Black

[00:23.99] Sheets of empty canvas

[00:29.29] Untouched sheets of clay

[00:36.20] Were laid spread out before me

[00:42.57] As her body once did

[00:48.95] All five horizons revolved around her soul

[00:59.03] As the earth to the sun

[01:01.70] Now the air I tasted and breathed

[01:07.80] Has taken a turn

[01:15.24] And all I taught her was everything

[01:28.00] I know she gave me all that she wore

[01:38.09] And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds

[01:44.19] Of what was everything

[01:47.90] Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black

[01:53.76] Tattooed everything

[01:59.34] I take a walk outside

[02:04.12] I'm surrounded by some kids at play

[02:11.29] I can feel their laughter

[02:16.87] So why do I sear

[02:24.31] And twisted thoughts that spin 'round my head

[02:32.53] I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning

[02:36.79] How quick the sun can drop away

[02:47.14] And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass

[02:52.99] Of what was everything

[02:56.98] All the pictures have all been washed in black

[03:02.29] Tattooed everything

[03:06.00] All the love gone bad turned my world to black

[03:11.59] Tattooed all I see

[03:15.03] All that I am, all I'll be

[03:37.35] I know someday you'll have a beautiful life

[03:40.53] I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky, but why

[03:48.23] Why, why can't it be, oh can't it be mine?
