Analysis of Pale



Pale Mood, pale face,
Pale body, pale place,
I'm so pale from head to toe.
Every pace is way too slow.
What misfortune sows, my touch will reap
My pale mind loses sleep.
Keep this pale punk off the street.
Throw her 'round like a piece of meat.
This pale intelligence looking to duel,
Don't pay attention to this pale fool.
