Black

[00:20.63] Hey, hey, yeah, uh
[00:23.87] Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
[00:34.17] Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
[00:44.98]
[00:49.05] All five horizons revolved around her soul, as the earth to the sun
[01:01.83] Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn, ooh
[01:13.95] Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
[01:24.44] Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
[01:36.30] And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
[01:44.36] Of what was everything
[01:47.47] Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black
[01:53.31] Tattooed everything
[01:56.98] I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play
[02:09.45] I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?
[02:21.01] Oh and twisted thoughts that spin 'round my head
[02:31.53] I'm spinning, oh I'm spinning
[02:36.92] How quick the sun can drop away
[02:42.07] And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
[02:49.33]
[02:52.89] Of what was everything
[02:54.79] All the pictures have all been washed in black
[03:02.19] Tattooed everything
[03:05.52] All the love gone bad turned my world to black
[03:11.43] Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all that I'll be, yeah
[03:25.78] Oh, oh, ooh
[03:35.12]
[03:38.45] I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
[03:40.94] I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky, but why
[03:50.60] Why, why can't it be, oh can't it be mine?
[03:55.29] Ooh, ah yeah, ah ooh
[04:03.78]
