Like a Pearl
guitar chords lyrics
this is every step I shuffle but couldn't really take
this is every rock you wouldn't lift, you knew you'd find a snake
there's a branch heavy over my head, I wish the ice would break
but every new calamity is just a cheap scene for the inevitable great escape
feel its culture like a pearl
in the black heart of this world
feel its culture like a pearl
in the black heart of this world
yeah
there's a black heart to this world
this is every drop of blood in a war you sold for cash
this is every awkward teenage boy never coming back
there's a sword hanging over your head, don't fall it back
optimism is a shiny thing, and we're easy to distract
this is every hopeful plan we knew would fall apart
there's a sword hanging over your head, don't fall it back
optimism is a shiny thing, and we're easy to distract
this is every hopeful plan we knew would fall apart
this is every secret lever to the trap door in your heart
there's a path under centuries of scum where shines the light
but as we shuffle through our days who has the energy to fight?
feel its culture like a pearl
in the black heart of this world
yeah
feel its culture like a pearl
in the black heart of this world
oh yeah yeah yeah
there's a black heart to this world
oh yeah yeah yeah
there's a black heart to this world
oh yeah yeah yeah
there's a black heart to this world
