"A Pearl"

You're growing tired of me

You love me so hard and I still can't sleep

You're growing tired of me

And all the things I don't talk about

Sorry, I don't want your touch

It's not that I don't want you

Sorry, I can't take your touch

It's just that I fell in love with a war

Nobody told me it ended

And it left a pearl in my head

And I roll it around every night

Just to watch it glow

Every night, baby, that's where I go

Sorry, I don't want your touch

It's not that I don't want you

Sorry, I can't take your touch

There's a hole that you fill

You fill, you fill

But it's just that I fell in love with a war

And nobody told me it ended

And it left a pearl in my head

And I roll it around every night

Just to watch it glow

Every night, baby, that's where I go

Just to watch it glow
