LYRICS
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Legs spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun, yea
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
And all I taught her was everything, that's all
How quick the sun can drive 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
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
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, yea
Uh huh, uh huh, hoo
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
Why can't it be mine
We, we belong, we belong together, together
We, we belong, we belong together, yea
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Legs spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun, yea
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
And all I taught her was everything, that's all
How quick the sun can drive 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
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
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, yea
Uh huh, uh huh, hoo
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
Why can't it be mine
We, we belong, we belong together, together
We, we belong, we belong together, yea
