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 breathed has taken a turn.
And all I taught her was everything
I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands shade beneath the clouds
of what was everything
All the pictures have 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. Oh, so why do I sear?
And twisted thoughts that spin around my head
I'm spinning. 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 ever be...
Pearl Jam - Black
