Pale Horse Lyrics by The Northern

Cloudburst

2020

Too many faces are drifting away
One after another, their eyes roll into their head
Leaving the skin a cold pale blue
Leaving your skin so cold and so pale blue
I know this hurts and feels like hell
Why won’t this go away
Please make it stay away
Just go away, go away
Watch out, I can tell you’ve been walking on shifting grounds
I can see you’ve been searching for help
Looking for it in all the wrong places
It’s not quite the right pill to swallow
If there could have been one more night
If the sun and moon said goodbye
A second chance, a single thread of hope
If I could of, would of, should of
But I didn’t
Waited for the sky to fall
Waited for the sky to fall
Watched you fall down
I know this hurts and it feels like hell
Why won’t this go away?
Please make it stay away
Just go away, go away—away
I want to believe
But something in your eye leads me
To believe
If you stay on this path
You’ll be six feet deep instead
I’ll hold you up
When you’re in doubt
It doesn’t have to be so bad
Life is so short it’s so damn short
But it’s the longest race we run
(I want to believe...)
Life fades into a memory
Watched you knock on death's door almost every day
In and out of control
Watched you fade away
(Fade away, fade away)
It’s not right to take the blame in any way
But we didn’t help you in any case
What we’d do to see and hear you speak again
I feel my lungs give way from the earth above me
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep, I can’t breathe
Waited for the sky to fall
Waited for the sky to fall
Waiting for the sky to fall
Kill everything that holds you
Death wears a blindfold
These scars will mend
