Pale (The White Session - Live)

When morning awakes and the queen arises
She swallows her man, the king of the night
And nobody sees that he′s been there, alone
Waiting for her to come back home

It's obvious
It was love at first sight
The moon drenched in red, overwhelmed by her light
And I know you know they are like you and me
But we only see
What we want to see

The night appears in shades of grey
But colours don′t sleep
They just wait for the day

Pale is my skin
But deep down within
Red water flows
Pale is the shell
But close to the well
There's a lover, a daughter, a sister and a mother

A sister and a mother

The more we know
The more we forget
We're ready to lose
All we once had
Just to taste something new
Just to fall in a flash
And rise like a phoenix out of our ashes

I′ve covered my bruises
I′ve covered my sins
I learned how to fly
Without tellin'
Anybody who wouldn′t believe me, anyway
So I'll hide all my secrets until they decay

The night appears in shades of grey
But colours don′t sleep
They just wait for the day

Pale is my skin
But deep down within
Red water flows
Pale is the shell
But close to the well

There's a lover, a daughter, a sister and a mother

Pale is my skin
But deep down within
Red water flows
Pale is the shell
But close to the well

There′s a lover, a daughter, a sister and a mother
A sister and a mother
There's a lover and a mother and a brother
A sister and a lover
A lover and a mother and a brother
A sister and a lover
A sister and a lover
