[00:13.41]Pearl in the hollow of my hand
[00:17.67]Quiet as a buried plan
[00:20.85]I used to hate the weight I knew
[00:24.66]All that pressure I went through
[00:27.54]Now I look closer
[00:30.45]Maybe I was not just hurt
[00:33.99]Maybe time beneath the dirt
[00:38.07]Made a little worth
[00:43.53]Pearl, I was made by pressure too
[00:48.63]Soft white proof of what I grew through
[00:59.16]Pearl, nothing loud to show
[01:02.43]Still I learned to glow this low
[01:08.49]Pearl, I am enough
[01:14.55]I kept my shine under my sleeve
[01:18.06]Thought it was safer not to need
[01:21.24]But every year I swallowed down
[01:24.99]Made a moon without a sound
[01:28.38]Inside the silence
[01:31.23]Maybe I was not just hurt
[01:34.83]Maybe time beneath the dirt
[01:38.91]Made a little worth
[01:44.88]Pearl, I was made by pressure too
[01:49.38]Soft white proof of what I grew through
[01:58.65]Pearl, nothing loud to show
[02:03.21]Still I learned to glow this low
[02:09.24]Pearl, I am enough
[02:13.86]Do not polish me too clean
[02:16.89]I want the years still underneath
[02:20.13]They belong to me
[02:27.03]Pearl, I was made by pressure too
[02:31.98]Soft white proof of what I grew through
[02:41.67]Pearl, nothing loud to show
[02:45.66]Still I learned to glow this low
[02:51.63]Pearl, I am enough
[02:59.16]I keep myself this bright
