[Verse 1]
You call me selfish
And I'm irrational
But there's grains of truth in everything I say
You and your fences
No, I can't break them down
I've been waiting for the padlocks to rust away
[Pre-Chorus]
All is almost lost
Armor on the ground
I will raise my hands and take my chances naked
All is almost lost
Can't you see the dust on the horizon?
Don't you see that they are coming for us?
[Chorus]
Pale, pale horses come closer every day
Closing in on us
I can hear, I can hear the
Pale, pale horses pull-pulling you away
Kicking up the dust
I can hear, I can hear the
[Verse 2]
We were a religion
You were losing faith
I am down here on my knees for mercy now
All over my skin
Are traces of you, baby
I need you to get back to me
I need you to get back to me somehow
[Pre-Chorus]
All is almost lost
Can't you see the dust on the horizon?
Don't you see that they are coming for us?
[Chorus]
Pale, pale horses come closer every day
Closing in on us
I can hear, I can hear the
Pale, pale horses pull-pulling you away
Kicking up the dust
I can hear, I can hear
[Post-Chorus]
Don't, don't turn away
Don't leave me out here, I need you to stay
I can hear, I can hear the
Pale, pale horses come closer every day
Closing in on us
I can hear, I can hear
[Bridge]
Way back when we used to be friends
We used to make love like fire, ah
Way back when I used to be yours
We used to be fine, can we go back? Ha
Way back when we used to be friends
We used to make love like fire, ah
Way back when I used to be yours
We used to be fine, can we go back? Ha
We used to be fine, can we go back? Ah
We used to be, used to be, go back (We used to be oh)
[Chorus]
Pale, pale horses come closer every day
Closing in on us
I can hear, I can hear the
Pale, pale horses pull, pulling you away
Kicking up the dust
I can hear, I can hear
[Post-Chorus]
Don't, don't turn away
Don't leave me out here, I need you to stay
I can hear, I can hear the
Pale, pale horses come closer every day
Closing in on us
I can hear, I can hear the
