Eyes once bright are now fading
Pallid ashen face (against my skin)
Staring blindly at some distant place

Underneath the pallid city lights
In the rain of Summerland

under a bleak suns pallid leaden glare
histories great sepulchered masses lie

And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming

Stuck in my own world of pallid abstractions
Forcing out these things to say

Hatching from the seed of your thin mind all night

The pallid flesh, the life, deprived.
The sea, is writhing now,

Pallid white was the color of his lifeless skin
Blue was the color of the morning sky

these words came low and mournfully
From the pallid lips of a youth

Pallid landscapes off my frown
Let me rip you up and down

I guess I passed my chance away
A pallid gray is mostly what I see now
I lived my life and never stopped to close the doors

I can't stand myself this morning, i am practically that boy
No strength to endure, Ghostly insecure, Pallid through lack of choice
This winter

Or 'the haunted palace'
I staggered, as it were, 'pon yon shambled, pallid house
Not in gait, but in the soul

Once her pallid trunk had rotted beyond repair
It happened quite slowly that she gently slipped from God's thoughts

The wind blows down from St George's Hill through to Stanworth Woods,
and to the East, on this grey and pallid dawn the lights from the rigs

So if your party of one's world is pallid
Go plant some paladins packing a palette

Pallid dawning in my mind
I promised to spare them, but if

Pallid limbs in the raven's thrall
Fracture sulfur honey skin

The pallid bloom
Smoke in all the mirrors

Vitamins and strung-out things to say
Pallid clear the sky tonight, I'm writing up the stars
Containing several strands of thought of how I'd talk to Mars

A pallid shape is floating
A lurid shroud of fading life
