Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay,
lace 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.

Oh, and all I taught her was everything.
Oh,How quick the sun can drop away...
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
of what was everything?
Oh, 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, so why do I sear?

Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round 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.[note lack of question mark]
Oh, my 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

Oh oh Oh oh ooo

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?

Do do do do do do do (yeah) (until fade)
