about

a pearl is created through pain... interesting that some people need to suffer to find love...

lyrics

If you feel the grain
that burns inside,
would you let it rule your world?
Or would you coat the pain
until you turn
the sand into a pearl?
Tell me…

I know my pain leads to your pleasure…

If I tell you the truth,
you know, it might
bring me to my knees
(I’m afraid to tell you how I feel…)
‘cause here in my shell,
I cherish the pain
that slowly makes me bleed
(In your arms my fantasy becomes real…)

(I know my pain leads to your pleasure…)

We can play this dangerous game…
…if you’d like too,
I might just let you in…
If you’d like to,
I might just let you in…
Tell me now, who is the slave,
who is the master?


(Tell me now, who is the grain,
who is the maker?
Tell me now, who is the sand,
who is the treasure?
Coat my blood around your heart,
Why must we suffer?)
