Album:
Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection
She is a pyramid
But with him she's just a grain of sand
This love's too strong like mice and mems
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
Moved 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 --


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 
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
