[Intro]
Hey, hey, yeah

[Verse 1]
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
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore

[Chorus]
And now my bitter hands shade beneath the clouds of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed every day

[Verse 2]
I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play
Oh, I can feel their laughter
Oh, so why do I sear?
Ooh, and twisted thoughts that spin around my head
I'm spinning
Oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can drop away

[Chorus]
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything
[Post-Chorus]
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see
All that I am, all I'll be yeah
Uh huh... Uh huh... Ooh

[Bridge]
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?
Oh... Ohh yeah oh

[Outro]
Do do do do do do do (x20 total) Yeah... Yeah...
Hi. (x6)
Yeah. (x3)
