Here's the thing about a mollusk Sometimes from a distance you can think you've glimpsed a pearl inside So you get closer to investigate but the thing clenches tight It's a defense mechanism; you know this So you fight, and struggle to get the **** thing open Your fingers bleed Your muscles ache You begin to believe that it will never break Really going through something But right when you're about to give up, it loosens And you gaze inside to find Nothing What you thought was a pearl was just a trick of the light I've had it with this girl It's over alright
