I think it is a metaphor to how people are today: spending so much time conforming to what others accept and in that manner they pale who they are to become someone else and by doing so they lose the "color" of life they were destined to have...and the tug and pull of life on each individual makes it hard not to fade away...but Maria was never meant to be a background person. :)
Maybe she's saying that pale people have no color. The opposite of pale is colorful,full of life,full of feeling,ranges,vibrancies,extensions of heart of soul.Maybe she's saying it's not easy to be color full in a crowd - 'world' that is pale (low on feeling) Maybe the color full begin to lose color..who doesn't need color..who doesn't need life..don't we all need it.Maybe shes saying sometimes her color is used up or if held inside it dies and then she too dissolves into the pale. ? Maybe...
in my understanding i think PALE PEOPLE is weak people who just give up easily and as for maria she is somewhat in the song the absorber of the weakness and then he fades too!
i think it's supposed to be about people who suddenly fades in the background cause they don't really like what they're doing??i dunno not really sure, haha
You should be the person in your life that is the most important, so pale means to you, what makes sense to you. Don't mind people who are unable to respect you for liking something without putting a meaning into every piece of it.
2) Maria thinks of herself as neither, and being in the middle of those two makes her crazy.
It's a classical problem for special people who feel the mean crowd are full of shit, while at the same time, the odd crowd also being full of shit. Mena is seeking another box to fit into, but it doesn't exist. Maria can invent it, and produce it herself, and this is basically what she does with her ground breaking new music.
1) What "pale" is to Mena we can understand from the second and third verse of the second paragraph:
"And I know that you fit in but Im not you
And somewhere in the middle I go crazy"
Pale is two things. An average person helplessly lost into the mean crowd afraid to stick out, and; A non average person helplessly unable to fit into the mean crowd.
White skin pale people are the prettiest!

3) I hope I didn't offend anybody by this analytic flood of text. Well, actually, I hope you do. I know I'm good at it and Maria is too.
