Lily Frost - Pearl Lyrics

Here I am
On the edge of success
And I'm thinking I should
Start having babies

I've got the stage
All to myself
And I'm tempted to smoke
Marlboro Red

I guess I'm scare of actualising
Of becoming who I know I can be
Instead of accepting uneasy unknowing
I want to sabotage everything
Sliding away is simpler than staying
It's like cutting a blossom
Before it has bloomed
I convince myself of every distraction
And I truly believe
What is so wrong is so right

I guess I'm scared of actualising
Of becoming who I know I can be
Instead of accepting uneasy unknowing
I want to sabotage everything

I could pretend all of my life
And live like a chrysalis
It's safer there
Unaware I can hide

I should be near but I've gone to Tahiti
And I don't have a phone
If you wanted to reach me
So here I stand
All alone and afraid
With my pearl from the sea
My black pearl from the sea
Polishing it for you
To see
