will the light shine through? Under this broken roof, it's only rain that I feel I've been wishing out the days Oh-oh-oh, come back I have been planning out all that I'd say to you Since you slipped away, know that I still remain true I've been wishing out the days Please say, that if you hadn't of gone now I wouldn't have lost you another way From wherever you are Oh-oh, oh-oh, come back And these days, they linger on And in the night I've been waiting for The real possibility that I may meet you in my dreams I go to sleep If I don't fall apart, will my memories stay clear? So you had to go and I had to remain here But the strangest thing to date So far away and yet you feel so close And I'm not gonna question it any other way There must be an open door For you to come back And the days, they linger on And every night, what I'm waiting for Is the real possibility that I may meet you in my dreams Sometimes you're there and you're talking back to me Come the morning I could swear you're next to me And it's okay It's okay It's okay I'll be here Come back, come back I'll be here Come back, come back I'll be here Come back, come back

Sailing on my every step Inching off of the earth Is magnified by the things I've done The thing that I've become Every lift of my hand Coffee cup and back Is magnified by the things I've done The things I've seen The things I've caused I'm a dead man walking The hammer that I once brought down now hovers over me Cast a shadow across, onto me The hallways are all mocking me What I've become They're all mocking me I'm a dead man walking A dead man walking A dead man walking I'm a dead man walking Dead man walking Dead man walking
