Mother of Pearl

A cool day for a tidal wave Drowned impressions falsely made A cold stare makes light of this Size me up, make sure that it fits And I'll be so nonchalant You can call me, call if you want I know you've thought of this Down the hammer, case dismissed Guilty's the sun whose shadow's in doubt The argument's weak, the jury's still out I won't say anything But write it in the sky Mother of pearl We took a photograph You looked upset, so I tore it in half You screamed I wasn't fair The picture was proof that you didn't care And I'll see you get ahead Writing the words that I should have said Death to the one accused Goodbyes were written, none of them used Guilty's the sun whose shadow's in doubt The argument's weak, the jury's still out I won't say anything Just write it in the sky Mother of pearl Guilty's the sun who swallows in doubt The testament's weak, the jury's still out He won't say anything Just write it in the sky Mother of pearl A cruel death, a perfect defense I slept through the work But the cover made sense Guilty's the one who's always in doubt The argument's weak, the jury's still out I won't say anything But write it in the sky Mother of pearl Guilty's the sun whose shadow's in doubt The argument's weak, the jury's still out I won't say anything But write it in the sky Mother of pearl Guilt is the one thing we could do without Judgement, the anvil, it's weighting us down We could do anything We write it in the sky Mother of pearl
