Black

[00:27.14] Sheets of empty canvas

[00:32.90] Untouched sheets of clay

[00:40.15] Were laid spread out before me

[00:46.39] As her body once did

[00:53.65] All five horizons

[00:58.90] Revolved around her soul

[01:03.04] As the earth to the sun

[01:07.05] Now the air I tasted and breathed

[01:13.30] Has taken a turn

[01:20.30] Oh, and all I taught her was everything

[01:34.71] Oh, I know she gave me all that she wore

[01:45.71] And now my bitter hands

[01:48.96] Chafe beneath the clouds

[01:51.21] Of what was everything

[01:55.96] Oh, the pictures have

[01:58.71] All been washed in black

[02:02.20] Tattooed everything

[02:07.46] I take a walk outside

[02:13.45] I'm surrounded by some kids at play

[02:20.71] I can feel their laughter

[02:26.95] So, why do I sear?

[02:33.70] Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head

[02:43.34] I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning

[02:48.10] How quick the sun can drop away?

[02:59.10] And now my bitter hands

[03:02.35] Cradle broken glass

[03:04.85] Of what was everything

[03:09.35] All the pictures have

[03:12.35] All been washed in black

[03:15.10] Tattooed everything

[03:19.35] All the love gone bad

[03:22.34] Turned my world to black

[03:25.85] Tattooed all I see

[03:29.60] All that I am

[03:31.85] All that I'll be, yeah

[03:54.35] I know someday you'll have a beautiful life

[03:57.10] I know you'll be a star

[04:00.60] In somebody else's sky, but why? Why? Why

[04:10.60] Can't it be, oh, can't it be mine?
