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... 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

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 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
