Black

Hey-hey-hey

Yeah-ah

Sheets of empty canvas

Untouched sheets of clay

Were laid spread out before me

As her body once did

All five horizons revolved around

Her soul as the earth to the sun

Now the air I tasted and

Breathe has taken a turn

Mmm and all I taught her was everything

Mmm-hmm I know she gave

Me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands

Chafe beneath the clouds

Of what was everything

All the pictures had all

Been washed in black

Tattooed everything

I take a walk outside

I'm surrounded by some kids at play

I can feel their laughter

So why do I sear

Mmm and twisted thoughts

That spin 'round my head

I'm spinning oh-oh I'm spinning

How quick the sun can drop away

And now my bitter hands

Cradle broken glass

Of what was everything

All the pictures have

All been washed in black

Tattooed everything

All the love gone bad

Turned my world to black

Tattooed all I see all that I am

All I'll be yeah-yeah

Oh-oh oh-oh ooh

I know someday you'll

Have a beautiful life

I know you'll be a star

In somebody else's sky

But why why why can't it be

Oh can't it be mine

Ooh

Ah yeah

Ah ooh-ooh

Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo

Yeah oohhh

Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo

Yeah
