Pale and Unhealthy

Words and music by Joe Dickinson

 

Listening to the silent night

There's a hole in every light

I won't let it be

I'm alive you see

 

There's always a way to be alone

One can never truly be known

Fess up to the fact

That there's nothing you lack

 

Pale and unhealthy like you've

Given up on being

Who you know that you are deep down inside

It's like you've given up your life

It's not right

It's not right

 

Trying to paint an accurate pose

Is it possible to come close

To catching to the sun

Wouldn't it burn everyone?

 

Hanging on to the edge of a cliff

Over a never-ending pit

Of dark despair

Will I fall or will I get back up there

 

Pale and unhealthy like you've

Given up on being

Who you know that you are deep down inside

It's like you've given up your life

It's not right

It's not right

 

This is not what it seems

I've been dying I've been living in my dreams

Waking up to a face

That can never be erased

 

Pale and unhealthy like you've

Given up on being

Who you know that you are deep down inside

It's like you've given up your life

It's like you've given up your life

It's like you've given up your life
