oyster

My world is an oyster
I am on and off-screen
You are in the clouds while I am
At the bottom of the sea
I am floating under all the pressure
Up, up, up, so I can breathe
Crack open just to spit out treasure
Closing in between my teeth

Swim by, don't cry
This life can't die
Don't hide, it's fine
Just try, get high

It gets so hard to keep up with all of the broken parts I leave
Leave 'em laying down in the dark, down in the dark
Leave 'em laying down in the dark, down in the dark, oh
Gets so hard to keep up with all of the broken parts I leave
Leave 'em laying down in the dark, down in the dark
Leave 'em laying down in the dark, down in the dark, oh

My world is an oyster
And my heart is a pearl
You can find it if you're lucky
But be careful with a special girl
I am floating under all the pressure
Giving up what I don't need
I'm the salt and all the seaweed, baby
I'm the fish and I'm the feed

Swim by, don't cry
This life can't die
Don't hide, it's fine
Just try, get high

It gets so hard to keep up with all of the broken parts I leave
Leave 'em laying down in the dark, down in the dark
Leave 'em laying down in the dark, down in the dark, oh
Gets so hard to keep up with all of the broken parts I leave
Leave 'em laying down in the dark, down in the dark
Leave 'em laying down in the dark, down in the dark, oh
